Malaysia will broadcast the FIFA World Cup 2026 free of charge across multiple platforms, with Malaysians encouraged to download the RTM Klik app to ensure they do not miss the matches.
Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil said the tournament will be shown on Radio Televisyen Malaysia (RTM) and Unifi TV, which are the official broadcasters in Malaysia.
“This is the first time in 20 years that we are providing World Cup broadcasts for free for all Malaysians.
“What do Malaysians need to do to ensure they do not miss watching for free? Download RTM Klik, or you can watch anywhere through MyTV and RTM,” he said after attending the Communications Ministry monthly assembly for May 2026.
He added that all 104 matches will be broadcast live on Unifi TV, while RTM will carry most matches either live or on delay.
Fahmi also said Malaysians will have access across free-to-air and digital platforms including MyTV, RTM Klik and Unifi TV, ensuring wider coverage of the tournament.
The minister said RTM and Unifi TV have been asked to ensure smooth broadcast delivery so that viewers can enjoy the tournament without disruption.
“I ask that this is looked into to ensure there are no excessive barriers for Malaysians to enjoy the live broadcast,” he said.
He also confirmed that several programmes will be organised ahead of the tournament’s kick-off.
The FIFA World Cup 2026 will be co-hosted by the United States, Mexico and Canada, with the opening match set to take place in Mexico City on June 11 and the final scheduled in New Jersey on July 19.
