Australians can watch the event live online through various streaming options.
This guide will walk you through all the best possible ways to watch the BAFTA Awards in Australia, including a free streaming option.
Where Can I Watch BAFTA Awards Online in Australia?
Australians can stream the BAFTA Awards 2025 live on Britbox Australia. Britbox offers two subscription plans:
- $9.99/month

Britbox also comes with a 7-day free trial, making it a great option for new users.
If you’re traveling outside Australia but already have a Britbox subscription, you can still watch the BAFTA Awards using a VPN.

If you don’t have Britbox or prefer a free option, you can stream the awards on BBC iPlayer (BBC One).
However, BBC iPlayer is only available in the UK due to licensing restrictions. To access it from Australia, you’ll need a VPN.
Steps to Watch BAFTA Awards on BBC iPlayer with a VPN:
