Disney+ Getting Another Price Hike

Disney is increasing the price of Disney+, with the cost of the subscription service set to increase starting on October 21, 2025. Bundles that include Disney+ will also be more expensive.

The Disney+ ad-supported plan is currently priced at $9.99 per month, but the price is going up to $11.99 per month. The ad-free Premium plan is $15.99 per month, but it will be increasing to $18.99 per month.

  • Disney+ With Ads - $11.99, up from $9.99
  • Disney+ Ad-Free - $18.99, up from $15.99
  • Disney+, Hulu Bundle (Ads) - $12.99, up from $10.99
  • Disney+, Hulu Bundle (No Ads) - $19.99 (No Change)
  • Disney+, ESPN, Hulu Bundle (Ads) - $19.99, up from $16.99
  • Disney+(No Ads), Hulu (No Ads), ESPN Select (Ads) - $29.99, up from $26.99
  • Disney+ (No Ads), Hulu (Ads), ESPN Select (Ads) - $24.99, up from $21.99
  • Disney+, Hulu, HBO Max Basic (Ads) - $19.99, up from $16.99
  • Disney+, Hulu, HBO Max Basic (No Ads) - $32.99, up from $29.99

Pricing on the Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN Unlimited bundles is not changing at this time, nor is pricing for the Disney+, Hulu, ESPN Unlimited, and NFL+ Premium plans.

Disney last increased the price of Disney+ in October 2024, so prices are going up again after just a year. Prior to October 2024, Disney+ ad-free was $13.99 per month and Disney+ with ads was $7.99 per month.

After Disney raised its prices in October 2024 and started cracking down on password sharing, it lost 700,000 subscribers. It is a curious time for Disney to implement a Disney+ price increase given the recent reaction to Disney's decision to pull Jimmy Kimmel's show off of the air.

Last week, Disney-owned network ABC said that Jimmy Kimmel Live would no longer be aired, leading to a social media campaign encouraging subscribers to cancel their Disney+ subscriptions. Disney reversed its decision following the backlash, but the price increase could prevent some subscribers from returning to the service.

Bad timing after the Kimmel controversy...whichever side you are on.

Would have been better business to let feelings settle down.
