ESPN+ is the place to be for sports fans, but how much does it cost in 2025? I've been keeping track of the streaming service's price rises, so read on to find out more about the current ESPN+ price.
Whether you're interested in bundles, season passes, or just a standard subscription, I've got everything you need to know listed in this guide. I also compare ESPN+ to some of the other streaming services to see how they match up.
ESPN+ prices at a glance
ESPN+ only has one main pricing tier, unlike some other streaming services that offer benefits like ad-free ones. This is priced monthly and annually.
But there's other ways to get the most out of your subscription. ESPN+ offers a Pay Per View package for an annual cost, which gives you an annual subscription to ESPN+ as well as access to the next UFC PPV event.
You can also choose to bundle your ESPN+ subscription with Disney+ and Hulu, and there's two options available here. Basic gets you all three with ads, and Premium gets you all three with ads only on ESPN+.
It might sound obvious, but if you do want to access Disney+ and Hulu content, then a bundle offers a great saving compared to signing up for each separately as that would cost $31.97 a month otherwise. Instead, you can save over 45% through a bundle – see more details below.
How does the ESPN+ price compare to other streaming services?
While ESPN+ is sports-focused, it's still worth comparing it to some of the other streaming services out there. Here's a rundown of how they compare, including how much you'd pay if you chose to get Disney+ and/or Hulu outside of the bundles.
Some of these other streamers do have sports, with Apple TV+ delivering live MLB and MLS sports, and Netflix introducing live events such as WWE Wrestling, but ESPN+ remains the place to be if you want the biggest and best sports coverage.
ESPN+'s tier is the most expensive when compared to others' ad-free tiers (with the exception of Apple TV+ who does not have ads), so it's up to you to decide whether you want to make use of this service.
If you are an active sports fan and you watch games regularly, it is definitely worth signing up, but if you are a more casual fan you may find other options to be better suited to you.
What can you watch on ESPN+?
Whether you want to be able to keep an eye on scores while riding the train home, or you're considering cutting the cord and need an option that gives you access to your favorite teams on gameday, ESPN+ has you covered.
This service includes live streams for tons of sports events including UFC, PGA, MLS, MLB, and more. Between live events you can also take a peek at an on-demand library of past games, and documentaries in the 30 for 30 series.
On ESPN+ you can stream live sports from the best leagues in the world, alongside original series from the biggest names in sports. Subscribers can enjoy thousands of live events as well as a variety of college sports, including football, basketball, and baseball from 20+ conferences.
Plenty of ESPN+ Originals and studio shows are available on demand too. Since sports is ever-changing and there's new live coverage to enjoy, you'll want to keep an eye on the ESPN+ schedule to see what's coming up next.
ESPN+ price: FAQs
What devices can I watch ESPN+ on?
All things considered, ESPN+ is pretty easy to tune into. That’s because ESPN+ is built off the back of ESPN+’s already robust omnipresence on PCs, tablets and the ESPN+ app on smartphones. ESPN+ is now available on Xbox One and PS4 consoles, too.
Specifically, you can tune into ESPN+ on your web browser by heading to the service's website and signing up for the service.
If you’re more of a mobile sports watcher, download the ESPN app from either the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and sign up for the service there. Or, if you like the traditional feel of sitting on the couch to watch the game, ESPN+ is available on Apple TV, Chromecast and the Amazon Fire TV platform - and now on the Roku platform, too.
Can I watch ESPN+ in 4K and HD?
While you're unable to watch ESPN+ in 4K, the sports streaming service offers content that is mostly available to stream at 60fps 1080p. In other words, Full HD. In some circumstances, depending on the strength of your internet connection, etc. you can expect streams to downgrade to 720p when necessary.
Is there an ESPN+ free trial in 2025?
Unfortunately, there hasn't been an ESPN+ free trial for some time, but there is still a way to try out the sport network's streaming service without having to shell out for a subscription right away.
While ESPN+ doesn't directly offer a free trial, you can try out the service for free for three days by signing up to the Hulu with Live TV plan. That gets you access to ESPN+, Disney Plus and Hulu's Live TV plan all in one bundled subscription, letting you try out the sports service as part of the trial offer.

How do I cancel ESPN+?
ESPN+ is one of the better streaming services for commitment-phobes, especially for the shorter term monthly subscription.
As a sub only lasts 30 days, you just need to remember to cancel before it comes to an end – head to manage subscription on the ESPN website or app and confirm your cancellation and you can then walk away from ESPN+ without difficulty.
We really like the flexible nature of this service, which takes its cues from the likes of Netflix.
Its a similar procedure for yearly subscribers - if you looking to bail from the service, just remember to cancel before your 12 months are up.
