SVT Sport Signs an Exclusive Agreement with the Gotland Grand National for 2022 and 2023!
SVT Sport and Nordic Sport & Event AB have signed an exclusive two-year agreement for the broadcast rights to the world’s largest enduro race, the Gotland Grand National. SVT Sport will air a live broadcast lasting approximately 4.5 hours, divided into 1.5 hours in the morning and about 3 hours during the elite race.
“SVT is continuing its commitment to the Gotland Grand National, and we have now signed a two-year agreement with the organizer, Nordic Sport & Event, under which we will offer our viewers extensive live coverage on TV and on SVT Play,” says Jan Olsson of SVT Sport.
“We’ve been working with SVT Sport for many years, and it feels absolutely fantastic that we’ve now been able to sign a two-year agreement,” says Conny Bohlin, CEO of Nordic Sport & Event. “In 2021, we had our best broadcasts ever, with 14 different camera angles, and now our efforts for 2022 will be even greater, with even more and new camera angles for viewers,” concludes Conny Bohlin.
"The agreement also means that Nordic Sport & Event and SVT Sport are exploring the possibility of making the Gotland Grand National available outside Sweden's borders, and our plan is to have this in place in time for the 2022 GGN," says Conny Bohlin.
