So, I was trying to catch the Ballon d’Or 2023 live stream. You know, the big award for the best football player. I figured it shouldn’t be too hard to find, right?

First, I did a quick search. Turns out, it was going to be on beIN SPORTS. Okay, cool, I thought I had it. But then I realized that I don’t have a subscription for that channel. Bummer!
- Checked for different sports channels I have.
- No luck there either.
Then I remembered seeing something about a YouTube channel. Yeah, the ceremony was supposed to be streamed live on L’equipe’s YouTube channel. And guess what? It was supposed to be free! Score!
I went to YouTube and searched for L’equipe. Found their channel pretty easily. They had a live stream scheduled for the Ballon d’Or. Perfect!
Watching It Live
I ended up watching the whole ceremony on YouTube. It was pretty smooth. No buffering or anything. They had the whole shebang: the red carpet, the interviews, and of course, the awards.
So yeah, that’s how I watched the Ballon d’Or this year. If you missed it and don’t have beIN SPORTS, just head over to L’equipe’s YouTube channel. They might still have the replay up. It’s worth checking out. I felt like I was right there at the event. Pretty awesome experience, if you ask me!
