In this post, I will show you how to watch Winter Olympics 2022 games on FireStick, Android, iPhone, Roku, Android TV, and Apple TV without cable. I will show you how to stream all the games with paid and free options. Let’s get started.
Note: I will keep the post centered on Amazon FireStick. You can use the specified apps on all your smart devices to watch the Winter Olympics 2022 without cable.
You must be wondering, didn’t we just have the Summer Olympics? Originally slated for 2020, the Tokyo Olympics got delayed to 2021, and now we have Winter Olympics to look forward to in Beijing, China. While the last Olympics was delayed due to COVID, there are no signs of delaying the coolest show (pun intended) on Earth. Here’s how you can stream Winter Olympics 2022 without cable.
Attention, FireStick Users!
Governments and ISPs constantly monitor your online activity, and accessing copyrighted content on your Fire TV Stick could lead to serious trouble. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone. I strongly recommend getting the best FireStick VPN to mask your IP address and securely stream your favorites.
I personally use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure VPN available. Not only is it easy to install on any device, it comes with a risk-free 30-day money-back guarantee. Plus, if you're not 100% satisfied, you can always get a refund. ExpressVPN is currently also offering a whopping 3 extra months free on their annual plan!

Winter Olympics 2022 Preview
This is the first time that seven new events will be included in the winter games. Similar to the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, foreign travelers are once again banned from traveling to the venue, so you have no option but to catch all the games at home.
Unlike the last Winter Olympic games, you don’t need a cable connection to watch live games. Cord-cutters have multiple options to watch all the games and cheer for their country’s athletes at home. I will talk about that later in the post, including how to watch if you’re in Canada or the UK. First, let’s check out where the Winter Olympic games are being held and some other details.
Winter Olympics 2022 Details
More than 100 events will be contested at the 2022 Winter Olympics. I won’t list them all, but I’ll quickly mention the most popular ones below.
The Winter Olympics 2022 will start on February 4 and go on till February 20. China is hosting all the games, though they’ll be divided across three venues: Beijing, Yanqiug, and Zhangjiakou.
The official Opening Ceremony will take place on February 4 at 6:30 a.m. ET (it will be rebroadcasted at 8 p.m. ET during primetime in the US). By then, some sports, such as ice hockey, freestyle skiing, and figure skating, will have already begun a day or two before.
