Buena Vista Home Entertainment, Inc.[3] (doing business as Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment) was the home entertainment label and former distribution arm of the Walt Disney Company. It once handled the distribution of Disney's films, television series, and other audiovisual content across digital formats and platforms.
For 37 years, Buena Vista Home Entertainment handled autonomous distribution of those properties in several physical home media formats, such as VHSs, DVDs, Blu-ray discs, and 4K discs under various brand labels around the world. It was founded on February 13, 1987, as Buena Vista Home Video.[4] It was renamed to its current legal name in 1997,[3] although it is currently known in the UK as Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment (UK & Ireland) since 2013.[b] The division adopted the current Walt Disney Studios-branding in its public name in 2007, but kept the Buena Vista branding for corporate use.[5]
Since 2024, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment handles physical production and distribution for all film titles released by Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment in North America. The division continued to operate until April 14, 2026, when Disney laid off its entire staff.[6] It now currently exists as a label for its future releases.
