Where can I watch the 2025 World Series in Canada?

The 121st edition of the World Series, the championship series of Major League Baseball (MLB), will begin on Friday, October 24, 2025. The American League champion Toronto Blue Jays will face the National League champion Los Angeles Dodgers in a best-of-seven series, which could end as late as Saturday, November 1.

In Canada, where Blue Jays franchise owner Rogers Communications owns broadcast rights to the MLB postseason, all World Series games will be available on Sportsnet, the Rogers-owned cable sports channel which is distributed by all major TV service providers in Canada.

If you do not have a subscription to Sportsnet through a TV provider, you can subscribe to a streaming-only version through the Sportsnet+ streaming platform or Prime Video, in both cases starting at $29.99 per month. (All prices are in Canadian dollars before applicable sales taxes, and were last checked October 21, 2025.)

All games will also air on the Fox broadcast network in the United States, which is also available through most Canadian TV service providers, and over-the-air in some Canadian communities in close proximity to the U.S. border.

Rogers is also scheduled — according to TV listings we have seen — to air coverage of at least the first four World Series games on its own over-the-air TV network, Citytv, which (in addition to broadcast coverage in major Canadian cities) is itself available to stream as part of Citytv+, for $9.99 per month with a one-week free trial, on both Prime Video and Citytv+'s own platform. We confirmed during Game 1 that Citytv is carrying the Fox Sports coverage, in order to avail of simultaneous substitution to protect Sportsnet's advertisers, as Rogers has done in the past with American broadcast network feeds of major games involving Canadian teams. Thus, if you want to watch the Canadian-produced telecasts of the series, you will have to do so through Sportsnet.

Quebecor-owned TVA Sports will also air French-language coverage of the series as part of its own arrangements with MLB. (If that is of interest, a streaming version is available for $17.99 per month, directly or through Prime Video.)

When will the games take place?

As announced provisionally by MLB on October 20 (prior to the Blue Jays winning the American League championship), the World Series has been scheduled as follows.

All games will begin shortly after 8:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time / 5:00 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time. If you see an earlier time referenced in promotions, this would refer to pregame coverage (such as Sportsnet's Blue Jays Central, which at least for Game 1 will begin at 6:30 p.m EDT).

• Game 1 – Dodgers at Blue Jays: Friday, October 24
• Game 2 – Dodgers at Blue Jays: Saturday, October 25
• Game 3 – Blue Jays at Dodgers: Monday, October 27
• Game 4 – Blue Jays at Dodgers: Tuesday, October 28
• Game 5 (if necessary) – Blue Jays at Dodgers: Wednesday, October 29
• Game 6 (if necessary) – Dodgers at Blue Jays: Friday, October 31
• Game 7 (if necessary) – Dodgers at Blue Jays: Saturday, November 1

The Blue Jays will host games 1, 2, and potentially 6 and 7 at Rogers Centre in downtown Toronto, Ontario, while Games 3, 4, and potentially 5 would take place at Dodger Stadium in Chavez Ravine, north of downtown Los Angeles, California.

Who is calling the games?

Unlike the 1992 and 1993 World Series, when CTV simulcast the U.S. coverage produced by CBS Sports, or even the Jays' 2015 and 2016 postseason runs, when Sportsnet was required to carry Fox or TBS coverage, Canadian viewers will have two English-language coverage options for watching the 2025 World Series. Sportsnet's current arrangements with Major League Baseball for Canadian rights to the postseason allow the channel to produce its own coverage of Blue Jays games, a privilege not available to any other "local" MLB broadcaster.

If you watch on Sportsnet, you will see and hear the Blue Jays' usual television production with announcers Dan Shulman, Buck Martinez, and field reporter Hazel Mae, as well as studio coverage led by Jamie Campbell.

Alternatively, you can watch the U.S. national broadcast on Fox (and potentially simulcast on Citytv), with announcers Joe Davis, John Smoltz, and field reporters Ken Rosenthal and Tom Verducci. In that regard, you may want to be aware that in addition to his Fox duties, Joe Davis is the Dodgers' usual regional TV announcer during the regular season.

What about Fox One?

While American audiences without over-the-air or cable access to the Fox network will be able to access the games via the new Fox One streaming service, the company has made clear that the service is only available in the United States and its territories. Thus, that will not be an option for Canadian viewers.

But to reiterate what we noted above, for Canadian cord-cutters that want to watch the Fox coverage, they should be able to do so — at a lower cost than Americans would have to pay standalone to watch on Fox One — via Citytv+.
