Disney+ Day: Deals and Park Perks and NFTs, Oh, My!
It has taken Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS) just two years to have a commanding presence in the streaming video market, and all it took to make up for lost time was to bundle its unmatched content catalog of family classics with original shows under the Disney+ banner.
Disney+ Day is an event that the media giant is celebrating on Friday, marking the day the premium service launched two years ago. The initial pitch was all of the content that was landing on the platform on Friday. A couple of the studio's biggest 2021 box office winners -- Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and Jungle Cruise -- will be hitting Disney+, along with other new and classic content.
Disney is even giving former and potentially new subscribers a price break. A month of Disney+ will be available for $1.99 for those signing up through Disney and even Target (NYSE: TGT) stores over the weekend. The subscriptions will automatically renew at the regular price of $7.99 a month after that if they're not cancelled. However, the Disney+ Day revolution will not be simply streamed. The media mogul is making sure it resonates throughout its vast empire.
