Netflix is making a bold statement about Virgin River’s future. With Season 7 still weeks away, the streamer has already finalized Season 8’s filming schedule, confirming the show’s long-term staying power.
Production will officially begin on April 22, 2026, wrapping on August 10, with filming once again taking place in British Columbia. The early timeline follows Season 8’s surprise renewal last summer, which came shortly after Season 7 finished filming.
Season 7’s delayed premiere — now set for March 12, 2026 — left fans waiting longer than usual, but Netflix appears determined to keep momentum moving forward. Although a 2026 double-drop seems unlikely, expectations are building for a Q1 2027 return.
For Virgin River, the future looks longer than ever.
