Why we recommend Sling TV to watch the 2024 Disney Christmas Day Parade

Sling TV is the cheapest way to watch the parade on ABC! It’s got ABC in eight of the largest American media markets, including Los Angeles and New York, and prices start at just $46 per month for Sling’s Blue package. Once you’ve got Sling, you can use it to watch a ton of live sports, news, and entertainment channels.

From now until the end of the year, there are tons of holiday specials, movies, events, and more on TV, especially leading up to New Year’s Eve. So, if you are excited to watch the Christmas Day Parade, chances are that you will also want to catch all of the other holiday celebrations over the next week or so as well. If that’s the case, then Sling is the way to go. It is the cheapest way to get national broadcast channels and the biggest cable networks as well.

Normally, Sling costs $46 per month, but you can currently get 50% off your first month of service, meaning that you can watch all of the best holiday programming on TV for as little as $23. Sling has two different base packages, Orange and Blue. You can subscribe to one or both. If you do opt to combine Orange and Blue it will run you $61 monthly — still substantially cheaper than the comparable live TV streaming services — but with the first-month deal, you can stream everything on both packages for just $30.50.
