Disney Channel (originally called The Disney Channel from 1996 to 1997) is a pay television network that is broadcast in Australia and New Zealand. It is the flagship television property owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company in Australia. Launched in 1996, the network is targeted towards children and their families, with original series and movies.

The network's programming is composed of original animated and live action television series sourced from Disney Channel in the United States, including their original made-for-cable movies, as well as screenings of Disney's theatrical releases and other acquired programming.

It is currently available on Foxtel and Fetch TV in Australia, and on SKY Network Television in New Zealand.

History

Disney Channel was first broadcast by Optus on 8 June 1996; the first program scheduled was the television premiere of Aladdin.[1] It became available though Austar on 1 April 2001,[2] through Foxtel on 1 December 2001,[3][4] and through TransTV on 21 January 2002,[5]. It was formerly available on SelecTV from September 2008 until the closure of its English service in late 2010.[6][7] The network launched on New Zealand's pay television network, SKY Network Television, on 24 December 2003.[8]

Disney launched the Playhouse Disney channel in Australia and New Zealand on 5 December 2005, which later rebranded as Disney Junior in 2011.[9][10] An additional network named Disney XD launched on 10 April 2014, featuring programming targeted towards boys aged 6–14.[11] Disney XD ceased broadcasting on 6 January 2019, with a selection of programming moving to Disney Channel thereafter, including Star Wars Resistance and various Marvel animations.[12] With Disney XD being integrated into the main channel, the service would now contain fewer advertisement breaks.[13]

In August 2016, Disney Channel Australia hosted its third local "FanFest" event, at Martin Place in Sydney.[14] The network organised a concert featuring American singer Sabrina Carpenter, which was hosted by the Australian network's personalities, and live streamed on the website.[14] General manager of the network, Leisa Sadler, noted the importance of brand activation through having a physical event for fans to connect with, and appreciated the opportunity to promote the channel's local programming.[14] More than 2,000 people attended the event and over 3,000 watched online.[14] Previous "FanFest" events featured personalities Bridgit Mendler and Ross Lynch.[14]

Programming

Disney Channel's programming schedule mainly consists of live action sitcoms and animated series for children, sourced from Disney Channel in the United States. Titles airing in the 2000s included Hannah Montana, Kim Possible, Lizzie McGuire, The Series and Sabrina.[8][15] Programs broadcast by the network in the 2010s have included Andi Mack, Austin & Ally, The Series, Girl Meets World, K.C. Undercover and Raven's Home.[16][17][18][19]

Disney Channel's schedule also includes internationally produced series acquired by Disney Channel Worldwide, including The Series, Rolling with the Ronks! and The ZhuZhus.[17][20][21] In January 2017, Disney Channel acquired the license to air the local Australian series Grace Beside Me, a co-production between NITV and ABC, which premiered in March 2019.[22][23]

The network airs event screenings of Disney's theatrical releases, with Pixar films including A Bug's Life, Monsters, Inc., and classic animations such as Aladdin and The Emperor's New Groove.[1][8][18] Also featured are Disney Channel's original made-for-cable movies, including the High School Musical and Descendants franchises.[15][18]

Disney Channel Australia has also commissioned and produced several of its own scripted drama series, including a local version of As the Bell Rings, and original miniseries Mind Over Maddie.[15][24][25] In 2013, the network debuted a local short-form series titled Hanging With, which takes the form of an afternoon variety show, featuring two hosts who act as the faces of Disney Channel.[18] The hosts, currently Ashleigh “Ash” Wells and Tim Matthews, present Disney programs and news, along with celebrity interviews and other comedy segments.[18] Other local programming has included Backstage Pass and Radio Disney Insider.[14][26]

Programs that moved to the network after the closure of Disney XD in 2019 included Big City Greens, DuckTales, Gravity Falls, Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon, Star Wars Resistance and various Marvel animations including Marvel's Avengers Assemble and Marvel's Spider-Man.[12]
