Disney Channel (international)

==1989 (postponed)==
Disney Channel was originally planned to launch in 1989 in the United Kingdom on the newly launched Sky satellite television service. It would have used the American version's then-current second logo (see below); however, due to an apparent dispute, the original launch was postponed. Sky Television filed a lawsuit against The Walt Disney Company for not launching the channel on the original date, and the launch was moved to October 1st, 1995.
==1995–1997==
In 1995, the first international versions of Disney Channel were launched in Taiwan (March 29th) and the UK (October 1st). The initial on-air look used the American counterpart's 1986 logo, with the idents created by Lambie-Nairn.
The idents were used in tandem with the next logo until August 1997.
==1997–2003==
===1997–1999===
On March 22nd, 1997, Disney Channel was launched in France and it received a unique on-air design package, although the accompanying idents would then be used in other Disney Channel international networks beginning in 1998. The idents mainly use red and blue colors on irregularly shaped objects that form the logo.
===1999–2003===
On September 1st, 1999, Disney Channel in the UK received a brand overhaul as the channel adopted a new circle-based logo, with three symmetrical ellipses forming the iconic Mickey Mouse head shape. Along with the logo change, a new ident set and on-air graphics package, created by French design agency Gédéon alongside several other animation studios, was introduced on the same day. The branding was carried over to other Disney Channel international networks in the following months.
==2002–2014==
===2002–2010===
Beginning on November 1st, 2002, Disney Channel internationally adopted the same logo as Disney Channel US that was launched a month prior. The idents and graphics were created by PMcD Design and CA Square. In 2007, the 'Bounce' look was replaced by new idents and bumpers which feature a ribbon that twirls around the screen before transforming to the 2002 logo.
===2010–2014===
In 2010, Disney Channel internationally introduced the rounded square logo, which was previously introduced in the U.S. at the time.
==2014–present==
On July 1st, 2014, Disney Channel rolled out its current logo in France, Italy, Spain, Portugal and Oceania, which originated from the German channel in January and has already since adopted by the US network on May 24th. Since then, more countries have adopted the logo. As of 2023, this logo is still currently used in India. However, in Italy, the logo was shortly revived in 2020 as an on-screen bug before the channel closed in that country, to coincide with the launch of Disney+.
===2017–2023===
This logo was used in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Southeast Asia before their closures in late 2021 and early 2022.
===2019–present===
The outline is darker, and the word 'Disney' is now in white and light green gradient text. The logo was used in Southeast Asia, Canada, Japan and more.
==2022–present==
In 2022, Disney Channel International introduced a new logo which began rolling out on June 24.
