TLN will provide Italian and Spanish coverage of next month’s winter Olympics in Pyeongchang and the 2020 summer Games in Tokyo. TLN will also broadcast Portuguese coverage of Tokyo 2020.
During Pyeongchang 2018, TLN will provide coverage of one game per day from the men’s or women’s ice hockey tournaments in Italian and Spanish. Daily encore broadcasts and daily highlights will also be aired during the Games, which run from February 9-25.
