Keep reading to learn how and when to watch the 2024 Emmy Awards. You can even watch the show for free without cable.
How and when to watch the 2024 Emmy Awards
The Emmy Awards will air on Sunday, September 15, 2024, from 8-11 p.m. ET (5-8 p.m. PT). The show will air on ABC, and stream on Sling the platforms featured below.
How and when to watch the 2024 Emmy Awards game without cable
While many cable packages include ABC it's easy to watch the show if ABC isn't included in your cable TV subscription, or if you don't have cable at all. Your best options for watching are below. (Streaming options will require an internet provider.)
Sling: The most cost-effective way to network TV without cable
If you don't have cable TV that includes ABC, one of the most cost-effective ways to stream the Emmy Awards, NFL football and college football this season, is through a subscription to Sling. Sports fans, we suggest leveling up your coverage to the Orange + Blue with Sports Extra tier to get more NFL and college football games this fall.
The Orange + Blue plan regularly costs $60 per month, but the streamer currently offers a 50% off promotion for your first month, so you'll pay just $30. The Orange + Blue with Sports Extra plan is $45 for your first month and $75 per month after. The Sports Extra add-on features 18 channels, including NFL Redzone, ESPNU, SEC Network, Big 10 Network and ACC Network, making it ideal for pro and college football fans.
The streamer is also currently offering big savings on four months of the Orange + Blue tier plus the Sports Extra plan when you prepay for the Sling TV Season Pass. The plan costs $219, reduced from $300.
Note: Because Sling TV does not carry CBS, Sling subscribers will want to add Paramount+ to their bundle. (Paramount+ and CBS Essentials are both subsidiaries of Paramount Global.)
Top features of Sling TV Orange + Blue plan:
- Sling TV is our top choice for streaming major sporting events like NASCAR.
- There are 52 channels to watch in total, including local ESPN, NBC, Fox and ABC affiliates (where available).
- You get access to most local NFL games and nationally broadcast games at the lowest price.
- All subscription tiers include 50 hours of cloud-based DVR storage.
- You can add Golf Channel, NBA TV, NHL Network, NFL RedZone, MLB Network, Tennis Channel and more sports-oriented channels (18 in total) via Sling TV's Sports Extras add-on.

Live TV streaming service Fubo offers the same top-tier programming you can get from your local cable provider at a fraction of the price. The streamer is a TV lover's dream considering the sheer volume of network TV you can watch on it.
