Paramount+ and EverPass Media (“EverPass”), a media platform dedicated to commercial businesses, today announced a multi-year distribution agreement allowing EverPass customers to stream all of CBS Sports’ UEFA Champions League matches, that stream on Paramount+, starting on Tuesday, February 18, 2025.

All CBS Sports’ UEFA Champions League matches on Paramount+ will be available to stream via EverPass' platform, providing comprehensive coverage that ensures fans can enjoy every moment of the action. The deal also expands EverPass’ library of live sports content for businesses and includes select CBS Sports ancillary UEFA programming, including The Golazo Show, a whip-around show highlighting every goal from every match.

This is another powerful step in redefining the way premium sports content reaches the commercial market, and we’re thrilled to partner with CBS Sports and Paramount+ to make it happen.”

“Paramount+ is the streaming home to UEFA men’s club competitions and we are always looking for ways to broaden the distribution and increase awareness for Paramount+ as well as maximize the audience for our UEFA Champions League coverage,” said Dan Weinberg, Executive Vice President, Programming CBS Sports. “This partnership with EverPass unlocks a new viewership avenue and allows us to reach the many passionate fans watching out of home.”
