When is Disney Plus coming to my country?

Best answer: Disney+ has launched in over a dozen countries in North America, Europe, and Asia as of June, and Disney+ is projected to launch in most markets over the next two years.International movie magic: Disney+ (opens in new tab) ($7/month at Disney+)

  • Austria

In addition, several French territories served by telecom Canal+ have Disney+ through that provider, including New Caledonia, French West Indies, French Guiana, Wallis and Futuna, with more territories later this year.

What about the rest of the world?

The next batch of countries slated to get Disney+ on Sept. 15, 2020 includes:

  • Belgium
  • Denmark
  • Finland
  • Iceland
  • Luxembourg
  • Norway
  • Portugal
  • Sweden

Brazil has a tentative November rollout but no exact date yet. As for the rest of the world, the tentative global rollout timeline Disney shared originally is as follows, though it is obviously subject to change.

  • Eastern Europe in the first half of 2021
  • Latin America in the first half of 2021
  • Asia and Pacific country launches throughout 2020 and 2021

The difference in media laws — and pre-existing content exclusivity agreements in many countries — also means that when Disney+ arrives in your country, it may not have all of the same content it does in the launch countries.

What if I can't wait that long?

Well, you really have two options. You can either move (which seems a bit crazy) or wait it out. Disney is moving to expand as quick as it can, but there is a lot of stuff that happens behind the scenes in order to make each new region get access.

Going global takes time, but we're off to a good start.

Disney brings all of its content under one roof for streaming after years of it being split on half a dozen services. It's not available everywhere yet, but we're up to a dozen countries right now.
