Do I get Disney Junior and Disney XD with my DISH package?
Disney Junior and Disney XD are available with America’s Top 200 and America’s Top 250 packages. The channels are not included with America’s Top 120 unless you add a Kids Pack to your package. Because they are separate networks from Disney Channel, having Disney Channel does not necessarily mean every Disney-branded channel is included. If you're choosing a package based on family programming, check the channel lineup for each tier before subscribing.
Can I stream Disney Channel through the DISH Anywhere app?
Yes, eligible Disney Channel programming can be streamed through the DISH Anywhere app when the channel is included in your DISH package.
