The coverage, to be aired on eight, 24-hour channels will be free to residential Foxtel and Austar sports subscribers, with viewers able to watch all gold medal ceremonies live as well as 1,100 hours of live event coverage.

The coverage will be hosted by Foxtel’s sports commentary team, former Olympians, Matt Shirvington, Susie O’Neill and Kerri Pottharst and television personalities Rove McManus and Eddie Maguire.
