Best Black Friday streaming deals for 2025: HBO Max, Apple TV+, Disney+/Hulu and more

Black Friday brings some of the year’s best streaming discounts — a helpful counter to recent price hikes across services. Many promos target new or eligible returning subscribers and run for a limited time, so check eligibility and sign‑up terms before committing.

Highlights include one‑year offers, multi‑month trials and bundle discounts across major platforms. These deals are ideal if you want to sample a service or lock in short‑term access to big shows and movies at a lower cost.

Top Black Friday streaming deals

Things to check before you buy

• Eligibility: Many promos apply only to new or qualifying returning subscribers — confirm whether your account qualifies.
• Renewal & billing: Intro prices usually auto‑renew at the standard rate; set a reminder if you plan to cancel before renewal.
• Sign‑up path: Some deals require subscribing directly (Apple TV+), while others let third‑party checkout (HBO Max via Prime Video) — follow the specified flow.
• Region & content: Catalogs, sports rights and streaming quality (4K availability) vary by country and title — verify what’s included where you live.

Final thoughts

Black Friday is a prime time to try new services or temporarily expand your streaming library at a lower cost. Pick promos that match how you watch (e.g., downloads, 4K, live sports) and be mindful of renewal prices after the promotional period.
