Comcast has announced a new agreement to bring Monumental Sports Network, the premier regional sports network for the Washington Capitals, Wizards, and Mystics, to its Ultimate TV level of service starting September 15, 2025. The move ensures that fans of these beloved D.C.-area teams can continue enjoying live games, in-depth analysis, and exclusive content through their Comcast subscriptions. Additionally, Comcast is offering Popular TV customers a free preview of Monumental Sports Network through September 30, along with promotional offers for those who wish to continue accessing the network after the preview period.
A Comcast spokesperson shared details of the agreement with Cord Cutters News, stating, “We’re pleased to have reached an agreement with Monumental Sports Network, home to the Washington Capitals, Wizards, and Mystics, to make it available on our Ultimate TV level of service effective September 15. Our viewership information shows that the majority of customers who watch Monumental Sports Network already subscribe to Ultimate TV, so there will be no impact to them. Popular TV customers will receive a free preview through September 30 so they may enjoy some of the Capitals’ pre-season games. Promotional offers are available for those who want to continue watching.”
The addition of Monumental Sports Network to the Ultimate TV tier aligns with Comcast’s commitment to delivering premium sports content to its subscribers. The network, which serves as the go-to destination for Washington, D.C. sports fans, broadcasts live games, pre- and post-game shows, and exclusive behind-the-scenes coverage of the NHL’s Washington Capitals, NBA’s Washington Wizards, and WNBA’s Washington Mystics. With the 2025-2026 NHL and NBA seasons approaching, the timing of this agreement ensures fans won’t miss a moment of the action.
For Popular TV customers, the free preview period through September 30 offers a chance to experience Monumental Sports Network’s offerings, including early Capitals pre-season games, at no additional cost. This strategic move allows Comcast to introduce the network to a broader audience while giving subscribers the opportunity to explore its value before deciding on promotional upgrade options starting October 1.
This agreement underscores Comcast’s focus on enhancing its sports entertainment offerings while catering to the passionate D.C. sports community. Fans can look forward to cheering on their teams with uninterrupted access to Monumental Sports Network’s comprehensive coverage, starting September 15.
