12 February 2025 - 2:30AM
The Atlanta Dream and Gray Media have renewed their partnership for
the 2025 WNBA season, ensuring that fans across the region can
experience Dream games from their homes. The 2025 Dream season will
tip off on the road against the Washington Mystics on May 16.
“Gray has been a fantastic partner in helping us increase
visibility and support in the market by providing fans direct
access to see our games,” said Dream President and Chief Operating
Officer Morgan Shaw Parker. “Demand for the Dream is at an all-time
high, as evidenced by the full-season 20 game sell out last season,
and broadcast numbers increasing 10x from previous seasons. Having
a partner who is committed to delivering consistent content to our
fans across the Southeast region has been a catalyst for our
continued growth and we are so excited about the 2025 season on
Gray networks.”
Through the Gray partnership, all Dream non-national exclusive
games will be available across the Atlanta market on Peachtree TV’s
free over-the-air broadcasts along with its carriage on all major
cable and satellite pay-tv systems including Xfinity, Spectrum,
DirecTV, and DISH Network. Peachtree TV is also available on
YouTube TV and Hulu Live. In addition, Peachtree Sports Network
will simulcast these games, as well as additional Dream-related
programming, on its television stations in Albany, Augusta,
Columbus, Macon, and Savannah in Georgia.
“The Dream broadcasts on Peachtree TV and Peachtree Sports
Network were a huge hit with basketball fans across the state,”
Vice President and General Manager of WANF/WPCH Erik Schrader said.
“Fans got unprecedented access to the fastest growing professional
sport in America, and we look forward to many more fantastic games
this season.”
