The Lightning have teamed up with Scripps Sports to make Bolts television broadcasts available to everyone across the Bay Area and beyond starting with the 2025-26 season. Fans will have a number of ways to watch, including free over the air, cable, satellite or digital streaming. No matter how or where they watch, now Tampa Bay can catch all the action.

How to Watch

Lightning games will air on the newly branded local station, "The Spot - Tampa Bay 66" (WXPX-TV), available free over-the-air in the Tampa Bay area, launching July 1st. Fans can also access the broadcasts via cable, satellite, and other subscription services. Further information on television programming and channels for locations outside the Tampa Bay market will be made available prior to the start of the 2025-26 season. Lightning fans will continue to see the familiar broadcast team of Dave Randorf on play-by-play, Brian Engblom serving as color analyst and Gabby Shirley reporting rinkside.

How to Stream

Fans will have the added convenience of live-streaming Lightning games directly through the official Lightning app with a fan-friendly pricing approach. This streaming experience will be accessible throughout the Bolts' broadcast territory, offering flexibility to watch on various devices wherever fans may be. More detailed information on streaming options will be available closer to the start of the season.
