Black Friday streaming deals: every way to save money on a subscription right now

Disney+, Hulu and ESPN icons on Apple TV.

It's the time of the year that streaming fans look forward to: Black Friday brings discounts on many of the best streaming services and best live TV streaming services, and it's just around the corner.

Black Friday 2024 falls on Friday, November 29, and ahead of the big day we're seeing discounts on the monthly and annual price of various online video platforms. We saw some great reductions last year and signs point to the same happening this year.

If you want to sign up for a new streaming service for a reduced price, we can help in two ways. Firstly, we'll update our perennial streaming deals page (the one you're on right now) with the best discounts, so you can find them all in one page. Secondly, we're running a whole host of individual pages giving specific and in-depth advice about specific streaming services, and you can find these below. Our guides will be particularly important in the run-up to Black Friday, so you can plan your purchases.

Streaming services aren't the most expensive things you can buy, but subscribe to more than a handful and your monthly bill can end up being rather sizeable. That's why streaming deals are really handy, to help you save money while you test services.

To help you save your money, we've brought together a list of the best streaming deals that you should consider, and you can find it all below. Most of the streaming deals out there run for a limited amount of time, but some are permanent, and we've included both on the below list. Of course, if it runs out soon, we'll include a time limit on the entry too.

This list gets updated frequently to add new deals and remove expired ones, so keep checking back if nothing piques your interest.

Streaming deals FAQs

What is the best streaming deal?

Streaming service deals come and go — if they didn't, they wouldn't be a 'deal', just a regular price. But there's always one or two standout deals.

In the US, the Disney Bundle (Hulu, Disney Plus and ESPN Plus) is a great option for people who want all three services. The cost, $13.99, is less than you'd pay for any two of the services and gets you a third totally free as well.

In the UK, it's usually mobile operator bundles that offer the best deals, so when you're buying a new phone contract, you can often use that to get yourself cheap streaming service subscriptions.

When do the best streaming deals take place?

Some deals, like bundles and trials, roll all year round. But others only pop up sporadically.

A great time to look for streaming service deals is around Black Friday, which in 2022 falls on Friday 25 November. In previous years, we've seen great discounts on Disney Plus, AMC Plus, Discovery Plus, Hulu and a fair few Prime Video channels.

Certain companies have special 'days' too, like Disney Plus Day and Amazon Prime Day, and we often see discounts on the corresponding services for a limited time.

What makes a good streaming deal?

When streaming services were new, each offered plenty of deals to try and get you to try this new-fangled way of watching TV. That's not the case anymore, and actual discounts on streaming services are few and far between.

So a "good deal" on a streaming service can be anything that lets you save money, but the most common we see are bundles, that group multiple services in for a lower price. As long as you want all the services, this is a good way to save.

The best deals are the straight-up discounts though, especially on annual subscriptions, as they save you the most amount of cash (as monthly deals only reduce one month's bill).
