When and where to watch the finale
| Release stage | Date and time | Availability |
|---|---|---|
| Disney Channel finale marathon | Tuesday, August 4, 2026, at 8:00 p.m. EDT/PDT | Disney Channel and Disney Channel On Demand |
| Disney+ streaming | Wednesday, August 5, 2026; exact unlock hour not stated by Disney | Disney+ in the U.S. and select international markets |
Disney specified a broadcast time for the Disney Channel marathon but did not announce an exact Disney+ unlock hour. It also did not list every international territory or provide a worldwide release time, so August 5 should be treated as the stated streaming date for the named markets rather than a universal clock-time launch.
How this differs from earlier release dates
The August 2026 date is for the series’ four-part finale event, not its original premiere or the Season 2 premiere.

What Disney announced about the finale
Disney described the August 2026 release as a four-part finale event and the series’ final chapter. Its July 15 announcement also reported more than 101 million views on Disney Channel’s YouTube content, according to YouTube Analytics, with the figure covering lifetime views through February 16, 2026.
The same announcement said the series ranked among Nielsen’s top five titles overall by views with kids ages 6–11, teens ages 12–17, and adults ages 18–24 during October 30–November 26, 2024. Disney’s account of the Nielsen Streaming Content Ratings specifies live viewing and titles with at least three episodes and at least eight minutes; the ranking is Disney’s reporting of that data.
