CYCLONES, FOX19 NOW, ROCK ENTERTAINMENT SPORTS NETWORK ANNOUNCE NEW TV DEAL, ALL HOME GAMES TO BE BROADCAST LOCALLY IN 2026-27
CINCINNATI, Ohio - The Cincinnati Cyclones today announced, in conjunction with FOX19 NOW and Rock Entertainment Sports Network, that all home games during the 2026-27 season will be broadcast locally on 19.3 Rock Entertainment Sports Network.
All 36 home games will be accessible to Cyclones fans for free on over-the-air access on 19.3, or with Spectrum in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky on channel 999 or channel 253 through Altafiber. Coverage will begin when the Cyclones open their 2026-27 home schedule against the Bloomington Bison on Oct. 24, 2026 at Heritage Bank Center.
“We couldn’t be more thrilled to expand on our partnership with FOX19 NOW,” said Cyclones Vice President and General Manager Kristin Ropp. “We pride ourselves on making the game as accessible as possible for our incredible fans. We feel that making our broadcasts free and available to anyone in the area was a crucial step to continue the popularity of hockey in the Tri-State and we’re thankful that FOX19 NOW shares that same belief.”
In addition to all 36 home games being broadcast locally, the Cincinnati Cyclones will produce an original TV show titled “Cyclones HQ” that will air on the free FOX19 NOW+ app and website every two weeks. Hosted by Cyclones play-by-play broadcaster Rudy Hodgson, “Cyclones HQ” will highlight the team’s performance, community outreach, and showcase a behind-the-scenes look at the organization.
