Folks over in Europe are getting Disney+ earlier than planned! The platform will become available for several European countries starting with March 24th.
After going live for the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and The Netherlands over in November, the plan for the second extension was set for the end of March. Now, the company has announced that Disney+ is going to become available in Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the UK on March 24th. Plus, they've added three extra countries to the initial list - Ireland, Austria, and Switzerland.
The platform will be available for £5.99/€6.99 per month, or £59.99/€69.99 for the full year. It is unclear right now whether there would be some discounts or special deals available at launch for users here, as there were for US users.
Disney+ is also making sure potential subscribers in Belgium, Portugal, and the Nordic countries know that they're getting added as soon as summer 2020, although the exact date remains a secret.
