Apple TV+ is exclusive Peanuts streaming home through 2030

Apple TV+ has focused almost entirely on creating original content, but one exception is a partnership with Peanuts that started in 2020. Now, Apple has announced that TV+ will remain Peanuts’ exclusive streaming home through at least 2030—and shared ways to watch select Peanuts holiday specials for free.

Apple extends partnership with Peanuts and announces free streaming dates

When Apple was first rumored to be building a TV streaming service, many assumed the company would license outside content like Netflix had successfully done for years.

Instead, Apple went all-in on originals—with some very limited exceptions.

Peanuts has been one such exception. While Apple TV+ does feature brand new Peanuts specials created by and for Apple, the streamer also houses classic licensed specials like:

Today, Apple announced that its partnership with Peanuts has been extended another five years—until 2030.

That means Apple TV+ will continue being the exclusive streaming home for all things Peanuts.

As it does every year, the company also highlighted dates that select Peanuts specials will be available free for all users, even those without a TV+ subscription.

On October 18-19, the Halloween special can be streamed for free. November 15-16 you can stream the Thanksgiving special, and December 13-14 the freebie is the Christmas special.

If you subscribe to Apple TV+, you can watch these and all other Peanuts content at any time, all throughout the year.

Apple TV+ is available for $12.99 per month and features hit TV shows and movies like Ted LassoSeveranceThe Morning ShowSilo, and Shrinking.
