Excited to watch Rick and Morty season 9? Unfortunately, it’s only available on region-locked platforms, but we’ll show you exactly how to watch Rick and Morty season nine online, from anywhere, with a VPN.
Rick and Morty‘s ninth season will premiere at 23:00 ET (20:00 PT) on May 24. There’ll be 10 new episodes, with one released every Sunday until July 26. Sound good? Below, we’ll explain how to stream Rick and Morty season nine online, from anywhere in the world.
How to watch Rick and Morty season 9 online with a VPN
As you might expect, Rick and Morty season 9 will air on different networks in different countries. Don’t worry, though; the steps below reveal how to unblock Rick and Morty, even if you’re traveling abroad.
- Sign up with a VPN service. We recommend NordVPN but Surfshark and IPVanish are two great value alternatives.
- Download and install the VPN app (or browser extension) on your device.
- Open the VPN app and connect to a server in the appropriate location. For instance, use a server in the US to unblock Max or a British one to access Now TV abroad.
- Visit your chosen website, create an account (if required), and sign in.
- Finally, try playing an episode. It should now play without any issues. If the content is still blocked, try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies.
Don’t want to miss out on the premiere? You should test your VPN with your preferred streaming platform ahead of time. This way, if you run into problems, you’ll have enough time to troubleshoot it with your VPN’s customer support.

How to watch Rick and Morty season 9 on US TV
Rick and Morty will air on Adult Swim from May 24. If you have cable TV, you can just sign in and stream new episodes on-demand without paying anything extra. Alternatively, you can sign up for Sling TV, YouTube TV or Hulu with Live TV if you’d rather watch Adult Swim live (though these are fairly expensive services).
If you want to watch Rick and Morty season 9 without cable and don’t mind waiting a little longer, HBO Max is your best bet. This service costs $10.99 USD per month with ads and will add new episodes with a one-week delay (so the season nine premiere will be added on May 31).
All of the streaming services above are region-locked. Despite this, with a VPN, you can live stream Rick and Morty season nine online from anywhere. NordVPN comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. This means you can try it out risk-free and claim a full refund if you’re not satisfied.
Where else can I watch Rick and Morty season 9 online?
Rick and Morty has a cult following across the world, so it’s only natural that it’d be available for streaming overseas. Below, we explain which networks are showing Rick and Morty season 9 where you are:
UK
Rick and Morty won’t be on Channel 4 anymore, having jumped to the recently-launched streaming service HBO Max (£4.99 GBP monthly). Sadly, this does mean that it won’t be possible to watch Rick and Morty season nine for free in the UK.
On the plus side, HBO Max content is included with a Now TV Entertainment membership so if you’re already a Now TV customer, you won’t have to pay anything extra. New episodes will be added the day after they air in the US, with the premiere dropping on May 25. Plus, Netflix UK has all eight previous seasons in case you’re looking to catch up.
If you’re traveling abroad, you can access Now TV or HBO Max’s British catalog by obtaining a UK IP address via a VPN.
Australia
If you’re in Australia, things are nice and easy: Rick and Morty season nine will be available on HBO Max Australia service, just like last time around. This service costs $11.99 AUD per month and will add the premiere on May 25. Plus, Max also offers the full back catalog of old episodes in case you’re not quite up-to-date.
Keep in mind that HBO Max is region-locked, and Rick and Morty isn’t available everywhere. To watch it from outside of Australia, you’ll need a VPN.

What can we expect from Rick and Morty season nine?
While plot details are being kept tightly under wraps, the official trailer for Rick and Morty season nine gives us an idea of what to expect: chaos. The trailer shows Summer and Diane fighting a couch monster, satellites exploding in space, and Rick and Morty taking on the toughest foe of all: a dance class. It seems safe to say that this show is still going strong (and with another three seasons already greenlit, hopefully things stay that way).
Watching Rick and Morty online FAQs
Can I use a free VPN to watch Rick and Morty abroad?
No. Although there are some free VPNs available on the market, they are not suitable for streaming online. Free VPNs are oversubscribed, and they have very few servers. This causes the VPN to be highly congested, which results in bad speeds. This sluggishness is exacerbated if the free VPN provider implements bandwidth throttling.
In addition to being slow, free VPNs do not have servers that work to access streaming services. This is because it is easy for streaming platforms to block IP address ranges associated with free VPNs. As a result, you will need a secure premium VPN to watch Rick and Morty.
Finally, we advise against using free VPNs for privacy and security reasons. Free VPN providers need to make a profit, and they do so by turning your data and browsing habits into a revenue stream. As a result, free VPNs have extremely invasive privacy policies that allow them to sell your data to marketing companies and data aggregators.
Furthermore, free VPNs have been found to lie about the level of protection they provide, sometimes claiming to have encryption when they have none. Add to this app vulnerabilities, data leaks, and even spyware-filled apps, and you can see why free VPNs are a danger to your online health.
