In a world dominated by streaming services, price fluctuations come with the territory. We hate to see the numbers behind that little dollar sign rise, but we love to see them fall. After setting yet another price hike last September, Disney is offering a sweet deal for streamers as part of the platform’s March promotion. From now until March 24, fans can get the Disney+ and Hulu bundle for just $4.99 a month for three months. The offer extends to both new and returning subscribers. Praise be to the mouse!
The special rate, which covers the ad-supported versions of the services, is 62 percent lower than the regular price of $12.99 a month. The discount follows three straight price hikes over the past three years. The timing lines up with several major projects that are headed to the platform—Zootopia 2 on March 11, Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord, and season 2 of Daredevil: Born Again on March 24. That, no doubt, had some sway in the decision.
Knocking off $8 from the regular price, Disney’s March bundle deal is the best we’ve seen so far in 2026. Disney reported an uptick in streaming profits in the October to December quarter last year. The discount does not apply to current subcribers of the ESPN Unlimited bundle that includes Disney+.
If you’re one of the many who’s been holding out for a significant price drop before submitting to Disney+ and Hulu, now is your time. Once again, the $4.99 bundle discount is up until March 24 and will last for three months. After those three months are up, the subscription will automatically renew at $12.99 a month.
The past few years have seen more and more of a convergence between Disney and Hulu, including a dynamic app redesign for iOS and tvOS this past October. By the end of 2026, the two will merge into a single, unified app.
