The Ballon d'Or 2020 ceremony was actually canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic and thus was not held or broadcasted on any platform. However, if looking for the 2020 award winner announcement, Robert Lewandowski was recognized for his outstanding 2020 performance.
For the current year, the Ballon d'Or 2025 ceremony took place recently on September 22, 2025, and was available for live streaming on various platforms depending on the region:
- In the UK, it was streamed for free on the official Ballon d'Or website and L'Equipe YouTube channel.
- In the US, it was broadcast by CBS and also available on Paramount+.
- In India, Sony Sports Network aired it and live streamed on the SonyLIV app and website.
- Other countries had local broadcasters such as beIN, Claro Sports, DAZN, and others listed for various regions.
If the interest is specifically for watching Ballon d'Or 2020 content or awards retrospectively, official highlights or compilations like on YouTube might be the best option, since there was no live ceremony for 2020 itself.
