Continuing to blur the lines between streaming and linear, while also boosting traditional television with new content during the strikes, Disney has announced that it will be airing the Disney+ Original music special, “Miley Cyrus – Endless Summer Vacation (Backyard Sessions)” on ABC on Thursday 24th August 2023 at 10p|9c.

Miley Cyrus takes the stage in this must-see, music event, “Miley Cyrus – Endless Summer Vacation (Backyard Sessions).” For the first time ever, Miley performs songs from “Endless Summer Vacation,” including her hit single “Flowers,” seven additional tracks from the album, one of her chart-topping classic hits and a special performance with Rufus Wainwright.

The global superstar’s cinematic performances are threaded with exclusive interviews in the famed Los Angeles house where Frank Sinatra once lived and where Miley shot the celebrated official music video for “Flowers.” With this special, Miley, who also serves as executive producer, opens the door to audiences around the world, providing insight into her new album and the person she is today. The “Backyard Sessions” are a series that Miley began in 2012 for her fans. Viewers were quickly taken with the experience of watching Miley and her band perform in an intimate, outdoor setting, and the “Backyard Sessions” quickly became a benchmark series. “Miley Cyrus ‒ Endless Summer Vacation (Backyard Sessions)” serves as a continuation.

The special debuted on Disney+ globally back in March and tied in with the release of her album. You can stream the special now on Disney+, if you don’t want to wait to watch it on ABC.

This isn’t the first Disney+ Original to air on ABC. Only recently, “Ms Marvel” was broadcast on the linear network.  Disney has been doing this more often across all its linear networks to save money on original content for the linear channels and boost viewership to its streaming exclusive titles.
