In a long-awaited announcement, WarnerMedia has revealed that its HBO Max direct-to-consumer streaming platform will make its European debut on 26 October with Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Spain and Andorra.
These initial six territories will be joined in 2022 by 14 additional territories as part of its phased global roll-out. These comprise Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Moldova, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia and Slovenia. Additional territory launches are also planned for next year.
HBO Max in Europe will offer entertainment from WarnerMedia’s leading content brands, including Warner Bros, HBO, DC and Cartoon Network, as well as award-winning US and international Max Originals, all in one place for the first time in Europe. It will be available to new customers as well as existing customers of HBO España, HBO Nordic, HBO Go and HBO Portugal (billed either directly or via eligible partners).
