Find pay per view (PPV) events with your X1 menu

This article provides instructions on how to find a PPV event using your Xfinity X1 on-scree guide.

PPV events are typically live events that air on a specific channel, date and time. You can find and order PPV events via the following:

Search

  1. If you know the name of your event, simply start typing the event's title on your remote.
  2. Use the numbers that correspond to the letters in the title of your event. For example, type: 993 for "WWE."
  3. Use the up arrow button or down arrow button to highlight the event you are looking for and press OK.
    Entering 993 on the remote when searching brings up the program matches to WWE.
