Stranger Things season five is almost here - but when exactly can you watch the new episodes 👀📺
- Stranger Things is about to start its final season.
- The first set of episodes are arriving this week.
- But when exactly can you tune in?
The final season of Stranger Things is set to begin in just a matter of hours. Netflix is preparing to drop the first batch of episodes in the show’s last hurrah.
Nearly a decade after it first took the world by storm, the 1980s-set science-fiction series is set to come to an end. However, unlike the early seasons it will not all be released at once.
Split across three volumes, the fifth series of Stranger Things is set to begin in just a matter of hours. However, the exact time will depend on where you live in the world.
When is Stranger Things season 5 released?
The show will split its final run of eight episodes out across three different release dates. It all begins this week and will wrap up on New Year’s Eve in America and New Year’s Day 2026 in the UK.
The release dates for series five are as follows:
- Volume 1 - November 26 (US)/ November 27 (UK) - episodes 1 - 4
- Volume 2 - December 25 (US)/ December 26 (UK) - episodes 5 - 7
- Finale - December 31 (US)/ January 1 (UK) - episode 8
It means that while the first set of episodes is almost upon us, fans will still have to wait to see how it all ends. Let me know your predictions for the final season by email: [email protected].
What time does Stranger Things season 5 part 1 come out?
Unlike its regular release time, Netflix has changed things up for the final season of Stranger Things. Normally, new shows and movies release at 8am British time, but that is not the case for the conclusion to the blockbuster streaming show.
All three parts will come out at 8pm ET/ 5pm PT in America, landing at prime viewing hours on Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Eve. Due to the difference in time zones, episodes will be released in the early hours of the next day in the UK.
Stranger Things season five part one will be available from 1am British time on Thursday (November 27). It means that the first four episodes will be waiting for you when you wake up.
Although, you may need to avoid spoilers on social media!
The episode lengths for the first part of Stranger Things season five have been revealed. It includes one of the shortest episodes in a while.
