Disney+ Free Trial Availability in 2025

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

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

Although Disney+ doesn't offer a direct free trial, there are alternative ways to access the service without immediate cost. Verizon customers with Unlimited Plus or Unlimited Ultimate service can enjoy a free Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ bundle for six months as a myPlan perk. After the initial six months, subscribers will need to pay $10 monthly to continue the service. This is an excellent option for Verizon users looking to maximize their existing services, offering a variety of streaming options similar to what Hulu provides.

Another workaround is to sign up for a free trial of Hulu + Live TV, which includes access to Disney+. This trial lasts only three days, but it's a quick solution for those wanting to test the service over a short period, such as a weekend.
