It is now easier to find free entertainment on Roku. Roku quietly updated its Live TV guide and added six new Roku free channels at the start of July 2026.
With this update, there is something new to watch. If you have a Roku TV or streaming device, these channels are already on your home screen and ready to stream for free.
Roku’s quiet rollout is part of a larger plan to attract viewers who want to save money and are frustrated by rising prices on apps like Netflix or Disney+. Rather than making people pay for bundles, Roku offers free, ad-supported TV (called FAST) to keep users satisfied.
What are the new Roku free channels?
Here is a breakdown of what you can expect to find on each of the six newly added live channels.
1. World of Love Island (Channel 733)
Fans of the global dating show can watch anytime on this 24/7 channel. You do not have to wait for weekly episodes on paid apps. Just tune in for full past episodes, dramatic recouplings, and post-elimination recaps.
2. iShowSpeed TV (Channel 833)
If you have teens or younger viewers at home, they probably know Darren “iShowSpeed” Watkins Jr. This channel turns his popular YouTube and Twitch livestreams into a TV format, showing his top gaming moments, viral stunts, and travel vlogs on the big screen.
3. The Kalogeras Sisters (Channel 838)
This channel follows three popular Canadian-Greek sisters in a reality sitcom style. You will see their daily lives, cooking experiments, travel diaries, internet challenges, and plenty of family chaos.
4. FREE TV (Channel 1023)
This is Roku’s newest channel for fans of traditional TV. It plays classic Hollywood movies, vintage sitcoms, and old TV dramas. If you want to watch familiar, nostalgic shows without searching through menus, this channel is for you.
5. Mayday Cesar Art Tro a Leree (Channel 1024)
This channel stands out for its focus on visual art. Rather than dramatic stories, it features art showcases, painting, and independent art programs. It is a modern take on the classic Bob Ross style of TV.
6. Watch Wed Wrestling (Channel 5246)
This channel is made for combat sports fans who want more than just WWE. It offers match highlights, fan analysis, independent wrestling promotions, and talk shows that cover storylines, techniques, and upcoming events.
How to access the six new free Roku channels
With this update, Roku has added over 80 free channels this year. The platform now offers more than 500 free live channels and thousands of on-demand movies.
To watch these channels, you do not need to download anything new. Just select the “Live TV” tab on your Roku home screen.
To save time, use the search bar on the left side of the guide. Type in the channel name and add it to your “Favorites” list so it’s easy to find next time.
