Sleeping Beauty was released on VHS and a two-disc Special Edition DVD on September 9, 2003, with the latter including both widescreen, formatted at 2.35:1, and full-screen versions of the film. Among the DVD supplements were a making-of featurette from the 1997 VHS, a documentary film Grand Canyon, a Life of Tchaikovsky segment of the Disneyland episode "The Peter Tchaikovsky Story", a 1951 story outline of the film, live-action reference clips, a virtual gallery of concept art, layout and background designs, three trailers, and an audio commentary of Mary Costa, Eyvind Earle, Ollie Johnston, and others. The release was discontinued on January 31, 2004.
On October 7, 2008, a Platinum Edition of Sleeping Beauty was released as a two-disc DVD and Blu-ray, making it the first installment in the Platinum line to be released in high-definition video. This release was based upon the 2007 restoration of the film from the original Technicolor negatives (interpositives several generations removed from the original negative were used for other home video releases) in its full negative aspect ratio of 2.55:1, which is wider than both prints shown at the film's original Technirama engagements in 2.20:1 and the CinemaScope-compatible reduction prints for general release at 2.35:1.
