Max Goes Live in Europe

Warner Bros. Discovery’s Max is now available in 20 countries across the Nordics, Iberia and Central and Eastern Europe, with further expansion planned in June and July.

The service arrives in France, Poland, Monaco and the Netherlands in June, with expansion to Belgium on July 1. By July, Max will be accessible in 25 European countries. Later this year, the platform will begin its Southeast Asian expansion.

Max offers an improved user experience and expanded content slate from HBO Max. Its European rollout comes ahead of the second season premiere of House of the Dragon and coverage of the Olympic Games Paris 2024.

JB Perrette, CEO and president of global streaming and games at Warner Bros. Discovery, said: “Today is a significant milestone in the globalization of Max.

With launches in over half the global markets still ahead of us, this is just the beginning of the next chapter for this great storytelling company.”
