It's not just tech products that get big discounts during the sales season, but subscription services too, and we expect this Black Friday to be no different. Some of the best streaming services are already offering early discounts to new and returning subscribers, making it a great time to bag an early saving.

In our experience, the best Black Friday deals for the larger streamers like Hulu, Disney Plus, Paramount Plus and Max tend to arrive closer to the sales day itself, which falls on November 29 this year. But there are often plenty of introductory offers, free trials and bundled discounts available sooner if you don't want to wait.

In this guide, I'll compile all the best streaming deals available online and will continue to update it with new offers as they're announced closer to Black Friday, so make sure to bookmark this page to check back on the latest discounts as more get added.

Black Friday streaming deals: FAQs

When will the Black Friday streaming deals start in 2024?

Early Black Friday streaming deals are already starting to become available. We're already seeing discounts for services like Sling TV and Peacock in the US and Sky TV and DAZN in the UK, which we've included above.

We're expecting more offers to be announced by mid-November with more deals becoming available during the week of Black Friday and Cyber Monday itself. This is what we saw last year, with the likes of Disney offering big savings across bundles for Disney Plus and Hulu, and more.

Is Black Friday the best time to sign up to a streaming service?

Black Friday is a great time to take advantage of the best streaming deals, as a lot of the offers can get you a cheap subscription that lasts you until next year's sales period.

However, if you don't want to wait to sign up (we get it, there are just too many great shows and movies to catch up on to hold off any longer), there are plenty of year-round savings to be found with introductory offers, free trials and discounted bundles.

Introductory offers have been a staple in attracting new subscribers to platforms, and while we have noticed over recent years that there are less free trials available than what there used to be, there are still some around. Where we've seen the opposite of this is bundles.

There are a growing number of streaming bundles increasingly available and we only expect this trend to grow as streaming turns more into cable. The biggest new streaming bundle is the Disney Plus, Hulu, and Max mega bundle that arrived in July in the US, which offered a 38% saving on the cost of buying each of the services.

But Black Friday and Cyber Monday are by the far the best times to snag the biggest savings across the best streaming services, as the discounts are a lot larger than what we regularly see throughout the year. Make sure to check back in on this guide for all the latest Black Friday streaming deals as they get annnounced.

What Black Friday streaming deals should I expect?

Not every streaming service will offer a discount during the Black Friday sales, but there are a few regulars that seem to crop up more than others.

The best Black Friday streaming deals we've seen over the past few years have been for Hulu in the US. The service surprised us in 2023 by bringing back its lowest ever price of $0.99 a month for an annual plan. That was last seen in 2020 before rising to $1.99 a month in 2021 and 2022.

Of course, Disney has also offered savings on Hulu and Disney Plus bundles. Will we see similar deals in 2024? Following the price hike for Disney Plus, ESPN Plus and Hulu in October, it might be that the entertainment juggernaut looks to attract new sign ups to its streaming services with more offers. That was the case in September when it offered an incredible deal for Disney Plus that was available just in time for Lost's 20th anniversary, so we could see similar savings closer to Black Friday.

There have also been previous Black Friday deals available for services like Max, Shudder, Sling TV, Peacock, Starz, Apple TV Plus and Paramount Plus, which we expect might resurface again in this year's sales. Max shocked subscribers with an immediate price hike in June 2024, so it might look to attract new signs up with a discount (it has been known to offer savings of up to 80% on its plans). Outside of these, it's not likely that we'll see offers for Netflix or Prime Video.

Last year's best Black Friday streaming deals in the US

Disney Plus and Hulu bundle: $9.99 $2.99 a month for a year!
Oh she is so back! Last year you could get yourself Disney Plus and Hulu for sub-$5 in one of the best Cyber Monday streaming deals we've ever seen – and it just got even better in 2023. With new subscribers able to get Hulu's ad-supported plan for just $0.99 a month for a whole year, you can add Disney Plus for an additional $2. Considering both ad-supported plans usually cost $7.99, that's a huge $12.99 saving.

Offer ends November 28

Hulu: $7.99 $0.99 a month for first year
Down to its lowest ever price – last seen during Black Fridaty/Cyber Monday in 2020 – you can now get Hulu's With-Ads plan for just $0.99 a month for the first 12 months of your subscription. That's a massive 87% saving on the Hulu price, and not likely to be a rate we'll see for another year now. So lock in, and consider adding STARZ as a premium add-on, paying just $0.99 for your first six months (usually $9.99 a month in addition).

Offer ends November 28

FuboTV: $40 discount on first 2 months of Pro, Elite, and Premier plans
For the first two months of your subscription to FuboTV, you can get one of the best cord cutters at a discounted rate in this early Cyber Monday streaming deal. Opt for either its Pro, Elite, or Premier plan and save $20 off its monthly rate for the first two months. That means you'll save $40 total before paying the full monthly rate. We haven't seen a deal like this from FuboTV, Cyber Monday or otherwise. So if you're after a cord-cutter with an amazing selection of live TVs, this offer is a great opportunity to sample its enormous offering.

Offer available for a limited time only
