Falcon and The Winter Soldier release schedule: what time does episode 1 air on Disney Plus?

Falcon and The Winter Soldier is almost here. Arriving hot on the heels of WandaVision, you might already be on auto-pilot and planning for the same release schedule. Not so. As swerving spoilers becomes even more important, it pays to plan ahead and not only get the full details behind the Falcon and Winter Soldier episode 1 release date, but also the change in air times in the US and UK.

With Daylight Savings in the mix, a large chunk of the audience will actually be able to watch the premiere slightly earlier than usual on Disney Plus. There are fewer episodes than you might expect too. Falcon also doesn't go down the Wanda route in releasing the first two episodes back to back. A lot to take in, then, and we’ll cover it all with our guide to the Falcon and The Winter Soldier release schedule – with a focus on the first episode’s dates and times.
