How to watch Gold Rush season 12 online where you are

Season 12 of Gold Rush premieres on the Discovery Channel on Friday, September 24 at 8pm ET / PT. Simply tune in to the channel to watch a new episode of the reality TV show each week at the same time.

If you don’t have cable, the Discovery Channel has its very own streaming service, Discovery Plus, where episodes of Gold Rush will be available to watch online. You’ll need to sign up for a $4.99 a month subscription or go ad free for $6.99 a month but use the 7-day FREE trial first to see if the eservice is for you.

Or if you prefer to use an OTT streaming service there are lots of options. Get Sling TV for $10 for your first month and watch Discovery live through its Sling Blue package. Alternatively, make the most of the 7-day FuboTV free trial with their Starter package.

Discovery Plus is coming to Canada at some point this year - we just don't know when yet. So for the time being Canadian viewers can watch Gold Rush season 12 on CTV.

Canadian mining fans will have to wait a little bit longer for the newest season of Gold Rush, which doesn't air on CTV until October 5 at 9pm ET / PT. 

If you prefer to watch online, head to the CTV website, sign in with your TV provider details and stream Gold Rush that way. Or go to the CTV Go app to watch the new season on-demand.

Anyone from across the pond can watch Gold Rush season 12 on Discovery. However, you will have to wait until a few days after the US, with the reality show airing on Tuesday, September 28 at 9pm BST.

Those with Sky, BT or Virgin Media TV packages have access to Discovery. For everyone else, the Discovery Plus streaming service will let you watch Gold Rush online.

You'll need to sign up for a £4.99 a month entertainment subscription to watch Gold Rush, but make use of the 7-day free trial to check it's right for you first.

Any Amazon Prime Video customers out there can add the Discovery Plus app to their account and keep all their favorite shows in one place.

Treating yourself to a holiday or away for business when Gold Rush season 12 airs? Remember to use a VPN to access your usual streaming service and watch your favorite shows as if you were at home. 

Unfortunately, it looks like Aussie gold mining fans are going to have to wait for the latest season of Gold Rush because there's no word of a release date for the reality show down under yet.

However, if you still need your fix of drama from the gold mines, there are a few options. Foxtel Now has the last four seasons of Gold Rush available to stream online. Binge also has season 10 ready to watch, so there's plenty to keep you entertained whilst you wait.

You can sign up for a 14 day free trial to both streaming services before committing to the $10 a month subscription for Binge or $25 a month Foxtel Now subscription.
