Is Tower of Terror on Disney Plus
Disney Plus Priced at $1.99 for First Month as Part of Company-Wide 'Disney Plus Day' Promotions
Weeklong marketing campaign to push streaming subscriptions spans TV, parks and more
The Walt Disney Co. has enlisted just about every part of the company for Disney Plus Day — which is actually a weeklong series of promotions, events and content premieres. It's ultimately aimed, of course, at driving up paying subscribers for the global streaming service.
Among the deals: Starting Monday (Nov. 8) through Sunday, Nov. 14, new and eligible returning Disney Plus subscribers can get one month of the service for $1.99 (available in the U.S. and select countries). After the first month, the service goes back to the regular price ($7.99/month in the U.S.) The media conglom is launching a new hub (at disneyplus.com/disneyplusday) where those who qualify for the offer can sign up and find info on other Disney Plus Day events and promotions.
As of July 3, Disney Plus had 116 million subscribers worldwide — and the Mouse House is hoping Disney Plus Day, marking the two-year anniversary of its first launch, will crank up direct-to-consumer numbers. Disney is scheduled to report earnings for its fiscal Q4 2021 on Nov. 10; CEO Bob Chapek previously said the company expected Disney Plus subscriber growth to slow in the September quarter.
Here are details on additional Disney Plus Day promotions and events:
