Where to Watch the Kenyan Premier League on TV
By Livescore44 Sport Desk · Editorial15 October 20263 min read
Azam TV is the official broadcaster of the Kenyan Premier League, under a 7-year deal signed in August 2023. KBC is the free-to-air partner for selected matches, and highlights are on FKF Digital.
The league runs this season as the SportPesa Premier League, after SportPesa took the title sponsorship. The 2026/27 season kicked off on Friday 9 October 2026, delayed by a court dispute over promotion and relegation, with Kenya Police starting as reigning champions.
Your options
Azam TV (pay TV)
The main way to watch live matches. You need an Azam TV decoder and a package with the sports channels. We have not been able to confirm Azam TV's current Kenyan prices from Azam itself, so we do not list them; check with an Azam dealer or in the Azam TV app before paying.
KBC (free to air)
Selected matches on KBC TV and radio under a partnership signed in November 2023. KBC has not published a 2026/27 schedule yet.
FKF Digital (highlights)
The federation's official digital platform, for highlights and clips after the final whistle.
Kick-off times
Kenyan Premier League matches are played in Kenya, so there is nothing to convert: the times published are East Africa Time. Most weekend matches kick off at 15:00 or 16:00 EAT.
