How to Watch ‘SparkShorts’ Online – Stream Season 1 Episodes
Last updated July 8, 2021
Over the many years that Pixar has been around, we have been enjoying their movies and their short series relating to their most famous movies like Cars and Toy Story. We have also enjoyed a lot of short films that tell a story and carry a heavy message. Now you can start watching SparkShorts on Disney+.
SparkShorts is a series in which Pixar employees are given just a few months and limited budgets to develop these cute animated short films. Until recently, they were released on Pixar's YouTube channel, but they will start being pushed to Disney+ from now on.
The short animations that Pixar artists created so far are already included over on Disney+, and you can check them out. The most recent one is called Float, and it tells the story of a father who tries to hide his son's ability to fly from the world. When the cat is out of the bag, and everyone knows that his son can fly, he must choose between going on the run or accepting his son as he is.
When and Where to Watch SparkShorts?
Up until now, SparkShorts films were released on YouTube, but they have now moved to Disney+. The most recent episode of it, called Float, was released on November 12th, 2019, along with the launch of Disney+. A new episode called Wind is expected to be released on December 14th, 2019, and another one called Loop will see the light on Disney+ on January 10th, 2020.
How Can I Live Stream SparkShorts?
Although watching Pixar films over on YouTube was great, it makes sense for this need to move these creations over to Disney+ so they can monetize them before they air. Therefore, if you want to watch SparkShorts, you're going to need to have a Disney+ account. Subscribing to Disney+ is relatively cheap, and it will cost you $6.99 per month or $69.99 per year. Since the platform has already been launched in the United States, Canada, The Netherlands, Australia, and New Zealand, you will find different prices depending on the country you are in.

(Note: You should be aware that not all Disney+ content is available in all markets, so you should check your own library to see if SparkShorts is there.)
Here is how you can set up your Disney+ account and begin a 7-day free trial:
- You have to start by visiting the Disney+ page and tapping the "Start free trial" button you will find there.
