Sky is introducing a new offering in 2026. The television provider has officially announced the launch of a fresh Ultimate plan that combines its premium channels such as Sky Atlantic, Sky One, and Sky Documentaries with Netflix and Disney+ for a single monthly fee. Additionally, subscribers will soon have access to HBO Max, which will debut later this week, offering a variety of popular on-demand shows at no extra charge. Furthermore, later this year, viewers will also be able to enjoy Hayu, which will bring a diverse range of reality TV content to audiences in the UK.
Even though the full Hayu launch is set for July, Sky has pleasantly surprised fans by providing an early sneak peek. A new update named “Taste of Hayu” is now accessible, allowing viewers to watch over 150 episodes from some of the platform’s most beloved franchises.
The featured shows include Below Deck Mediterranean, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, and Vanderpump Rules.
This preview is open to Sky Stream and Sky Glass customers with the Ultimate TV package, as well as Sky Q and Sky+ users, enabling them to watch selected seasons on demand.
The complete rollout of Hayu in July will grant reality TV enthusiasts access to the entire catalog, offering hundreds of additional series to enjoy. Moreover, new episodes of major shows will be accessible on the same day they premiere in the US, all included within the Sky TV experience.
In a statement, Sky expressed, “Reality fans are in for a treat, with a selection of Hayu’s most talked-about shows now available to watch for Sky TV subscribers. Customers can enjoy select seasons of favorites straight from their homepage, on demand and included within their subscription—offering a taste of what’s to come before the full launch of Hayu on Sky in July.”
Hayu will join Netflix and Disney+ as part of the Ultimate package, with HBO Max set to join next week, followed by full Hayu integration later in the year.
The new £24 package includes:
– Netflix Standard with Ads
– Disney+ Standard with Ads (starting from March, date TBD)
– HBO Max Basic with Ads (launching in the UK & Ireland on March 26)
– Hayu (full access from July, with preview content available from March)
– Over 130 Sky channels
