Disney+ Free Trial Availability in 2025

For over a century, Disney has been at the forefront of animated entertainment, delivering timeless classics that captivate generations. Since November 2019, these beloved films and projects, now under Disney's umbrella, are available for streaming on any device through a Disney+ subscription.

Most streaming platforms offer a trial period, but **Disney+ does not currently provide a free trial for new subscribers**. Disney was among the first to eliminate this option, discontinuing it in 2020. The Disney+ help center clearly states that no free trials are available.

Although Disney+ itself doesn't offer a free trial, Verizon customers with Unlimited Plus or Unlimited Ultimate service can enjoy a free Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ bundle for six months as part of their myPlan perk. After the initial six months, a monthly fee of $10 is required to continue the service. This is an excellent option for Verizon subscribers looking to leverage their existing services for a comprehensive streaming package.

Another workaround for the absence of a Disney+ free trial is to sign up for a free trial of Hulu + Live TV, which includes Disney+ access. This trial lasts only three days, making it a quick way to test the service, perhaps over a weekend.
