How to watch NPL 2026: TV channels, live streaming and tickets
Himalaya Television has the TV rights in Nepal, NetTV streams worldwide and eSewa sells tickets. Everything you need to follow Season 3.
The third Nepal Premier League runs from 26 October to 21 November. Here is how to follow every match, in Nepal and abroad.
On television in Nepal
Himalaya Television Network holds the linear TV rights in Nepal for Season 3. The channel won the rights in the Cricket Association of Nepal's (CAN) tender with a bid of about Rs 146.4 million. Red Bull has been announced as a sponsor of the broadcast on Himalaya Sports TV.
Streaming, worldwide
NetTV won the worldwide OTT streaming rights for Rs 180.4 million, the largest single part of this season's rights sales. That means fans outside Nepal, including the large Nepali communities in the Gulf, Malaysia, Australia, the UK and the US, can watch through NetTV's platform.
For comparison, the first season was streamed free on YouTube, where the 2024 final drew millions of viewers. Check NetTV's official channels before the opening match for prices and how to access the stream from your country.
Tickets
Tickets are sold through eSewa, which won the ticketing rights. CAN keeps 95 per cent of ticket revenue and eSewa 5 per cent.
Demand is high. The TU ground holds around 12,000 people, and in the first season tickets for the opening match sold out three days in advance. For the bigger games, especially Match 1 between Lumbini Lions and Sudurpaschim Royals and any match involving David Warner's Kathmandu Gorkhas, it is worth booking as soon as sales open.
In Season 1, ticket prices started at Rs 300 for general entry to league matches, with VIP and season passes available. Prices for this season will be announced on the official channels.
Match times
Single-match days start at 4:30 PM Nepal time. On double-header days, the first match starts at 12:30 PM and the second at 4:30 PM. All playoff matches, including the final on 21 November, start at 4:30 PM.
If you are watching from abroad, remember that Nepal time is 5 hours 45 minutes ahead of GMT.
