Where can I find a schedule of the Olympics WITHOUT SPOILERS

July 31, 2024 1:36 AM

I want to know which finals are happening which days without learning any results of what has already happened. I subscribed to Peacock to get the full coverage of all the events, but I can't find this seemingly obvious thing on the site, and sometimes their highlight images or headlines give away the ending. Googling of course leads to massive spoilers. I want a list of which finals are happening when so I can plan what to watch each evening and navigate to that replay as quickly as possible while trying not to see anything else. Can you help?

The Olympics app lets you see a schedule and filter by medal events. Then navigate the peacock app to “all sports” and pick the replay you want. If you don’t scroll down to highlights you shouldn’t see any spoilers. At least that’s who it’s worked for us, although we just go to the sport page without knowing the schedule usually - the upcoming events gives times and medal info too.

The Peacock Olympic schedule has all of their coverage listed out by event, does not have spoilers, and there is a little medal icon 🥇 next to the sport name if it’s medal event. Use the days at the top to go backwards/forwards as needed.

Also, to navigate there in the app, go to the dedicated Olympics page, then down a few sections (right now for me it is like the fourth thing down the page after the “Live & Upcoming” section) and there should be an “Olympics Schedule” button.

Are you doing the peacock app on your phone or TV? The app on phone looks alot less spoilery than the TV one. Because I definitely was spoiled using the peacock TV app but the provided screenshot looks different and more compact.

If you go to the schedule hankscorpio83 linked (on a computer it works very nicely with no spoilers) and add the replays you're interested in to "my stuff", that will make it faster to get to them to watch later on your tv.

On a very non-technical end, I saw this a few weeks ago and sent it to my mom for her planning purposes: Event Schedule Guide (Reddit)

The Olympic site's grid view doesn't list results, and if you click through to a future date, you will only see the schedule for that date, so you won't see previous days' results.
