Below, we\u2019ve covered everything you need to know about the different Disney Plus price tiers, from the bare necessities to the final details.<\/p>\n<p>But before you go on, it\u2019s worth noting that from 29th February to 14th March 2024, Disney has lowered the cost of its basic Standard with Ads plan from \u00a34.99 a month to \u00a31.99 a month for three months. That means from now until June you could be saving \u00a39 (or 60%) on the very best content from Disney, Marvel, Star Wars and more.<\/p>\n<p><a

has three different pricing options for customers to choose from: \u00a34.99 a month, \u00a37.99 a month (or \u00a379.90 a year) and \u00a310.99 a month (or \u00a3109.90 a year).<\/p>\n<p>All plans give you access to Disney\u2019s complete library of films, TV shows and original content, but the lower priced plans give you less perks and put limits on features like downloads or the number of devices you can stream on simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p>When these price tiers were introduced in November 2023, anyone who did not change their subscription will have been automatically moved up to the \u00a310.99 a month plan, however this can be changed at any time through the settings on the Disney Plus app.<\/p>\n<p><a

Plus price tiers offer the same catalogue of content, whether that\u2019s from the worlds of Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic, or STAR.<\/p>\n<p>Where they differ is, the cheaper plans have lower quality video and audio specs, and limits the number of devices you can use. The most basic plan \u2013 Standard with Ads \u2013 will also not let you download content to a device and your streaming will be regularly interrupted by adverts.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/disneyplus.bn5x.net\/c\/1236178\/564546\/9358?subId1=radiotimes-0&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.disneyplus.com%2Fen-gb%2Fhome\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Get three months Disney Plus for \u00a31.99 a month<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong><a id=\"3\"\/>What do you get with the cheapest UK Disney Plus ad tier?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The cheapest Disney Plus tier is the Standard with Ads plan, costing \u00a34.99 a month. With this plan, you\u2019ll get access to Disney\u2019s complete catalogue, but will have to put up with adverts interrupting your viewing. Disney has stated that viewers can expect an average of four minutes of adverts for every one hour of TV.<\/p>\n<p>You won\u2019t be able to download content with the Standard with Ads plan and can only stream on up to two devices at once. The video quality is also capped at 1080p Full HD and the audio at 5.1.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, though, that until the 14th of March you can get this plan for just \u00a31.99 a month for three months, saving you \u00a39 in total.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a close look at what each plan offers:<\/p>\n<h3><strong><a id=\"4\"\/>Standard with Ads \u2013 <span style=\"text-decoration: line-through\">\u00a0\u00a34.99<\/span> \u00a31.99 a month for three months<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ad-supported viewing<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Stream on up to two devices at once<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>No downloads<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Video quality in up to 1080p Full HD<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Audio in 5.1 and stereo<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong><a id=\"5\"\/>Standard \u2013 \u00a37.99 or \u00a379.90 per year<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>No adverts<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Stream on up to two devices at once<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Downloads on up to 10 devices<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Video quality of up to 1080p Full HD<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Audio in 5.1 and stereo<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong><a id=\"6\"\/>Premium \u2013 \u00a310.99 or \u00a3109.90 per year<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>No adverts<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Stream on up to four devices at once<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Downloads on up to 10 devices<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Video quality of up to 4K UHD and HDR<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Audio in standards up to Dolby Atmos levels<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul> <h2><strong><a id=\"7\"\/>Is it worth paying more for Disney Plus in the UK?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It depends on what your priorities are. If, like most of us, you turned to streaming services to get away from adverts, then yes, it\u2019s probably worth investing in either the \u00a37.99 or \u00a310.99 subscription plans. But, if you\u2019re not bothered about sitting through a few extra minutes of ads \u2013 might be a good time to go and get a cup of tea \u2013 then \u00a34.99 is a great price for all of Disney Plus\u2019s content.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a big family, or a large group of people all sharing one subscription, you should probably go with the Premium price tier, as that allows you to stream on up to four devices at once and download on up to 10. This plan is also the best choice for people who like to get the best audio and video quality possible.<\/p>\n<p>If, however, there\u2019s less of you or you\u2019re not worried about watching in 4K UHD, then we\u2019d say go with the \u00a37.99 a month plan. You\u2019re still avoiding adverts and you can still download content to all your devices, but you\u2019re not paying any more than before.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/disneyplus.bn5x.net\/c\/1236178\/564546\/9358?subId1=radiotimes-0&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.disneyplus.com%2Fen-gb%2Fhome\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Get three months Disney Plus for \u00a31.99 a month<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Want something to watch your new subscription on?
