Where to watch the Oscars 2024 — live stream and TV channels, full replay

US actor and Oppenheimer star Robert Downey Jr., wearing a stylish houndstooth jacket and yellow-tinted glasses, attends the Oscars 2024 .

Missed the Oscars 2024? No problem. You can watch a full replay of the 96th Academy Awards for free on ITVX in the UK. You can watch Oscars 2024 replay from anywhere in the world by using a VPN, such as PureVPN, to unblock your usual service. We'll show you how below.

Oh, what a night! The stars glittered, the red carpet was awash with impossibly luxurious fashions, the awards were handed out to the winners and the losers did their best not to look annoyed in arguably their best performances of the year.

But we're not going to spoil the details for you. Instead, you can watch a full replay of the Oscars 2024, see it all for yourself, and skip over all the boring bits as Oppenheimer, Poor Things and Barbie did battle for the gold statues along with all the rest of this year's Oscars nominees.

Here's how to watch the Oscars 2024 in full, and for free, from anywhere in the world.

What TV channel is the Oscars 2024 on?

You can watch the Oscars 2024 on TV channels across the world. In the US, the Oscars is on ABC which you can get through your cable provider. In Canada, you'll need CTV.

In other countries, the Oscars is on free-to-air TV channels, such as ITV1 in the UK and and Channel 7 in Australia.

Where can I watch an Oscars live stream?

Most of the TV channels mentioned above will also have Oscars 2024 live streams too. You can head to ABC's website for the US stream. CTV has on on-demand service too.

For a free Oscars live stream, head to ITVX in the UK and the 7Plus streaming service in Australia.

Can I watch Oscars 2024 without cable?

There are a number of options for cable-cutting services in the US, many of which will allow you to watch the Oscars without cable on ABC. FuboTV is a very complete cable replacement service which offers ABC and a 7-day free trial.

Sling is a cheaper option which currently offers a 50% discount.

Can I watch the Oscars on Netflix?

No. You can't watch the Oscars 2024 on Netflix but plenty of the Oscars 2024-nominated movies and performances are available to view on Netflix. These include NYAD, Maestro, May December, El Conde, Nimona, Rustin and more.

Can I watch the Oscars 2024 for free?

The great news this year is that you can watch the Oscars 2024 for free on some really good streaming services. We'll show you how to tune into the free coverage, even when you're away from home, just below.

Oscars free-to-air TV coverage

The Oscars 2024 is on free-to-air TV in the UK and Australia. These are the TV channels you need to watch the Oscars for free:

UK – ITV

Australia – Channel 7

Oscars 2024 free live streams

Best of all both of the free-to-air channels listed above are available to live stream too. Away from home? Use a VPN to watch a free Oscars live stream from anywhere:

What that means is if you're based in the UK or Australia, but you're abroad right now, you don't have to miss out on the free coverage you'd be getting at home. All you need is a good VPN.

Watch Oscars 2024 from anywhere

Geo-blocking makes it tricky to watch your usual Oscars 2024 live stream when you're away from home but you can get round that problem with a VPN. A VPN can make it appear as if you're in any country you choose.

That means you can watch your free live stream from anywhere, and there's a great deal with one of the best VPNs just in time for the Oscars...

How to use a VPN to stream the Oscars

Three simple steps to using a VPN to watch the 2024 Oscars online:

1. Download and install a VPN - we recommend PureVPN

2. Connect to the relevant server location - launch the VPN app, click on 'choose location' and select the right location i.e. Australia for 7Plus.

3. Head to the chosen broadcaster's live stream - in this case, head to the 7Plus website or app to watch the Oscars.
