Apple TV+ is offering an exclusive opportunity for new customers to access its streaming service for free on the first weekend of January 2025. For two days, from January 4 to 5, Apple TV+ will be available at no charge across all devices where the service is offered, marking a special event for the platform.
This free weekend will allow viewers to enjoy popular and award-winning shows like Ted Lasso, The Morning Show, Severance, Shrinking, and Slow Horses, among others. Fans can also catch up on the latest seasons of Silo, Bad Sisters, Presumed Innocent, and Golden Globe-nominated titles like Disclaimer and Slow Horses.
Apple’s announcement, shared via a video on X (formerly Twitter), invited viewers to “see for yourself” by streaming the service for free on January 4-5. The promotion also includes the chance to watch critically acclaimed series before their next seasons, such as Severance and For All Mankind.
The announcement generated buzz online, with fans excited to explore shows they had heard about but never had the chance to watch. One fan expressed excitement to finally watch Slow Horses without worrying about canceling a free trial, while others planned to binge several recommended shows over the weekend.
Typically, Apple TV+ costs $9.99 per month with a seven-day free trial for new users. The platform raised its price from $6.99 to $9.99 in October 2023, following a previous hike in 2022. This free weekend is an unprecedented offer, giving viewers a rare opportunity to experience the service without the usual subscription fee.
