Reserve the best spot on the sofa for Sky Sports Open Day and get ready for a day of sporting action to remember. It’s a chance for all Virgin Media TV customers to enjoy a day of world-class sport at no extra cost. From 6am on Saturday 16th August until 6am on Sunday 17th August even if you don't have a Sky Sports subscription, you could watch all the sporting action across Sky Sports 1 – 5 & F1. Also available to all in HD.
How will it work?
As a Virgin Media TV customer, all you have to do is simply turn to the Sky Sports Channel of your choice and enjoy!
What’s on?
There's plenty of world class sport packed across all six Sky Sports channels. It’s the first day of the 2014/15 Barclays Premier League where Arsenal take on Crystal Palace from 4.45pm, you can see all the action unfold live on Sky Sports 1 HD (Channel 512) or Sky Sports 1 (Channel 502).
If you're a cricket fan, to catch live coverage of the fifth Test between England and India just tune in to Sky Sports 2 HD (Channel 513) or Sky Sports 2 (Sky Channel 502), and with the press of a button you'll be taken to The Oval to watch action from day two.
Other great events on Sky Sports 1 and Sky Sports 1HD include live football from the Sky Bet Championship with Leeds taking on Middlesborough at 12.15pm, and Live Fight Night.
If you're more of a rugby union fan, you can watch rivals Australia take on New Zealand on Sky Sports 2HD at 10.30am.
And on the same channel from 1.00pm there's a treat for golf fans with Live European Tour Golf from the penultimate day of the inaugural Made in Denmark competition. You can also relax and immerse yourself in our coverage of the PGA Tour with the Wyndham Championship on Sky Sports 4HD (Sky Channel 515) and Sky Sports 4 (Sky Channel 505).
And we know you won’t want to miss a moment after the Sky Sports Open Day…
