In the heart of Denver, a sports revolution is brewing. The Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche are stepping into a new era of broadcasting. The winds of change are blowing, and fans are ready to embrace it.
The Nuggets and Avalanche have been riding high on the success of their recent championships. The Nuggets claimed their first NBA title in 2023, while the Avalanche lifted the Stanley Cup in 2022. Both teams are now household names, but for too long, local fans have been left in the dark. The contractual disputes between Kroenke Sports & Entertainment (KSE) and Comcast left many unable to watch their teams. The thrill of victory was just out of reach.
Now, a new streaming service, Altitude+, is set to change the game. This platform will provide access to all Nuggets and Avalanche games not aired on national networks. For just $19.95 a month, fans can subscribe and watch their teams play. This is a lifeline for those who felt abandoned by traditional cable providers.
The excitement is palpable. Fans can finally witness the magic of Nikola Jokic and Nathan MacKinnon without barriers. The Altitude+ app will be available on Apple and Android devices, with a smart TV version coming soon. This is a step into the future, where convenience meets passion.
But what about the offseason? The question lingers. Will fans maintain their subscriptions when the games fade away? KSE acknowledges the challenge. The goal is to create compelling content that keeps fans engaged year-round. It’s a tough sell, but the hope is that the allure of exclusive content will keep subscriptions alive.
For those who can’t afford the subscription, KSE has a plan. Local broadcasts on KUSA-9 and KTVD-20 will air a selection of games for free. This ensures that even the most budget-conscious fans can catch the action. Twenty games for each team will be available, ensuring that no one is left behind.
The stakes are high. The Nuggets and Avalanche are not just teams; they are symbols of pride for Denver. The community has rallied behind them, and now they can finally watch their heroes in action. The importance of accessibility cannot be overstated. Fans have expressed their frustration over the past few years, and KSE is listening.
Kevin Demoff, KSE’s president of team and media operations, emphasizes the need for a seamless viewing experience. Whether fans tune in via Altitude+, KUSA-9, or KTVD-20, the goal is consistency. The same voices, the same energy, the same excitement. This is about creating a unified experience for fans, no matter how they choose to watch.
The backdrop of this broadcasting shift is a tumultuous landscape for regional sports networks. The rise of streaming has disrupted traditional models. KSE is not alone in this struggle; many franchises are navigating similar waters. The dual approach of combining over-the-air broadcasts with a streaming service is becoming a blueprint for success.
The Nuggets and Avalanche are not just competing on the court and ice; they are also battling for the hearts of fans. The stakes are higher than ever. The recent successes of both teams have brought them into the national spotlight. The MVP awards for Jokic and MacKinnon are testaments to their talent. Yet, the struggle to watch them play has been a bitter pill for local fans.
The previous disputes with Comcast have been a saga of frustration. The lawsuit filed by Altitude in 2019 highlighted the challenges of securing broadcasting rights. After years of negotiations, the resolution brought hope, but the path forward was still unclear. The impasse left many fans feeling disconnected from their teams.
Now, with Altitude+, the future looks brighter. The service aims to bridge the gap between fans and their teams. It’s a chance to rekindle the connection that was lost. The thrill of watching a game live, the camaraderie of cheering with friends, and the joy of witnessing history unfold—these are the moments that matter.
As the seasons approach, anticipation builds. The Nuggets will tip off their season against Oklahoma City on October 24, while the Avalanche will begin their campaign on October 9 in Las Vegas. The excitement is electric. Fans are ready to rally behind their teams once again.
In this new era of sports broadcasting, the focus is on the fans. KSE is making strides to ensure that everyone can be part of the action. The promise of Altitude+ is not just about streaming games; it’s about creating a community. It’s about bringing people together, celebrating victories, and sharing the love of the game.
As the Nuggets and Avalanche gear up for their seasons, one thing is clear: the future is bright. The streaming service is a beacon of hope for fans who have longed to watch their teams play. The connection is being restored, and the excitement is palpable. Denver is ready to cheer, and the world will be watching.
