The super-exciting seven-a-side series is underway, but there are still plenty of matches to enjoy, so sit back and let us show you where to watch the Olympics rugby live streams for free, wherever you are in the world. This guide covers both the men's and women's series. The men's ends on Saturday, and the women's starts on Sunday.
The group stages have just wrapped up this morning, with all the big teams making it through to this afternoon's quarter-finals including hosts France, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Ireland, and Argentina. The USA are also through in style with Perry Baker scoring a record four tries against Uruguay following an impressive draw against France yesterday.
The Olympics is being streamed for free in various countries around the world. If you want a piece of the action gratis, too, we can help you bypass geo-blocks that would usually stop overseas viewers from accessing the free Olympics rugby live streams. A VPN (virtual private network) changes the digital location of your viewing device (phone, laptop, Fire TV Stick, etc) to a country of your choosing, unlocking the international options from the box below, along with a range of other international streaming options.
There's no free local option in the US, but Peacock is covering every Olympic event and is very affordable at just $7.99 a month for the ad-supported tier. Or you can bump up to $13.99 to skip ads. If you plan to keep the service longer, there's a decent discount when you opt for the annual plans. If you only want it for the Olympics, you're free to cancel the monthly plan any time you like, with no commitment required.
Some Olympic coverage will also be broadcast on TV via NBC and the USA Network, but only for select events. If you don't mind missing some of the action and want a more comprehensive cable alternative, you can try a live TV package like Sling or Fubo.
The UK's BBC will cover every rugby sevens game at the Paris Olympics for free via the BBC iPlayer. The BBC will cover all the major Olympic events, which makes it one of the best free options around the world. Better yet, it has zero ads. Just create a free account, and you're all set.
If you're not in the UK right now and looking for a VPN-compatible option, the UK is a great pick. You can also use it for free coverage of the Six Nations early next year, as the BBC and ITVX share coverage for the whole tournament.
In Australia, all of the Olympics will be shown on the popular free streaming service 9Now. You will need to create a free account and sign in before you can watch. Like the BBC in the UK, this option is also compatible with a VPN if you're not in Australia right now.
If you're not currently in one of the countries mentioned above and are struggling to find a decent option locally, you can use a VPN to temporarily change your viewing device's location to act as if you were located elsewhere. VPNs are an essential tool for any sports fan nowadays, as shown in our vast collection of streaming guides. They're not just great for streaming, as they protect your digital privacy online on all your devices at home and, more importantly, on vulnerable public WiFi.
If you fancy taking one for a spin, I recommend ExpressVPN. It's an efficient, user-friendly option that I've been using for years, and it has a 30-day money-back guarantee policy. You can find full details in our ExpressVPN review.
Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.

Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Australia, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming.

England and New Zealand are back in action again this weekend as their test series in the Southern Hemisphere continues. The first match at the Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin was an absolute cracker, as the All Blacks came from behind in the latter stages to squeeze home with the narrowest of 16-15 victories.
Steve Borthwick's side will be keen on getting their own back having matched their hosts in almost every department, and the England head coach's team selection shows that he believes his squad have the capability to topple the All Blacks.
It looks an impossible task for England as they prepare to end 30 years of All Black dominance in Auckland, but their close-run defeat in the first Test will have the travelling fans dreaming of an unforgettable upset from Steve Borthwick's side, to level the series and create an iconic piece of history.
Sky Sports hold the rights to England's summer international matches. The pay TV broadcaster will be showing the match live with build-up and post-match analysis either side of the 80 minutes, on both Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Action.
