Rogers is raising subscription prices across all Sportsnet+ streaming tiers starting in September 2026.
Customers began receiving notifications on Thursday informing them that monthly and annual rates for both the Standard and Premium plans will increase starting with their first billing cycle on or after September 22, 2026. This price increase comes conveniently timed, as it’s just one week before the start of the 2026-27 NHL regular season. The telecom giant cited ongoing investments in live sports and premium content as the reason behind the price adjustments.
The base Sportsnet+ Standard tier will see its monthly price jump from $29.99 to $34.99 per month plus applicable taxes. The plan includes local market broadcasts for the Toronto Maple Leafs, Edmonton Oilers, Calgary Flames, and Vancouver Canucks, alongside national NHL broadcast nights and every game of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. It also features over 150 Toronto Blue Jays games, the MLB postseason, 41 Toronto Raptors games, select NBA playoff matchups, combat sports, and TNA Wrestling programming.
For users on an annual plan, the Sportsnet+ Standard yearly plan is moving from $249.99 to $269.99 per year.
Subscribers to the higher-tier Sportsnet+ Premium plan will also see an increase. The monthly rate is rising from $42.99 to $44.99, while the annual pass is increasing from $324.99 to $344.99 per year. The Premium tier includes everything in the Standard package while adding over 1,100 out-of-market NHL games, US vs. US team matchups, and additional international events under the SN World banner, such as FA Cup football and rugby.
The Sportsnet+ Standard plus Citytv+ bundle will be increasing in price too, from $31.99 to $36.99 per month.
Last year around this time, Sportsnet+ prices also saw a price increase, at the tune of 30%, which made fans pretty angry. Rogers recently finalized a deal to take full control of MLSE (which includes the Maple Leafs) and these little price increases look to help fund the $4.35 billion deal it seems.
