Disney+ to Add ESPN Sports Programming in Australia and New Zealand

The streaming platform will integrate over 10,000 hours of live and on-demand ESPN content at no additional cost in the coming months.

Disney+ will include ESPN and ESPN2 channels for subscribers in Australia and New Zealand, offering live sports, replays, and original programming.
The addition marks the first time ESPN content will be available on Disney+ in English-speaking markets outside North America.
Subscribers will gain access to popular ESPN shows like SportsCenter, The Pat McAfee Show, and NBA Today, as well as live NBA and NFL games.
This move positions Disney+ to compete more aggressively in the sports streaming market, challenging platforms like Foxtel's Kayo Sports and Amazon Prime Video.
No specific launch date has been announced, but the rollout is confirmed to occur in the coming months for standard and premium Disney+ subscribers.
