How to watch Bono: Stories of Surrender online or on TV

Bono on stage in Apple TV Plus' Bono: Stories of Surrender.

Fans of the U2 rock star have something great to watch this weekend: Bono: Stories of Surrender airs on Friday, May 30 and we'll help you find a way to watch it.

Quick links

Stories of Surrender is a feature-length movie that's a hybrid of several different things. It premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in mid-May shortly before its home release.

In part it's a recording of Bono's confessional one-man show in which he describers his life story and shares anecdotes from his long career.

But it also combines elements of a musical performance with Bono performing U2 songs to a live stage.

If you're a U2 fan or just curious to see the film, here's how to watch Bono: Stories of Surrender at home.

To watch Bono: Stories of Surrender, you'll need to sign up for Apple TV Plus. The streamer is set to exclusively air the Bono documentary film.

A subscription to Apple TV Plus costs $9.99 / £8.99 per month though there are ways to save money on streaming, as we'll get to later in this article.
