Disney+’s prices in Europe will also increase to €8.99.
During the 2020 Media, Communications & Entertainment Conference held earlier this year, Christine McCarthy, The Walt Disney Company’s Senior Executive Vice President & CFO, noted that the price of Disney+ would likely go up in the future as the volume of content increases on the service. McCarthy explained that “When more content is on the service, we’ll have some pricing power.”

It seems Disney now feels that it has enough content and is set to release enough new content on Disney+ in the near future to justify this price increase.
