Disney XD was a children's channel that broadcast 16 hours a day, between 6:00 and 22:00 CET. It replaced Jetix and Toon Disney on September 12, 2009.^[2][3] Jetix used to end its broadcast daily at 6:00 PM. Disney XD was funded by advertising, as was Jetix, while Toon Disney was commercial-free.

Much of the distribution used by the two former channels was taken over by Disney XD. This includes the analogue frequency in YouSee's cable network, previously used by Jetix and Hallmark Channel.^[4] The channel was also available terrestrially in Denmark from November 1, 2009, via the Boxer platform.^[5] Jetix was granted a license to broadcast terrestrially in Sweden in March 2008, but were yet to use it due to transmission disputes.

The targeting ages were 6 to 15.

The channel was shut down on December 31, 2020.^[6]
