The 2024 Giro d'Italia racers have officially passed the halfway point of the iconic course, and the competition is heating up. We'll show you everything you need to know about where to watch Giro d'Italia live streams, including free options that will also work for this summer's Tour de France.

The Giro d'Italia spans the length of Italy and is the first of the three famous Grand Tour races that define the spring and summer cycling season. It began on May 4 and will run until May 26. The Tour de France picks up in July, followed by the Vuelta a España in August. The Italian race is broken up into 21 long, grueling stages, with a particularly intense stretch through the Alps. Last year's victor, Primož Roglič, is sitting out this year's race to train for the Tour de France, so a new champion will emerge on May 26.

The race is held almost every day, except a few Mondays, so it's a busy viewing schedule for fans. If you're in the US, the races start pretty early. Luckily, the American streaming option we've highlighted saves the races on-demand, so you can always watch them later if you'd rather sleep in. Keep reading to learn everything you need to know about live streaming the 2024 Giro d'Italia.
