Nostalgia is the name of the game on Disney+ in August 2026! This month’s most exciting offerings are packed with throwbacks to the Disney Channel “golden age.” From a new season of Wizards Beyond Waverly Place to the hotly-anticipated Camp Rock 3 and more, it’s all about balancing the buzzy and new with the classic.
Check out our top picks for the month, then keep reading for the full schedule!
Top Picks on Disney+ in August 2026
Wizards Beyond Waverly Place (Season 3)
After losing Alex at the end of Season 2, the Russos have their biggest challenge ever in front of them. Billie learns the only way to rescue her mom is to reunite with her long-lost father. But can she believe her powers are capable of doing good? It will take all the combined power of the family to defeat the enemy that threatens them this time.
Streaming August 5
X-Men ’97 (Season 2)
We thought Season 1 was intense, but it’s got nothing on the twists and turns of Season 2! The season has already seen the rise of Apocalypse, at least one shocking death, and battles that could reshape the universe. Catch the last few episodes of this animated breakout hit (before the live-action X-Men return in Avengers: Doomsday).
Streaming Wednesdays through August 12
Camp Rock 3
Rock on (again)! A new generation heads to Camp Rock for a summer of sun, fun, music, and teenage drama. But, of course, it’s not all about the newcomers. Connect 3 is back at the camp, searching for their next opening act. It’s sure to be a nostalgia-packed throwback to the late-summer fun we all remember.
Airing on Disney Channel August 13; streaming August 14
Disney Princess: The Ultimate Concert Celebration
Can’t make it to this year’s D23 convention? You’re in luck — one of the marquee events is being streamed on Disney+! Disneyland celebrates “World Princess Week” with a multimedia concert special featuring live music, animations, light and water features, and much more.
Streaming August 16
LION
It’s The Lion King in real life! This docuseries follows a young lion, named Kio, over the course of four years as he grows from an adorable cub to the king of his pride. It’s a stunning reminder of the majesty of nature — and a reminder of how all of nature is connected and owes it to each other to take care of the planet we share.
