2 Ways to watch Olympics on FireStick
I have discussed two methods to watch Olympics on FireStick, these methods are:
Since the free method of watching Olympics on FireStick does not hold proper licensing, It is strictly advised that you use a VPN on your FireStick device.
Our Recommended VPN - ExpressVPN
ExpressVPN is our recommended choice when it comes to unblocking any geo-restricted services OR watching anything for free using unofficial apps/websites as it helps you hide your streaming activities from the ISPs and Government.
Get ExpressVPN today to enjoy 3 extra months free. It also offers a 30-day money-back guarantee policy that allows you to access all features risk-free for 30 days.
Watch Olympics on FireStick with Amazon Silk Browser
The free method to watch Olympics on FireStick is with the help of Silk Browser. This free method is recommended by us as there isn’t any subscription or payment required.
Make sure you install and use expressvpn on firestick before you stream anything on FireStick. Once you do that, follow these steps:
Step 1: Open Firestick Home
Step 2: Select the Find menu
Step 3: Click on the Search option
Step 4: Type “Internet Browser” and select it from the list
Step 5: Select the Internet icon when the below screen appears
Step 6: Click on “Download” and wait for the app to install
Step 7: Wait until the download is completed
Step 8: Select Open to access the installed browser
Step 9: Once the browser opens, click on Accept Terms
Step 10: By default Bing.com tab would be open
Step 11: Write the URL livetv.sx/enx OR 720pstream.tv in the URL bar and click Go

Watch Olympics on FireStick with YouTube TV
The free method to watch Olympics on FireStick with Amazon Silk Browser is an easy method and can be accessed by anyone. However, sometimes there is a glitch with Silk Browser or you are just unable to use this method.
In that case, there must be some alternative to make sure you don’t miss a single Olympic match. So there are several premium apps such as Hulu TV, Sling TV, or YouTube TV to stream all the Olympics matches. But you have to buy a subscription to these services.
I am using YouTube TV here in this guide to watch Olympics on FireStick. You can watch it using The Olympics Channel on YouTube TV. Don’t forget to install and use expressvpn on firestick as YouTube TV is only available in the US. VPN is necessary to bypass geo-restrictions.
After that, follow these steps:
Step 1: Click the Search icon (magnifying glass) from the top left corner of your FireStick home screen
Step 2: Type YouTube TV in the search bar and click the relevant results
Step 3: Click the YouTube TV icon among the other apps
Step 4: Click the Download or Get button
Step 5: Wait for the app to be downloaded on your FireStick. This may take a while
Step 6: After the app is successfully installed, click Open
Step 7: Enjoy watching Olympics on FireStick with YouTube TV
Step 8: YouTube TV offers a free 14 day trial for new users. You can avail of it by hitting the option Try it for free.
So this was about the premium method of watching the Olympics on FireStick. I have used YouTube TV. You can use any other similar app for streaming the Olympics.
