Disney Plus officially goes live in the US, Canada and the Netherlands tomorrow (November 12). However, since these countries (and different parts of them, in the case of the US and Canada) are in different time zones, there’s a multitude of different local launch times for the service.
If you live in the US, Canada or the Netherlands, here’s when you’ll be able to stream Disney Plus, in your local time.
Disney Plus will go live at the equivalent of 11am GMT − though, of course, it won’t launch in the UK until March 2020. Here’s what 11am GMT is around the world:
Netherlands
- 12pm CET
US
- 1am HST
- 2am AKST
- 3am PST

- 5am CST
- 6am EST
Canada
- 3am PST
- 4am MST
- 5am CST
- 6am EST
- 7am AST
- 7:30am NST
This essentially means that everyone apart from people based in the Netherlands will be able to check Disney Plus out during the work commute.

Its launch comes hot on the heels of Apple TV Plus, though the iPhone maker’s streaming platform hasn’t had the greatest of starts. Early review of its big-budget originals, which star some massive names, haven’t been great. However, at $4.99 per month − free for a year if you’ve recent picked up an Apple device − it’s very affordable.
