How to Watch Wimbledon in Australia
Stan Sports
If you’re already paying for Stan Sports, you can enjoy this Grand Slam event live or on demand. You’ll need a Stan account with the Sports add-on package to watch Wimbledon. If you’ll be traveling abroad during the tournament, you can use CyberGhost VPN to connect to a streaming-optimized server for Stan to ensure uninterrupted access to your account outside of Australia.
Traveling to Australia?
If you’ll be traveling to Australia during Wimbledon, you won’t be able to access your preferred streaming accounts from home, such as BBC iPlayer, ESPN, discovery+, or beIN Sports. Don’t worry, though – CyberGhost VPN can help. Connect to a VPN server from your home country to change your virtual location so you can access your streaming accounts as normal, and watch Wimbledon from Australia.
Why You Need a VPN to Stream Wimbledon in Australia
Many offices and schools have local network restrictions that block streaming apps and websites. A VPN encrypts your connection, hiding your activity. If the network can’t detect what you’re doing, it won’t block you from enjoying Wimbledon.
VPN encryption is also important for maximizing bandwidth, as many home and mobile ISPs will slow down your internet speed during peak hours if they detect that you’re streaming. If they can’t see that you’re streaming, they won’t enforce activity-based throttling, allowing you to enjoy every ace in the highest quality available.
CyberGhost VPN has streaming-optimized servers for many major platforms that will be showing Wimbledon, like 9Now, BBC iPlayer, ESPN+, discovery+, and beIN Sports. These servers are tested periodically to ensure they work with these services, allowing you to connect as usual and watch tennis even if you’re traveling outside of your home country.
