With effect from October 21, 2025, The Walt Disney Company plans to increase the cost of Disney+ subscriptions, its flagship streaming service. The company will be raising prices for the third time in three years.
Ad-supported Disney+ will go up $2 (from $9.99 to $11.99/month) while ad-free Disney+ will go up $3 (from $15.99 to $18.99/month). At the same time, Hulu has a stand-alone subscription that costs $9.99 at the moment. The ad-supported subscription will cost $11.99 per month as of October 21.
Hulu’s ad-free subscription, currently priced at $18.99 per month, will not change. So, only Hulu members who select the “with commercials” service will have to pay an additional $2.
Disney decided to raise the subscription price for the streaming service. Currently, the subscription for ESPN Select costs $11.99/month. But starting October 21, the price will increase to $12.99/month.
Disney also offers a bundle that includes the subscription for all three: Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN Select. This Unlimited Bundle comes with ads, and for the first twelve months, the subscription costs $29.99/month. Fortunately, Disney decided not to increase the subscription fees for the Unlimited Bundle.
The annual premium subscription plan will also see a considerable increase, from $159.99 to $189.99. Aside from these, several other bundles will experience price increases; only a few bundles remain untouched, including Hulu Premium (without advertisements) at $18.99 per month and Disney Plus, Hulu Bundle Premium (without ads) at $19.99.
