The Olympics are here, which means that it's time for another summer of the world's best gymnastics. We've scoured the TV guides to highlight everything you need to know about where to watch Olympic gymnastics, including when you can expect to see Simone Biles compete.
Olympic gymnastics are divided into three official categories: artistic, rhythmic, and trampoline. The events are carried out at different times throughout the tournament, beginning with the qualification subdivisions and working up to the finals. Trampoline gymnastics takes place on August 2, and Rhythmic gymnastics runs from August 8 to 10.
Artistic gymnastics kicked off this weekend, and the men's and women's team medal events were awarded earlier this week. On the men's side, Japan won gold and China won silver. Notably, the US men's team earned its first medal (bronze) since 2008, thanks in no small part to Stephen Nedoroscik's work on the pommel horse. The US women's team also had its comeback moment, with Simone Biles, Suni Lee, and others winning gold. Italy won silver and Brazil won bronze.
Next up is the all-around, which will see Biles and Lee compete once again. No matter where you are, we'll show you how to tune into Olympic gymnastics this year. For a full breakdown of the Olympics and specific events, you can check out our streaming guide on how to watch the Olympics.

Where to watch Olympic gymnastics in the US
The best way to see absolutely all parts of the Olympic gymnastic events in the United States is through Peacock. The streaming service, which costs $7.99 monthly, covers every event at this year's Olympics.
Olympic gymnastics will also be available through NBC and USA in the US, although this coverage will be slightly more selective. If you're a cord-cutter, you can still access these channels through a live TV streaming cable alternative like Sling TV or Fubo.
Sling TV will be the cheapest option, at $40 a month. Plus, new customers can usually get a slight discount on their first month. The Sling Blue plan carries NBC and USA, but local channels (like NBC) are only available in select regions, so you should look up your zip code before subscribing to make sure you can actually get the channels you want.
Fubo has extensive NBC and USA coverage around the country. At $79.99 a month, it's the more expensive option, but it comes with more than 180 channels. New users can try Fubo free for one week.

How to watch Olympics gymnastics from anywhere
Fans who will be away at any point during the Olympics can still keep up with the above free streaming options using a VPN. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs are useful devices for many reasons. Chief among the perks is that they allow individuals to temporarily alter the virtual location on their devices so that they can use all of their usual websites, no matter where they are in the world. They're often used by folks hoping to boost their privacy on the internet and keep up with their streaming apps while traveling.
ExpressVPN, an easy-to-use option, is our go-to VPN recommendation. Plus, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee if you find that it's not what you're looking for. Our ExpressVPN review has full details, and you can see highlights of the service below.
Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
