Looking for a Black Friday deal for Peacock, the NBC-owned streaming platform that shows the Tour de France in the US? There isn't one, and there won't be one, but don’t worry, we’ve found a neat workaround.
Step forward, Walmart+, the membership plan from the retailing giant. You’ll get free deliveries on your shopping and savings on your gas, but you’ll also get a Peacock subscription thrown in as well.
Walmart+ is running a Black Friday promotion, and it’s a good one. Annual memberships are currently half price, now just $49 for a full year.
If you were to sign up for a year’s worth of coverage directly through Peacock, it would cost you $109.99. So this is a great chance to shore up your 2026 WorldTour cycling season viewing for a fraction of the standard cost.
The main draw for Peacock, when it comes to cycling, is the Tour de France, but it doesn’t stop there.
NBC is the rights-holder for the full suite of ASO races, which includes Paris-Roubaix, the Vuelta a España, Paris-Nice, and Liège-Bastogne-Liège.
NBC and Peacock’s 2026 coverage will start with the Tour Down Under in Australia in January before two WorldTour stage races in the form of Paris-Nice and the Volta a Catalunya. In the spring, Peacock has the men’s and women’s Paris-Roubaix – arguably the most highly-anticipated Classic of the year – followed by La Flèche Wallonne and Liège-Bastogne-Liège.
The women’s Vuelta follows, ahead of the Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes (formerly known as the Critérium du Dauphiné). July is the best month to be a Peacock subscriber, with start-to-finish live streams, plus NBC’s commentary and analysis, for every stage of the Tour de France and Tour de France Femmes.
There’s still time for another Grand Tour in August and September with the men’s Vuelta a España, while the gravel Classic Paris-Tours rounds out the season in October.
And cycling’s not the only thing you can watch on Peacock. You can also get NBA, NFL, Premier League soccer, and a heap of movies and TV shows.
Get Peacock Premium with the Walmart+ half-price deal now.
