All 10 episodes of The Bear Season 3 are streaming in the United States on Hulu as of August 18, 2026. The season was released as a complete-season drop—not weekly—at 9 p.m. Eastern (6 p.m. Pacific) on Wednesday, June 26, 2024. Hulu is the simplest U.S. viewing route; Disney+ availability depends on your country and subscription configuration.
Where to stream The Bear Season 3
United States: Hulu
In the U.S., Season 3 is available through Hulu, where FX’s TV-MA series remains in the current catalog: Hulu’s official catalog. You do not need a conventional cable FX channel subscription to watch the season on demand.

Disney+ access depends on territory and plan
Some U.S. Disney+ subscriptions expose a limited selection of Hulu programming, including The Bear, through Disney’s Hulu integration. Your plan, account setup, app and device can affect what appears. If the show is difficult to find in Disney+, open Hulu directly first. Disney’s listing is available at DisneyPlus.com.
Do not assume that a standalone Disney+ subscription includes Season 3 in every country. Outside the U.S., check your local Disney+ catalog.

The Bear Season 3 release schedule
The schedule was a single simultaneous U.S. release:
| Episodes | Original U.S. release |
|---|---|
| Episodes 1–10 | Wednesday, June 26, 2024, at 9 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. CT / 7 p.m. MT / 6 p.m. PT |
FX initially announced Thursday, June 27, 2024, but the U.S. streaming launch moved forward by a day. The announcement is documented by D23, and the moved-up time was reported by Forbes. These are historical release details, not a future schedule.

How to watch in the U.S.
- Open Hulu’s official website or a Hulu-supported app.
- Search for The Bear.
- Open the series page and select Season 3.
- Choose any of the 10 episodes.
A standalone Hulu plan or a qualifying Disney+/Hulu bundle provides the relevant access. A traditional cable subscription by itself is not the practical on-demand route unless it includes a supported Hulu or FX streaming entitlement.
How to watch outside the U.S.
The original international rollout used Disney+ in selected markets, including the UK, Ireland, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Gibraltar, the Balkans, Singapore, Hong Kong and the Philippines. Other territories had different timing or availability. Search your local Disney+ catalog rather than assuming the U.S. Hulu arrangement applies, and do not treat Disney+ availability in one country as proof of worldwide rights.
Rank #4
Which subscription makes sense?
| Option | Best for | Important qualification |
|---|---|---|
| Hulu standalone | Watching The Bear and other Hulu on-demand programming | Hulu’s page showed a $11.99/month standalone price signal checked August 16, 2026; confirm the current tier and checkout price. |
| Disney+/Hulu bundle | Households that already use both services | Hulu showed bundle price signals of $12.99/month for a listed Basic option and $19.99/month for a listed Premium option on August 16, 2026; plan names and prices can change. See Disney’s bundle page. |
| Disney+/Hulu/ESPN bundle | Viewers who also want ESPN | Disney’s help page listed options beginning at $19.99/month and higher tiers; it is unnecessary for The Bear alone. Check current Disney bundle pricing. |
| Hulu + Live TV | People who also need live channels, news or sports | Hulu showed $89.99/month for a listed ad-supported Live TV configuration on August 16, 2026. It is excessive for a completed 10-episode season; see Hulu + Live TV. |
For one completed season, choose the least expensive current Hulu plan that includes the series. Check Hulu’s live signup page for any trial or promotion: eligibility, duration and availability vary, so a universal free trial should not be assumed.

- Using June 27 as the actual U.S. premiere: that was the announced date; the release moved to June 26.
- Looking for weekly dates: the entire 10-episode season dropped simultaneously.
- Assuming FX cable is required: U.S. on-demand viewing is through Hulu.
- Assuming Disney+ works everywhere: rights and Hulu integration vary by country and plan.
- Relying on old prices: subscription prices and bundle names change, so verify the official page before signing up.
