Roku continues to expand its free programming options through The Roku Channel, the company's ad-supported streaming service.
Available in the United States, Canada, Mexico and the United Kingdom, The Roku Channel offers hundreds of channels to users, all free of charge. According to a new report from Cord Cutters News, Roku has added six more channels to its list.
Roku has expanded consistently every month of 2026. In its latest round of channel expansion, the company added the following:
The six new offerings include news, sports, entertainment, Spanish-speaking and lifestyle content, among other things.
"This latest round of additions underscores the platform’s commitment to variety. Sports and wrestling fans gain dedicated access through the CW and WWE-related feed, independent cinema enthusiasts find options on cindietv, news-oriented viewers can turn to real American voice programming, Spanish-language audiences benefit from lATiunus, comedy and digital-native content arrives via Danny Duncan TV, and music or performance seekers have AMP," writes Cord Cutters News' Luke Bouma. "Together, the channels enhance the live TV experience on Roku hardware and reinforce The Roku Channel’s role as a comprehensive free alternative in the streaming landscape."
So far, Roku has added 10 free channels this month. In the first week of August, the platform began offering Fairground AI, MAD TV, Retro Black Laughs and Whose Line Is It Anyway through The Roku Channel.
Overall, the company has added close to 100 new free channels this year, including 22 in April alone and more than a dozen in other months.
“Keep an eye on Roku and The Roku Channel,” Bouma said earlier this year. “They are, according to Nielsen, now the largest, most-watched free, ad-supported streaming service, with Tubi and Pluto TV coming in second and third. Keep an eye on the growth there.”
