Nationally televised games move to NBC and Peacock, ABC and ESPN, or Prime Video instead. Opening night on October 20, 2026 was on NBC and Peacock, and the Christmas Day game against the Spurs is on ABC and ESPN at 12:00 PM ET.<\/p>\n<h3>How can I stream Knicks games in 2026-27?<\/h3>\n<p>You can stream most Knicks games in 2026-27 on DAZN, which MSG Networks named its exclusive streaming home this season. People who already get MSG through a pay-TV provider can use DAZN at no extra cost. National games stream on Peacock, the ESPN app or Prime Video, depending on which network has the game.<\/p>\n<h3>When did the Knicks play their first game of the 2026-27 season?<\/h3>\n<p>The Knicks played their first game of the 2026-27 season on Tuesday, October 20, 2026, at home against the Philadelphia 76ers on banner night for the defending champions. The 76ers won 106-100 at Madison Square Garden, on NBC and Peacock, per the NBA&#8217;s schedule data.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I watch Knicks games on NBA League Pass in New York?<\/h3>\n<p>No, NBA League Pass is not a way to watch the Knicks in New York. League Pass blacks out local games and nationally televised games, so a Knicks game shown on MSG Network, NBC, ABC, ESPN or Prime Video is not available on it in the New York area. Use MSG Network, DAZN or the national channel instead.<\/p>\n<h3>Where can I watch the Knicks in the West Village?<\/h3>\n<p>You can watch the Knicks in the West Village at neighborhood sports bars that carry MSG Network and the national channels, including The Beer Garage at 118 Christopher Street. No West Village bar we checked calls itself a Knicks bar. Call ahead for 9:30 PM ET tip-offs, and for a Knicks-only crowd, try the bars near Madison Square Garden.<\/p>\n<h3>Is there a sports bar with gluten-free food in the West Village?<\/h3>\n<p>Not at The Beer Garage: its West Village kitchen at 118 Christopher Street is a standard kitchen, and none of the dishes on its menu carries a gluten-free label. The Beer Garage Park Slope, at 148 5th Avenue in Brooklyn, runs a 100 per cent gluten-free kitchen. Anyone with celiac disease should still ask staff about their own needs before ordering.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<h2 id=\"verdict\">Final verdict<\/h2>\n<p>If you have tickets, eat near the Garden or ride the 1 train up from Christopher Street. If you are watching on TV, you do not need to go to Midtown to watch the Knicks in the West Village; a neighborhood bar with MSG Network and the national channels does the job. We would be glad to see you at 118 Christopher Street. Just call first for a late tip-off.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"sources\">Sources<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"tbg-sources\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/pr.nba.com\/2026-27-nba-regular-season-schedule\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NBA Communications: 2026-27 regular season schedule<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/news\/key-dates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NBA.com: key dates for the 2026-27 season<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/news\/every-nba-game-on-abc-espn-in-2026-27\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NBA.com: every NBA game on ABC and ESPN in 2026-27<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/news\/nba-on-christmas-day-schedule-2026-27\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NBA.com: Christmas Day 2026 schedule<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/news\/how-to-watch-games-2026-27-season\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NBA.com: how to watch games in 2026-27<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.msgnetworks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MSG Networks: DAZN streaming press release, July 29, 2026<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mta.info\/maps\/subway-line-maps\/1-line\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MTA: 1 line map<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mustangharrys.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Mustang Harry&#8217;s<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.avenida-nyc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Avenida<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roccossportsandrec.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Rocco&#8217;s Sports &amp; Rec<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/westtrionasnyc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Triona&#8217;s<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/WV-The-Beer-Garage-Menu_v3.pdf\">The Beer Garage West Village menu (PDF)<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"tbg-authorcard\">\n<img class=\"tbg-avatar tbg-avatar-lg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/marina-charny-owner-the-beer-garage.webp\" alt=\"Marina Charny, owner of The Beer Garage\" width=\"96\" height=\"96\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"object-fit:cover;padding:0\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<p><strong>Marina Charny<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"tbg-meta\">Owner, The Beer Garage (Park Slope and West Village)<\/p>\n<p>Marina Charny owns The Beer Garage, which began in a converted garage in Park Slope and later opened a second bar in the West Village.

Nationally televised games move to NBC and Peacock, ABC and ESPN, or Prime Video instead. Opening night on October 20, 2026 was on NBC and Peacock, and the Christmas Day game against the Spurs is on ABC and ESPN at 12:00 PM ET.\"}},\n{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How can I stream Knicks games in 2026-27?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"You can stream most Knicks games in 2026-27 on DAZN, which MSG Networks named its exclusive streaming home this season. People who already get MSG through a pay-TV provider can use DAZN at no extra cost. National games stream on Peacock, the ESPN app or Prime Video, depending on which network has the game.\"}},\n{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"When did the Knicks play their first game of the 2026-27 season?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The Knicks played their first game of the 2026-27 season on Tuesday, October 20, 2026, at home against the Philadelphia 76ers on banner night for the defending champions. The 76ers won 106-100 at Madison Square Garden, on NBC and Peacock, per the NBA's schedule data.\"}},\n{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Can I watch Knicks games on NBA League Pass in New York?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"No, NBA League Pass is not a way to watch the Knicks in New York. League Pass blacks out local games and nationally televised games, so a Knicks game shown on MSG Network, NBC, ABC, ESPN or Prime Video is not available on it in the New York area. Use MSG Network, DAZN or the national channel instead.\"}},\n{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Where can I watch the Knicks in the West Village?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"You can watch the Knicks in the West Village at neighborhood sports bars that carry MSG Network and the national channels, including The Beer Garage at 118 Christopher Street. No West Village bar we checked calls itself a Knicks bar. Call ahead for 9:30 PM ET tip-offs, and for a Knicks-only crowd, try the bars near Madison Square Garden.\"}},\n{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is there a sports bar with gluten-free food in the West Village?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Not at The Beer Garage: its West Village kitchen at 118 Christopher Street is a standard kitchen, and none of the dishes on its menu carries a gluten-free label. The Beer Garage Park Slope, at 148 5th Avenue in Brooklyn, runs a 100 per cent gluten-free kitchen. Anyone with celiac disease should still ask staff about their own needs before ordering.\"}}\n]}\n]\n}\n<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Where to watch the defending champion Knicks in the West Village in 2026-27: which channel carries each game, the big national TV dates, how our bar&#8217;s hours line up with late tip-offs, and the five-stop 1 train ride from Christopher Street to Madison Square Garden.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":363,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[49,31,50,19,48,36,14],"class_list":["post-595","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-west-village","tag-basketball","tag-game-day","tag-knicks","tag-manhattan","tag-nba","tag-new-york","tag-sports-bar"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=595"}],"version-history":[{"count":18,"href":"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1418,"href":"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595\/revisions\/1418"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/363"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=595"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=595"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=595"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
