Hi, I just saw 73rd Miss Universe event on my Roku and I would like to ask a couple of questions:

First, although this event displays on my Roku, it is currently unavailable. Will it available in Roku Canada when the event starts this Saturday?

Second, In case it will be available in Canada, My question it will be available instantly when the event starts this Saturday? or I will be available before the event starts so I can watch it on waiting status?

Third, I can see two 73rd Miss Universe events(the picture below), what are the differences between them?

And finally, In case it will be available in Canada, What time will its official broadcast schedule take place?

While I do not know the specifics to your questions, in the past Roku has advertised for the Miss Universe on either the day of the broadcast or the day before on the Home Screen.  You then clicked on the advertisement and it would take you to the livestream channel. (they also showed replays on this channel for some time after the event as well).

The official website for Miss Universe is https://www.missuniverse.com/ (and currently has a countdown clock to the event) and Youtube also has an official page and has some pre-show things going on over there now as well.  https://www.youtube.com/@OfficialMissUniverse/videos
