What Channel Are The Pelicans On

Where you can watch the New Orleans Pelicans depends on whether or not you live inside the New Orleans Pelicans TV market (Throughout Louisiana, East Texas, South Alabama, the Florida Panhandle, and most parts of southern Mississippi). If you live inside that market, you can watch Pelicans games on Bally Sports New Orleans using a streaming service that carries the network. However, if you live outside that market, you will need a subscription to NBA League Pass, and a streaming service that carries ESPN, ABC, TNT, and NBA TV. Let’s take a look at your options based on where you live.

Watching Pelicans Games In Market

If you live in the Pelicans TV market, you can watch the Pelicans on Bally Sports New Orleans, the Pelicans regional sports network. If you live in the Pelicans broadcast areas, you can watch their regional sports network without cable on the following streaming services.
