Quick Guide: How to Watch Wimbledon 2024 in Italy

  1. Sign up for PIA VPN and install the app on your device
  2. Connect to a streaming-optimized VPN server in Italy
  3. Watch Wimbledon and cheer on your favorite Italian players!

Why You Need a VPN to Live Stream Wimbledon

Using a VPN to stream Wimbledon is like adding topspin to your serve. VPNs encrypt your internet traffic so that no one can monitor your activity. That means you can shoot past network restrictions at work or school that might block you from streaming the matches. 

VPN encryption also lets you avoid content-based throttling. Your ISP can’t see that you’re streaming, so it won’t slow your connection to preserve bandwidth. You won’t miss a tiebreak due to buffering, even during peak hours. 

If you’re traveling away from Italy during Wimbledon, you might get an error message when you try to log into your streaming account. With a VPN, you can connect to a server back home to access streaming platforms and watch Wimbledon live. 

How to Watch Wimbledon 2024 in Italy

You can watch Wimbledon in Italy with a Sky Italia subscription. The platform broadcasts matches on several Sky Sports channels, including Sky Sport Uno, Sky Sport Tennis, and Sky Sport Arena. Most Centre Court games will be broadcast on Sky Sport 4K.

If you don’t have Sky Italia, you can also watch Wimbledon matches in HD on Now TV with the Now Sports Pass. This costs from €14.99 a month. If you want to stream simultaneously on two devices, you’ll need the Premium package, which costs an extra €5 a month. This still works out cheaper than a Sky Italia subscription.

Traveling abroad during Wimbledon? You may be able to sign in to your streaming accounts in other EU countries, but if you travel further afield you may find your access blocked. Get PIA VPN and connect to a streaming-optimized server in Italy to bypass error messages and stream like you never left home.

If you’re vacationing in Italy during Wimbledon, bear in mind that free streaming options from your home country – such as BBC iPlayer or 9Now – may be blocked. Download PIA VPN on your streaming device and connect to a server in your home country to maintain access to your streaming account.

Italian Players at Wimbledon 

Italy is showing up strong at The Championships this year. Jannik Sinner emerged as the top seed for the tournament, but Lorenzo Musetti and Jasmine Paolini are also seeded players. Those lower down the rankings shouldn’t be discounted though. Matteo Arnaldi has been climbing the ranks to a career high point, and Lorenzo Sonego isn’t far behind. In the women’s game, Elisabetta Cocciaretto and Lucia Bronzetti both have a good shot at making it past the first round.
