Citytv+ Review: Verdict, Cost & Sports Coverage
WhereSports Editorial Desk • Audited October 2026
The Verdict
Our Verdict: On its own at $9.99 CAD/month (or $99 CAD/year), Citytv+ is an entertainment and local TV streamer rather than a dedicated sports app—giving Canadian cord-cutters live regional Citytv stations plus Rogers' newly acquired lineup of HGTV, Food Network, Discovery, Bravo, FX, and FXX. Standalone sports are limited to the weekly Saturday night Hockey Night in Canada NHL game that airs on Citytv and The King's Plate horse race. However, if you are already paying $34.99 CAD/month for Sportsnet+ Standard to watch the Blue Jays, Raptors, and NHL, upgrading to the $36.99 CAD/month Sportsnet+ & Citytv+ Bundle gets you the entire Citytv+ channel lineup for just $2 extra a month—making the bundle one of the smartest values in Canadian streaming.

In-Depth Platform Analysis & Coverage
Operated by Rogers Sports & Media, Citytv+ is a direct-to-consumer streaming service that bundles live feeds of regional Citytv stations (across Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, and Saskatchewan) with Rogers' stable of specialty lifestyle and entertainment networks. Following Rogers' blockbuster acquisition of Canadian rights to Warner Bros. Discovery and NBCUniversal lifestyle brands in 2025, a single Citytv+ subscription now includes live channels and on-demand shows from HGTV, Food Network, Discovery, Investigation Discovery (ID), Magnolia Network, Bravo, FX, and FXX alongside CityNews 24/7 and OMNI Television.
If you are looking at Citytv+ through a sports lens, there is a massive difference between the standalone plan and the bundle. On the standalone $9.99 CAD/month tier, you only get the sporting events that air directly on the main over-the-air Citytv television network—most notably the weekly Saturday night Hockey Night in Canada NHL game assigned to Citytv (frequently featuring the Montreal Canadiens, Ottawa Senators, or a secondary Canadian matchup) and Canada's premier thoroughbred horse race, The King's Plate, from Woodbine Racetrack.
Where Citytv+ becomes a home run for sports households is through the $36.99 CAD/month Sportsnet+ & Citytv+ Bundle. Because a standalone Sportsnet+ Standard subscription already costs $34.99 CAD/month in 2026, choosing the bundle adds the entire Citytv+ entertainment and local TV lineup for an extra $2.00 a month. In exchange, you unlock Sportsnet East, Ontario, West, Pacific, Sportsnet One, and Sportsnet 360—giving you all 162 Toronto Blue Jays MLB games, national and in-market NHL games, the entire Stanley Cup Playoffs, Toronto Raptors NBA basketball, and Grand Slam curling.
What We Like (Pros)
- Bundling with Sportsnet+ Standard ($36.99 CAD/mo) costs only $2/mo more than Sportsnet+ alone ($34.99/mo)
- Includes live regional Citytv stations carrying Saturday night Hockey Night in Canada NHL games
- Huge entertainment upgrade following the addition of HGTV, Food Network, Discovery, and Bravo
- 7-day free trial available on standalone monthly ($9.99 CAD) and annual ($99.00 CAD) plans
- Smooth 1080p60 HD live streams across Apple TV, Roku, Fire TV, Google TV, and Samsung/LG TVs
What to Consider (Cons)
- Standalone $9.99 CAD/mo plan has very little live sport outside of Saturday NHL games on Citytv
- Bundle only pairs with Sportsnet+ Standard (cannot be bundled with the out-of-market Sportsnet+ Premium tier)
- Live channels and on-demand shows still include regular commercial ad breaks
- No 4K UHD streams on the app, and strictly geo-restricted to viewers in Canada
