Disney Plus Will Stream Super Bowl LXI in Partnership with ESPN and ABC
Disney announced that its streaming service, Disney Plus, will broadcast Super Bowl LXI on February 14th, 2027. The game will be available to subscribers simultaneously as it airs on ESPN and ABC in the United States. International audiences across more than 55 markets—including Latin America, South Africa, and Australia—will also have access through Disney Plus. The decision follows a trend of major sports events being streamed via subscription platforms; this year’s Super Bowl was broadcast live on NBC’s Peacock service, which saw an increase in subscribers. In the lead-up to next year's game, Disney Plus will offer two Monday Night Football games as part of its programming lineup. This move underscores Disney’s strategy to leverage major sporting events to attract and retain streaming users while competing with other platforms like Peacock.
