Astro customers can look forward to nationwide watch parties, the premiere of PL, I Love You, and all 380 Premier League matches LIVE throughout the season

KUALA LUMPUR, 22 August 2026 – As Astro celebrates 30 years of bringing Malaysians together through shared sporting moments, we are excited to welcome the new Premier League season with football legends, fresh expert voices and comprehensive coverage of world-class football.

To mark the start of the new season, Astro hosted a season kick-off watch party that brought together Astro customers, fans, partners, and distinguished guests. The event was headlined by former England goalkeeper David Seaman, who joined fans for a meet-and-greet session ahead of the evening's Premier League clash between Hull City and Manchester United. Guests also got the chance to meet Astro's newest pundit, Danny Simpson. The evening also featured special appearances by the cast of PL, I Love You, a local drama series created in collaboration with the Premier League that premieres on 30 September on Astro Ria (CH 104), Astro GO and Sooka.

Agnes Rozario, Chief Content Officer of Astro, said, “The Premier League has always been more than what happens on the pitch. The League demonstrates competition at its highest level and traditions that have become such a big part of a football fan’s daily life. It's about the shared moments, conversations, and experiences that bring fans together which we are committed to delivering to our customers and fans. As we celebrate Astro's 30th anniversary, we're also excited to offer all Astro customers complimentary access to our full channel line-up including sports, until 16 September, just in time for the start of the new Premier League season.”
