Ahoy, Brick - welcome to
planDisney!
I'm excited to hear that you'll be sailing the high seas on a
Disney Cruise Line sailing very soon. I actually just enjoyed back-to-back sailings on the brand-new
Disney Wish myself. You're going to have a great time!
During my recent sailing, and others I've been on in the past, the crew has actually been able to show some live sporting events. For example, a couple of weeks ago I was lounging on Deck 11 watching the College Football National Championship on Funnel Vision, also known as the huge screen! Some of the lounges have also had live sporting events showing at various times during our sailings.
Brick, while I'd love to be able to tell you that Captain Mickey has you covered for the event you want to catch, it's a bit complicated. There are different licensing agreements, and to complicate things more, as your ship sails across the seas, it might cross into different international waters with different rules!
My best advice is to speak to some of the crew once you get on board and let them know about the event you were hoping to watch. I know they will try their best, but something that's pay-per-view might be a stretch! There are fantastic internet packages available, so if all else fails you can always use that route to keep up with outcomes.
I Disney Wish I could provide you with a more specific answer, but hopefully you still find this information helpful!
