With no free-to-air TV coverage of Glasgow 2026, being able to tune in to radio broadcasts of the action from the athletics arena, the pool, the velodrome and all the other venues is even more important.
For the first time since 1954, the BBC will not be providing live coverage of the Games. TNT Sports has exclusive TV rights for Glasgow 2026, while talkSPORT is the radio broadcast partner.
Natalie Sawyer and London 2012 gold medallist Greg Rutherford lead the radio coverage for those who want to catch all the big moments, across all 10 sports, without turning on their TV.
Radio Times brings you all the ways you can listen to Commonwealth Games 2026 action via radio and online.
