important sporting events that attracted a large number of spectators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the most popular sports vary by country, some general trends stand out: in Latvia, ice hockey takes the lead, in Lithuania,&nbsp;it\u2019s&nbsp;basketball and football,&nbsp;whereas&nbsp;in Estonia, watching sports is a less common pastime.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we will take a detailed look at the most watched sports events in the Baltic States, as well as&nbsp;provide&nbsp;an overview&nbsp;of&nbsp;global trends to understand which sporting events attracted the most viewers elsewhere in the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Latvia: The Dominance of Ice Hockey and the Popularity of Other Sports&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s&nbsp;no surprise that the most&nbsp;watched sports broadcasts&nbsp;in Latvia in 2024 were related to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/go3.lt\/categories\/ice-hockey,category-4699679\">ice hockey<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the 2023 World Championship in Tampere, in the game for 3<sup>rd<\/sup>&nbsp;place, the Latvian national ice hockey team defeated the USA team with a score 4:3&nbsp;and for the first time in history won bronze medals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Back then, after the Latvian hockey players won bronze, congratulations were sent to our national team on social media from all over the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, it is only natural that the 2024 World Ice Hockey Championship was one of the most watched sports events in Latvia, and many games achieved significant viewing time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>TOP 5&nbsp;Most&nbsp;Watched Latvian&nbsp;Ice&nbsp;Hockey&nbsp;Games at the World Championship:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Latvia vs. Slovakia <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Latvia vs. France <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Poland vs. Latvia <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Latvia vs. USA <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Kazakhstan vs. Latvia <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This data clearly shows that Latvian sports fans follow hockey closely and watch their national team\u2019s games with great enthusiasm.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It should be noted that broadcasts of other hockey games also generated great interest, such as Latvia\u2019s U20 World Championship quarterfinal match against Germany&nbsp;and the decisive match of the IIHF Olympic Qualifying Tournament, where Latvia defeated France on September 1.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ice hockey in Latvia is more than just a sport \u2013 it has become a powerful symbol of national identity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the dominance of ice hockey,&nbsp;other sports, such as games of <a href=\"https:\/\/go3.lt\/categories\/uefachampionsleague,category-6886205\">UEFA Champions League<\/a> and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/go3.lt\/categories\/euroleague,category-4699660\">EuroLeague<\/a>&nbsp;Basketball, were also among the most watched sporting events:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Real Madrid vs. Manchester City <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Real Madrid vs. Bayern Munich<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>EuroLeague&nbsp;Semifinal: Panathinaikos vs. Fenerbahce<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Although ice hockey is the most popular sport in Latvia, international football and basketball competitions are still able to attract large audiences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lithuania: Popularity of Football and Basketball<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To our&nbsp;neighbors&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;in Lithuania&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;the greatest interest among sports fans was generated by the European Football Championship.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Football is becoming increasingly popular in this country, and major European football tournaments attract significant viewership.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the most watched broadcasts were related to the European football finals, and the TOP 5&nbsp;looks&nbsp;like&nbsp;as&nbsp;follows:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Spain vs. England <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Netherlands vs. England <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Spain vs. France <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Portugal vs. France<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Portugal vs. Slovenia <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, <a href=\"https:\/\/go3.lt\/categories\/basketball,category-4699651\">basketball<\/a> has always been an important sport in Lithuania, and this trend&nbsp;generally continued&nbsp;in 2024 as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"670\" height=\"370\"

Kaunas&nbsp;\u201c\u017dalgiris\u201d&nbsp;and Vilnius&nbsp;\u201cRytas\u201d.&nbsp;Statistics from 2024 further confirm this:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>\u201c\u017dalgiris\u201d vs. \u201cRytas\u201d <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\u201c\u017dalgiris\u201d vs. \u201cRytas\u201d

Dominika\u00a0Banevi\u010d, known by her stage name\u00a0\u201cNicka\u201d,\u00a0gained significant popularity among viewers in Lithuania after becoming the silver medalist in breakdancing at the Paris Olympic Games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Estonia: Less Interest in Sports Broadcasts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike Latvia and Lithuania, sports broadcasts in Estonia&nbsp;failed to&nbsp;enter the TOP 200 of the country\u2019s most watched television&nbsp;programmes&nbsp;in 2024.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most watched sports broadcast was\u00a0the European Football Championship\u00a0Final between Spain and England, but other championship games also attracted moderate audiences:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>France vs. Belgium <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Croatia vs. Italy <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>England vs. Slovakia <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>England vs. Switzerland<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In Estonia in 2024, <a href=\"https:\/\/go3.lt\/categories\/football,category-4699682\">football<\/a> remained popular, but other sports&nbsp;programmes&nbsp;also drew viewers\u2019&nbsp;attention.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"670\" height=\"370\"

Estonian men\u2019s basketball team won their third qualifying game for the 2025 European Championship in November, defeating Poland 82:78.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The victory marked a major step forward for the Estonians on their path to the 2025 European Championship \u2013 a goal they&nbsp;ultimately achieved.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;relatively lower&nbsp;viewership of sports broadcasts in Estonia compared to Latvia and Lithuania may be attributed to the absence of internationally competitive hockey and basketball teams capable of drawing&nbsp;a&nbsp;significant fan attention.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Global Trends and the Most Watched Sports Events in the World<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the most watched broadcasts in the Baltic States, several global sporting events took place in the world in 2024, attracting hundreds of millions of viewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s&nbsp;begin with the&nbsp;UEFA European Football Championship, which became one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/go3.lt\/sports\">most-streamed sporting events<\/a>, even surpassing the&nbsp;Paris 2024 Olympics&nbsp;in global viewership.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to available data, the&nbsp;UEFA Euro 2024&nbsp;football tournament reached over 5 billion viewers worldwide,&nbsp;representing&nbsp;approximately 84% of the global audience potential.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;Paris 2024 Olympics&nbsp;also attracted a similar audience, reaching 5 billion viewers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While both events had&nbsp;a&nbsp;remarkable global reach,&nbsp;UEFA Euro 2024&nbsp;may have slightly edged out the Olympics in terms of total viewership.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile,&nbsp;Super Bowl LVIII&nbsp;became the most-watched television broadcast since 1969, drawing an average of 123.7 million viewers across all platforms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s&nbsp;not forget the historic&nbsp;Super Bowl&nbsp;game of 2024, where the Kansas City Chiefs triumphed over the San Francisco 49ers in a dramatic 25:22 overtime victory.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;boxing match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul, streamed on Netflix, also made history as the platform\u2019s most-watched live event, drawing an average of 108 million global viewers and 65 million concurrent streamers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, the&nbsp;2024 NCAA Women\u2019s Basketball Championship Final&nbsp;attracted 18.7 million viewers in the United States, becoming the most-watched women\u2019s basketball game in US history.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The year 2024 in the Baltic States was rich in various important sporting events that attracted a
