For over a century, Disney has delivered iconic animated classics that captivate audiences across generations. Since its launch in November 2019, Disney+ has made these beloved films and projects available for streaming on any device with a subscription.

Many streaming platforms offer trial periods, but Disney+ currently does not provide a free trial for new subscribers. This shift began in 2020, making Disney+ one of the first services to eliminate free trials. The Disney+ help center now confirms that no free trial options are available.

Are There Other Ways to Access Disney+ for Free?

Although Disney+ itself does not offer free trials, Verizon provides a six-month Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ bundle at no cost for Unlimited Plus or Unlimited Ultimate plan customers. After the promotional period, the bundle costs $10 per month. This is an excellent option for Verizon users to enjoy multiple streaming services, similar to Hulu’s bundle offerings.

Another workaround is to sign up for a Hulu + Live TV free trial, which includes Disney+ access. This three-day trial is brief but allows you to explore Disney+ over a weekend.
