Sky has plenty to offer during the summer, with great sporting action coming from the worlds of Formula 1, golf, tennis and more.

Check out what’s to come for the month.

Note: Any times and dates listed are as of when coverage starts on Sky Sports, as listed by Sky Sports.

Football on Sky Sports

The European football season is over and with that comes no games on Sky Sports for a little while. 

No panic, of course, as we have the greatest tournament on Earth coming as the World Cup gets underway this month, although no coverage will be found on Sky channels. Check out our guide on how to watch World Cup 2026 to find out where you can tune in.

Formula 1 on Sky Sports

While the car issues most fans have are still lingering, the drivers have been valiant in their efforts of creating an exciting championship. 

Eight races down and, while Kimi Antonelli has a good hold of the championship, the chasing pack are bearing down and ready to pounce, including a certain eight/seven-time world champion.

With three races to come this month before the summer break, July could bring some big twists in the season's tale.

British Grand Prix | Friday 3rd - Sunday 5th | Sky Sports F1 HD

1950 was the year of the first Formula 1 World Championship and the British Grand Prix was the occasion that hosted the first race. 76 years later, Silverstone is once again ready to provide in the way that only the former Royal Air Force station can.

This round will be the fourth Sprint weekend of the year, which means getting ready for excitement on all three days.

• Sprint Qualifying: Friday 3rd at 4:30pm

• Qualifying: Saturday 4th at 4pm

Belgium Grand Prix | Friday 17th - Sunday 19th | Sky Sports F1 HD

As iconic on the calendar as Silverstone and Monaco, Spa is beloved by all. The rain may fall but the excitement always stays high - unless we get another 2021 situation. We pray a day like that never comes again.

Expect a different race than we’ve seen before, though, with the 2026 cars proving to be a battle in themselves during races.

Hungarian Grand Prix | Friday 24th - Sunday 26th | Sky Sports F1 HD

The final race before the summer break emanates from the Hungaroring in Budapest. A fast and fun track and one that Lewis Hamilton has seen a tremendous amount of success at, the potential for a thrilling race is very high.

• Practice Three: Saturday 25th at 11:30am
• Qualifying: Saturday 25th at 3pm
