I asked sky/fan pass if they will show if on channel 1-4 so I could buy a fan pass, they sent my a replay a link to the website where you can choose a day, week or month. Doh! Any ideas?
They're showing all 51 games live plus replays so I imagine they will have some dedicated pop-up channels but also on the regular sports channels.
Some games will be free-to-air on Prime TV which is a first:

“As well as showing all 51 games live, we’ll have match day highlights, replays at convenient times and full coverage of the opening and closing ceremonies.”
"Prime will have live coverage of several UEFA EURO 2016 matches including the opening ceremony and opening match, the final and the closing and trophy ceremonies.
A full coverage schedule will be made available on www.sky.co.nz/sport closer to the tournament start date. Details of Prime’s UEFA EURO 2016 schedule will also be confirmed closer to the tournament."
You may find it more cost effective to do what I have done and subscribe to Sky through their marketing company where you can get a very good special offer of Sky Basic plus Sky Sport for only $39 / month plus a free My Sky box for recording stuff.
Minimum contract of only six months after which you are free to quit (but you can opt to keep the special offer for up to one year)
This offer is not available by contacting Sky TV but only their marketing company Icon at this number:
0800 475 988
I rang and had Sky installed within three days.
I'm very happy paying only $39 per month for all the basic Sky channels plus the sport channels.
After installation, you then deal exclusively with Sky TV, not the marketing company (say if you want to add any other channels etc. or have any problems).
If you take up this offer now, you will also get the coming European club finals, the FA Cup final, the four EPL club channels on Sky plus next season's A-League, All Whites matches etc. too
You can do what I do and quit Sky after your special offer finishes (I'm keeping it for a year): give Sky the required one month's notice of disconnection - and then wait two months without Sky so you're then eligible for any special promotions again. Phone Icon Marketing again and get the same offer!
