2021 Olympic Games

How to watch Biles, Chiles, and all the Tokyo Olympic Gymnastics action at home in Dallas

Gymnastics fans can Yurchenko double pike for joy: The Tokyo Olympic Games finally have landed.

The first Artistic Gymnastics event — Men's Qualifying — begins mere hours after Opening Ceremony on Friday, July 23. Then the women — starring G.O.A.T. Simone Biles, her Texas training mate Jordan Chiles, and the rest of top-ranked Team USA who stole North Texas hearts at the National Championships last month — start their quest for gold.

Thanks to modern technology, watching each and every Olympic Gymnastics event from Tokyo is both easy (so many options!) and complicated (that 14-hour time difference!) — but entirely possible.

Whether you're a digital streamer or a traditional TV watcher, know this first: NBC owns coverage. NBC and its affiliate channels and sites, such as NBCSN and Peacock, alone are broadcasting the Games.

You can stream competitions live and watch replays via Peacock, NBCOlympics.com, and NBC Sports on the web or by downloading the apps to your SmartTV or digital device. (Most Tokyo Olympics programming will be free.)
You can also tune in to Olympic channels on Sling TV, YouTube TV, and access coverage with a Hulu + Live TV subscription.
Locally, all Gymnastics TV coverage will air on NBC 5.

Below is the daily schedule of Men’s and Women’s Artistic Gymnastics events, when to stream them live, and when to watch later as part of NBC's TV broadcast. All times are CDT.

Meet y'all on Y'all Plaza.

In time for patio weather, the Marriott Dallas Uptown hotel has unveiled a new outdoor space with a flexible design and a folksy name: Called Y’all Plaza, it's a 4,000-square-foot outdoor gathering place in Uptown Dallas, near the Katy Trail.

According to a release, the plaza is designed to be an alternative to traditional indoor meeting rooms, with an open-air layout intended to accommodate a variety of uses including networking events, wellness programming, and community gatherings. Hotel personnel say they're aiming to encourage movement and interaction in a more casual environment.

But it's not just for hotel guests.

“At our core, we are in the business of creating memorable experiences, and Y’all Plaza is an extension of that commitment,” says Robbie Tawil, general manager of Marriott Dallas Uptown, in the release. “We are proud to open this space to our guests and the community after years of thoughtful planning. We envision it as a vibrant setting for events, connection, and celebration, and we’re excited to see how people make it their own.”

The space is also pet-friendly, and within dog-walking distance of the popular Katy Trail.

“Y’all Plaza was designed with flexibility in mind, allowing us to host everything from corporate meetings and client receptions to weddings and wellness programming,” says Hannah Finger, director of sales at Marriott Dallas Uptown. “It gives groups a unique alternative to traditional event spaces, with the ability to create more engaging, customized experiences for their guests.”

Developers say the plaza will function as a community-oriented space within a dense, walkable district.

“Our intent is to create a vibrant outdoor community gathering space in what has become the core of Uptown," says Matt Segrest, president of Alamo Manhattan. "We hope that our hotel guests relish this unique amenity and that our neighbors embrace the plaza as their own. Great neighborhoods have great public spaces and we hope this is a worthy contribution.”

The plaza will offer regular programming and is available for public bookings. For more information, upcoming programming, or booking inquiries, visit the website or email dalmu.sales@marriott.com.
