In a significant shift for Disney’s broadcast network strategy, Disney Channel Brazil has officially shut down after 23 years of operation. The channel, which launched in 2001, was a beloved source of localized Disney content for Brazilian audiences.

However, the end of its run had been anticipated, with Disney announcing the closure last year as part of a broader restructuring to adjust to the growing demand for streaming services.

The final broadcast of Disney Channel Brazil took place on March 1, 2025, with an episode of Phineas and Ferb, which is also seeing a revival.

Disney’s decision to shut down the channel follows a broader trend of reducing linear network channels in international regions, including Star Channel, Cinecanal, FX, National Geographic, and Baby TV.

Disney cited the need to evolve with the rapidly changing media and entertainment landscape, shifting focus to digital platforms like Disney+.

While the shutdown affects Brazil, other Latin American countries are not yet impacted, though it remains a possibility that Disney could scale back linear broadcasting further in the future.

With the continued growth of Disney+, the company is prioritizing streaming services, reflecting the evolving way audiences consume content.
