Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The upcoming months will provide no shortage of action across the world of sport, with a host of major international tournaments taking place in 2024 - such as the Paris Olympics, European Championship and the T20 Cricket World Cup - as well as the usual annual schedules of major disciplines and one-off events.

Below is our sporting calendar for the year, comprising everything from football, rugby and Formula One to the biggest dates to watch out for across athletics, golf, horse racing and plenty more besides. Will you seek out Euro 2024 or the Copa America? A cricket World Cup final or the Tour de France? Fans will be spoilt for choice over the next 12 months.

This calendar will be updated throughout the sporting year as dates or locations are confirmed, with some events such as the Women’s T20 World Cup not yet fixed in place.
