Where to watch the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball concert for free

Every Christmas brings several traditions that almost everyone experiences: shopping for impossible-to-find presents, traveling to see relatives you barely know or tolerate, watching live sports while digesting unhealthy food, and watching A Christmas Story on a constant, eternal loop.

For some people, it’s watching a bunch of musicians gather to sing holiday tunes and some of their biggest pop hits. While the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball hasn’t been around long, it’s quickly becoming a holiday staple. The 2022 edition promises to be the best yet, with a slate of pop singers, boy bands from yesteryear, and established stars coming together for a concert at New York City’s Madison Square Garden. You don’t need a ticket to attend, as the event will be broadcasted and streamed this year. But where can you watch it?

After a riveting Sweet 16, only eight teams remain in the 2024 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship. The Elite Eight determines the winner of each region and, more importantly, punches a ticket to the Final Four next weekend in Phoenix. For some of these teams, making the Final Four would represent a landmark moment for their universities. 

Can anyone stop No. 1 UConn? The defending national champions looked unstoppable in their 82-52 Sweet 16 victory over No. 4 San Diego State. The Huskies have now won their last nine NCAA Tournament games by an average of 22.9 points per game. Another intriguing matchup pits No. 4 Alabama against No. 6 Clemson. These football schools are trying to prove that their basketball teams belong among the elite. The winner of the game will reach the Final Four for the first time in their program's history.

The best matchup on Thursday night features No. 1 North Carolina taking on No. 4 Alabama. It's a matchup of differing styles, with North Carolina living in the paint and Alabama setting up shop behind the arc. Friday night's best game is No. 1 Houston facing off against No. 4 Duke. The Cougars escaped the Round of 32 with a 100-95 overtime victory over No. 9 Texas A&M. Meanwhile, Duke didn't break a sweat in their 93-55 win over No. 12 James Madison.
