Disney Channel is the Belgian version of the same name owned by the Walt Disney Company.

Disney Channel was launched in Flanders on 1 November 2009, as a subfeed from the Dutch version. The Flemish channel was split from the Dutch version in 2012.

For the French part of Belgium, the French version aired in the country until 29 June 2015, when a French Belgian localized feed was launched.

The Flemish and French feeds have the same schedule with their own ad breaks.

## History

[edit]

The French version of Disney Channel was launched in Belgium on 31 March 2003 as an option of the digital cable offers with Canal+.[1]

The French Disney channels were added to Belgacom TV on 1 December 2006.[2]

The Dutch version of Disney Channel was launched on 30 October 2009 on Belgacom TV, and on 1 November on Telenet along with the French channel.[3]

Since 2012, the Flemish and Dutch Disney Channel became two separate versions, each with their own programming.

A French Belgian feed was launched on 29 June 2015, replacing Disney Channel France except in satellite. The French and Flemish feeds have almost the same schedule, they can have differences like TV shows only dubbed in French like Disney Fam Jam.

The Belgian Disney Channel is available in HD on all its providers.
