Disney Plus members can lock in the £1.99 a month deal today to watch Swift’s extended concert film when it premieres
Taylor Swift fans can stream the pop superstar’s new and extended concert film with a new £1.99 a month Disney+ deal. Premiering on March 15, The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version) gives Swifties the chance to experience the 14-time Grammy-winner’s record-breaking world tour from home.
The Eras Tour – Swift’s “cinematic experience” concert film – was released in cinemas around the world in October and grossed more than $260 million worldwide at the global box office, becoming the highest grossing concert film ever. Disney+ is now set to release a more than three-hour extended version, complete with several songs that were cut from the theatrical version.
Directed by British Grammy-nominee Sam Wrench, The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version) will feature ‘cardigan’ and four acoustic songs not featured in the theatrical or previously released on-demand version. With the new deal, Taylor Swift fans can sign up to Disney+ Standard with Ads plan to lock in the £1.99 a month price for three months – but you will have to act fast to snap up this offer before it ends the days before the film’s release on March 14.
The £1.99 deal is available for new and returning customers, letting them stream the concert film along with hottest new films and shows in up to full HD 1080p. After the three-month promotional period, Disney+ Standard with Ads auto-renews at the then-current monthly retail price – currently £4.99 a month – but at this point members are free to cancel.
As well as The Eras Tour, Disney+ is the streaming home of Star Wars, Marvel and National Geographic, and the only place to catch epic new samurai series Shōgun. Members can also enjoy blockbuster shows like Welcome to Wrexham and The Bear – both of which return to Disney+ for a third season later this year – and films including the Oscar-nominated Poor Things, which is coming soon.
The House of Mouse streamer is also gearing up for the second season of Extraordinary and the all-new original Renegade Nell, the fantastical action-adventure from Happy Valley creator Sally Wainwright. But if the thought of watching adverts while you stream puts you off, Disney+ members can expect on average just four minutes of ads or less for every hour of TV – less than on terrestrial channels – while an ad will only play before a film starts and not during.
If you’d prefer to stream without the occasional ad, Disney+ also offers the ad-free Standard and Premium plans at £7.99 and £10.99 a month respectively. There’s no hidden cost with a monthly Disney+ subscription and it can be cancelled at any time, while customers can get the equivalent of two months free with an annual subscription.
New and returning customers can subscribe to Disney+ Standard with Ads for its Epic Movies, Epic Offer at £1.99/month for three months from February 29 to March 14 2024.
Alternatively, Sky is offering a one-month free trial of its Sky TV, Sky Stream, Netflix and Discovery+ bundle, while also slashing its Sky Glass and Netflix package to £14 a month for three months.
