2019 Mexico breakup

On December 26, 2019, Disney and its Mexican partner, Grupo ACIR, announced they were mutually ending their relationship, which had covered twelve Mexican cities.[2] Ten of the twelve Radio Disney stations were transitioned to ACIR's replacement pop format, Match.[3]

However, Radio Disney stated in a press release that it would return on new stations in 2020. One article attributed the breakup to "three direct format competitors and an impressive surge in Spotify consumption in key market Mexico City.".[4] Radio Disney returned to the country on February 1, 2020, exclusively on Mexico City station XHFO-FM.
