Disney Junior was a Scandinavian television channel owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company Limited;[1] targeted for preschoolers targeting the Nordic countries.

## History

[edit]

It was launched in 2006 on the Canal Digital and Viasat satellite platforms. Cable networks launched it later on. Com Hem, the largest cable network in Sweden, launched it on 2 April 2007. Before 10 September 2011, this channel was called Playhouse Disney; the last show as Playhouse Disney was Special Agent Oso at 6:30 PM.[citation needed]

On 19 January 2024, The Walt Disney Company Nordic announced that Disney Junior in Denmark would be closed on 1 March 2024 and its content would be moved to Disney Channel;[2] while in February 2024, the company announced that Disney Junior would be shut down and merged with Disney Channel, at the same time to relaunch a new version of the main channel on 1 April 2024 and would also include a Disney Junior branded block during mornings and at weekends.[3][4]
