With its vibrant colors and heartfelt narrative touching on themes of family, love, identity, culture and death, animated fantasy Coco (2017) is sure to be a family favorite in many households. If Coco is on the agenda for your next movie night, but you’re traveling and can’t access your usual streaming services, this guide explains how and where to watch Coco with a VPN.

For many around the world, streaming Coco is as simple as logging in to a popular streaming service (which shall be revealed further down) and putting your feet up. However, this gets more complicated if you travel to a country where that streaming service is unavailable due to regional restrictions

If you’re in this predicament, you can use a reputable VPN to access your streaming services as if those blocks don’t exist. Don’t worry if this is all new to you — we’ll show you how to use a VPN step by step. ExpressVPN is our top recommendation, but NordVPN and Surfshark are also great budget-friendly options.

Where to Watch Coco Movie

You can stream Coco on Disney Plus. If you prefer to watch it in Spanish, you can change your language on Disney Plus in the audio and subtitles settings. 

Disney Plus is available in many countries, including the U.S., the U.K., Canada, Australia and several countries in Europe, Africa and Asia. Unfortunately, it’s not available everywhere, including in Cyprus, Belarus, China, Russia, Bhutan, Sri Lanka and Ghana.

If you have an account but are traveling to a country where Disney Plus is unavailable, connecting to a VPN is the solution. You can also do this if Coco is missing from Disney Plus in your country.

If you want to sign up for Disney Plus from a location where it’s unavailable, there are a few extra steps involved. Disney Plus is payment-restricted, meaning your payment method (like a credit card) will only work if it’s linked to a country where Disney Plus is available. 

To get around this, you can get a prepaid virtual U.S. credit card like StatesCard. Our guide on how to pay for Disney Plus explains this more thoroughly. 

Which Streaming Services Have Coco?

Coco is only available to stream on Disney Plus (except for Hotstar in India), but if you don’t want to get a subscription, you can buy or rent Coco on various sites.

These include: 

  • Apple TV
  • Google Play Movies
  • Vudu
  • Microsoft Store
  • Amazon Prime Video 
  • YouTube 

Buy and rental platforms and availability can vary by country.

Is Coco on Netflix?

No, Disney Plus is Coco’s current home. However, if you’re interested in exploring more animated fantasy content on Netflix than is available in your country, you can get an IP address in another country by connecting to a VPN.

How to Access Other Netflix Libraries

Netflix’s content selection is vast, but rather than having the same content everywhere, the platform is split into different libraries. In every country Netflix is available in, there is a unique selection of content.

Some content, Netflix originals in particular, is a staple on the platform no matter where you are. On the other hand, some shows and movies are only available to stream in certain countries due to distribution rights. Fortunately, you can change your Netflix library with a VPN if you want to explore what’s on offer in other countries.

To do so, subscribe to and download a VPN, connect to a server in the country with the Netflix library you want to access and log in to Netflix as usual. For example, if you’d like to check out the vast American Netflix library but are outside the U.S., connect to a server in the U.S.

How to Watch Coco for Free

Unfortunately, Coco isn’t available for free anywhere, and Disney Plus doesn’t offer any free trials. That said, you might be able to get Disney Plus for free or on a free trial basis as a perk of some cellular plans in the U.S. Check out our guide on how to get a Disney Plus free trial for more information on this.

How to Watch Coco With a VPN

Here is a tutorial on how to access Disney Plus with a VPN in locations where the platform is unavailable. 

It’s illegal to use a VPN in a few countries, including in North Korea and Belarus, and VPN use is restricted in some countries, like China and Russia. 

Though it’s rare to hear about tourists getting in trouble for VPN use, there could be consequences if you’re caught with one on your device, especially in hostile locations. Research local laws thoroughly before you travel and check out our guide on where VPNs are illegal or restricted to learn more.

  1. Purchase a VPN Subscription

    Go to the website of a VPN with a solid security record (recommendations further down) and subscribe to a plan. You can benefit from a 30-day money-back guarantee with many reputable providers.

The Best VPNs for Watching Coco

For venturing to Coco’s richly colorful land of the dead from faraway lands in this world, we recommend VPNs with a solid track record of bypassing geoblocks. In addition, all of these providers have obfuscation, which masks VPN use. This is an important security feature, especially in restrictive locations.

1. ExpressVPN

ExpressVPN is a great choice for restrictive locations, thanks to
its easy-to-activate obfuscation technology. 

Pros:

  • Automatic obfuscation
  • Easy to use apps
  • Watertight security

Cons:

  • Expensive

If this is to be your first time using a VPN, ExpressVPN is the best choice because of its seamless user experience and beginner-friendliness. Even using extra security features like obfuscation is simple with ExpressVPN — all you need to do is enable the automatic protocol and obfuscation is applied by default on all servers.

We love ExpressVPN’s no-nonsense approach, commitment to security and its consistently strong performance with streaming services. On the other hand, we wish it were a little cheaper. Fortunately, ExpressVPN’s plans come with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you have a safety net if it’s not your cup of tea. Our ExpressVPN review explores the finer details.

2. NordVPN

NordVPN is a lightning-fast VPN and a cheaper alternative to ExpressVPN.

Pros:

  • Good desktop UI
  • Great global speeds
  • Cheap long-term plans

Cons:

  • Manual obfuscation switch

The synopsis accompanying Coco’s trailer talks of the “stunning and colorful Land of the Dead,” and these two adjectives could also be used to describe NordVPN’s sophisticated world map interface. NordVPN takes you to faraway lands with a single click on the world map, and its speeds are the best on average, even edging ahead of our top overall pick, ExpressVPN. 

On the flip side, using NordVPN’s extra features, like obfuscation, can be a bit less straightforward. It’s nothing too complicated, but you do have to enable obfuscation in “advanced settings,” and then select an obfuscated server from a list. 

Nevertheless, NordVPN is a secure, fast and inexpensive VPN (with a 30-day money-back guarantee) if you pick a long-term plan. Learn more about what we like with NordVPN in our full NordVPN review

3. Surfshark

surfshark open
Surfshark is a generous provider that offers a bunch of features at a low price.

Pros:

  • Great value for money
  • Unlimited connections 
  • Automatic obfuscation

Cons:

  • High latency in U.S. & U.K. 

Here at Cloudwards, we have a special place in our hearts for Surfshark because its long-term plans ask for little and offer a lot. Though the one-month plans are pricey (this is standard with VPN providers), the long-term plans cost only a few dollars per month, and you can choose from several of them. 

Like ExpressVPN, Surfshark obfuscates your traffic automatically. In Surfshark’s case, you just need to connect to OpenVPN for automatic obfuscation. In terms of cons, Surfshark’s latency is high on U.S. and U.K. servers, though its worldwide performance is good. Check out our Surfshark review, and try out the service for yourself with its 30-day money-back guarantee. 

Surfshark Starter
  • Unlimited GB bandwidth, Unlimited devices, Secure VPN, Ad blocker, Cookie pop-up blocker.
  • Unlimited GB
  • Unlimited
  • Yes

Coco Characters, Cast & Plot

Coco (2017), directed by Lee Unkrich and Adrian Molina, is the tale of Miguel, a young boy with a passion for music. Though he dreams of becoming a musician himself one day, Miguel’s family history forbids this: His great-great grandmother, Imelda, placed a lifelong ban on music in her family after her musician husband abandoned her, leaving her daughter Coco in her care. 

In spite of this, Miguel dreams on, and his guitar playing one day sends him on an extraordinary journey to the Land of the Dead, where he seeks out his great-great-grandfather, the accomplished musician Ernesto de la Cruz. Once there, Miguel finds out much more than he had bargained for. 

There have been rumors of a potential Coco 2, but nothing official has been announced as of yet. The main voice cast of Coco includes: 

Character Performer
Miguel Anthony Gonzalez
Hector Gael García Bernal
Ernesto de la Cruz Benjamin Bratt

Final Thoughts

Whether you can’t wait to find out the real story of Miguel’s family history or you loved the film so much the first time that you want to watch it again, a VPN can help you out if you’re having trouble accessing Disney Plus from your location.

ExpressVPN is our recommendation, but NordVPN and Surfshark are excellent alternatives that are easier on the wallet.
