Netflix is wasting no time when it comes to Virgin River. Even before Season 7 premieres, the streamer has quietly set official production dates for Season 8, confirming just how confident it is in the long-running drama.
Filming is scheduled to begin on April 22, 2026, and will continue through August 10, 2026, totaling around 110 shooting days. The series will once again return to its familiar filming locations in British Columbia, including Squamish and Vancouver.
Season 8’s early greenlight came shortly after Season 7 wrapped filming last summer, catching many fans off guard. With Season 7 arriving on March 12, 2026, the rapid turnaround raises one big question: could Netflix release two seasons in the same year? While technically possible, industry expectations still point toward early 2027 for Season 8’s debut.
