SiriusXM and the CFL ink a three-year agreement that will allow subscribers to listen to all CFL games from across the league including playoffs and Grey Cup

TORONTO (August 4, 2021) – SiriusXM Canada, the country’s leading audio entertainment company, today announced it has renewed a multi-year agreement with the Canadian Football League (CFL) and will offer subscribers across North America every game through to the 2023 CFL season.

Every regular and post-season game, including the 108th Grey Cup in Hamilton, will be available live to SiriusXM satellite and streaming subscribers on Canada Talks (channel 167). French-language broadcasts of Montréal Alouettes games can be heard on Influence Franco (channel 174).

In addition, SiriusXM will once again showcase Canadian talent at the 108th Grey Cup with the SiriusXM Kickoff Show. An integral part of the Grey Cup, the Kickoff Show brings world-renowned artists to the stage at Canada’s biggest party, from Dean Brody to Alessia Cara to The Reklaws.

“We’re pleased to partner with the CFL once again, and to bring every moment of CFL action back to our subscribers,” said John Lewis, SVP Programming & Operations, SiriusXM Canada. “Canadians are passionate about football and SiriusXM is excited to contribute to that passion by connecting fans to their favourite team wherever they go.”
