Bongo officially launched its coverage of the 2026/27 English Premier League season with a grand press event at Radisson Blu Dhaka Water Garden on Saturday, unveiling its plans to bring all 380 matches to Bangladeshi audiences in partnership with Myco.

The collaboration aims to make premium international sports content more accessible while creating a more engaging experience for Premier League fans in Bangladesh.

Bongo said it will offer all 380 matches in Full HD with a “bufferless” live streaming experience, seeking to ensure smooth and uninterrupted access throughout the season.

Mamun Atik, Chief of Business and Corporate Affairs at Bongo, said: “The Premier League is one of the world's most powerful sports properties, and bringing all 380 matches to Bangladeshi audiences represents a significant opportunity for the local digital entertainment ecosystem.

“Our partnership with Myco is built around creating value for fans while opening up new opportunities for brands, partners and the wider sports community. We look forward to building on this throughout the season.”

Alongside the season launch, Bongo also introduced its Fantasy Premier League (FPL) campaign for Bangladesh's large FPL community. Exclusively available to Bongo EPL Season Pass subscribers, the campaign offers top fantasy managers prizes including a PlayStation 5, MacBook and iPhone, as well as monthly surprise gifts.

Nabila Sajjad, COO of Bongo, said the Premier League holds a special place in the hearts of millions of Bangladeshi fans.

“Bongo, in partnership with Myco, is bringing every match of the 2026/27 season directly to our audiences via direct streaming on Bongo,” she said.

“Season Pass holders can also take part in our Fantasy Premier League campaign, which has great prizes for winners, and they can come to watch parties for the season's biggest matches. All of these are great ways to really immerse themselves in the world that is EPL.”

The launch was followed by an exclusive watch party for Bongo EPL Season Pass holders, journalists and invited guests, who gathered to watch Manchester United's clash with Hull City live on the big screen.

The event created a lively atmosphere among the supporters, although the stream experienced some buffering during the match, despite Bongo's earlier promise of a bufferless viewing experience.

United eventually endured a disappointing evening, losing 2-0 to Hull City.
