The Cyber Monday streaming deals offer a way to sign up for Disney Plus, but with a catch in the form of Hulu attached too. However this deal is about to end so you'd better grab it fast.

This Black Friday Disney Plus deal is on in the US, but if you live in the UK, you're out of luck. Sorry! We'll update this article if that changes, but for reasons listed below it seems unlikely.

The Black Friday streaming deal I'm talking about is on the Disney Bundle, and it ends on Monday, December 2 at 11:59 pm PT. So you'll have to act fast to get this Disney Plus and Hulu combo.

As you probably know, Disney Plus is the streaming home for Disney (well, in most regions, though in the US that honor is split several ways). It has Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar, National Geographic, animated classics, plenty of Originals and a lot more.

So let's find you a way to save:

The only way to save on Disney Plus right now is by signing up for the Disney Bundle, which gets you ad-enabled Disney as well as Hulu. Given that Disney Plus usually costs $9.99 per month, you're still saving money if you sign up for this!

FOR ENTIRE YEAR
The Disney Bundle combines Hulu with Disney Plus, and you can get it for $8 off in this fantastic streaming bundle. Both streaming services will be on their ad-supported tiers, and it's the Duo Basic package, which doesn't include ESPN Plus.

FAQs on the Black Friday Disney Plus deal

When does this Black Friday Disney Bundle deal end?

To get the Disney Bundle Black Friday deal, you'll need to sign up before midnight on Monday, December 2.

To be precise it's 11:59 pm PT that Disney specifies the deal ends, but if you live in other time zones, I'd recommend signing up before 11:59 too just to be safe.

Can current Disney Plus subscribers sign up for the Disney Bundle deal?

Unfortunately, if you're currently a Disney Plus subscriber, you won't be eligible for this Black Friday deal. That's also the case if you're a Hulu subscriber.

You can only sign up if you've never been a Hulu or Disney Plus subscriber or if you haven't been one in the past month.

Will there be a Black Friday deal on Disney Plus subscriptions in the UK?

I don't imagine that there will be a UK-based Disney Plus Black Friday deal. The streamer only just finished offering a discount on its ad-supported tier, and it seems unlikely that it'll kick off another one so soon.

That's doubly true with its £4.99 ad-supported tier being fairly new, and the streamer probably wants people to sign up for this.

Will there be a Black Friday deal on Disney?

Whether or not Disney Plus itself gets a Black Friday deal, it's exceedingly likely that Disney itself will offer sales and discounts over the season on other products.

The Disney Store, and the company's Amazon store, have previously hosted sales so you can buy gifts or Christmas items for a reduced price. We'll launch some gift guides on those stores whenever the sales begin.

In addition other Disney streaming services, like Hulu and ESPN Plus, possibly will see Black Friday discounts based on precedent. So you'll still be able to save money and stream Disney videos.

When early Black Friday Disney deals begin, we'll highlight some that might pique your interest.

Other Black Friday deals to help you get Disney Plus

If the worst happens and Disney Plus doesn't get a Black Friday deal, that doesn't mean that you won't be able to get access to the streaming service through the sales. There are two key ways that this could happen:

Firstly, certain Hulu bundles let you get access to Disney Plus. The most likely will be Hulu with Live TV, Hulu's live TV streaming service, because subscribing to this also gives you access to Hulu's video-on-demand library, ESPN Plus and Disney Plus. Of course, this will cost you a lot more than simply signing up for Disney Plus, but you'll get access to cable channels too.

Another option is through mobile and cell deals, because many of these have Black Friday deals that consist of bundles. For example last year you could buy a Samsung phone and get a year of Disney Plus if you live in the US, and many UK mobile companies offer similar deals (with Apple TV Plus in particular a streaming service which gets offered a lot).

So another company might host a Black Friday deal which includes a Disney Plus subscription as part of its offering, though it won't just be on a subscription.

How much does Disney Plus cost?

When it's not on offer, how much do you need to pay to stream Disney Plus?

Disney Plus has two main plans: ad-enabled and ad-free. No prices for guessing what the difference is.

You can sign up for the ad-enabled plan for $9.99 / £4.99 per month or $99.99 per year (there's no option for this in the UK).

The ad-free plan costs $15.99 / £7.99 a month or $159.99 / £79.99 a year.

Is there a way to get free Disney Plus?

With the heyday of streaming trials over, you'd be forgiven for thinking that there's no way to get free Disney Plus.

There are ways, but they have limited audiences. A few different services and subscriptions offer free Disney Plus as a perk or bonus to something else. In the US and UK, many telecoms companies offer a limited Disney Plus subscription as an extra perk, and some supermarket subscriptions occasionally do too.
