Disney+ Plans and Prices (As of March 2025)

All Disney+ plans saw a price increase on October 17, 2024. The following details reflect these updated prices.

Disney+ Basic - $9.99/month

This is the most affordable Disney+ option, ideal for those who don't mind ads and don't need to download content for offline viewing. If you travel frequently or have kids and want to load up episodes of Bluey or Spidey and His Amazing Friends on a tablet for a vacation, consider upgrading to the premium plan.

It's worth noting that while Disney+ Basic offers over 300 titles in 4K UHD and HDR, it does not include Dolby Atmos, which is available with Disney+ Premium.

Disney+ Premium - $15.99/month or $159.99/year

A significant advantage of upgrading to Disney+ Premium is access to Dolby Atmos, a leading surround sound technology. Dolby Atmos provides spatial audio, allowing creators to place sounds in specific locations, fully immersing you in your favorite stories.

For more insights, check out our review of Disney+, where we noted, "For what is essentially a streaming service dedicated to the output and archives of a single company – albeit a company that now commands a vast swath of the entertainment landscape – Disney+ is doing a good job at widening its scope with documentaries, programming from its other banners, and, interestingly, concert films."
