@Villaforever that is a question to ask Virgin and. Disney both of whom are independdnt of Sky and will have to make their own deal.

I'd Imagine a deal to include Disney+ standard with ads in their TV packages is more likely (can already add Standard or Premium to your Virgin bill with discounts often available) i can't imagine Virgin wanting to pay for a linear channel like this

The animated 1937 version of Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs is available to stream at any time on Disney+, which is available at no extra cost on most Sky subscriptions.

in the UK back in November 2025, Sky has announced that, thanks to testing on satellite, Disney Channel will relaunch in the UK and Ireland on 1st June 2026

I don't think there's been any official announcement, just a whole lot of speculation.

Also, it wouldn't really make sense to launch Disney Channel, now Disney+ is included with Sky. One could just watch Disney Channel programmes on Disney+.

Also, fun fact: I've never watched Bambi or Star Wars.

@Marlu-Nyu you say that but on the day Disney plus was released there was also the Disney plus movie channel that was launched. 

It seems people still prefer to watch linear channels as well.
