After nine and a half years, it’s time to say goodbye to Stranger Things. One of Netflix’s most successful TV originals of all time will bow out for the final time later this week, so you’ll desperately need to know when it premieres on the streaming titan.
So let’s not delay any longer – here are all the most important launch details you need to know about the Stranger Things 5 final. Oh, and because we won’t see each other until 2026 from now on: Happy New Year!
What time can I watch Stranger Things Season 5 Episode 8?
Titled “Right Side Up,” Stranger Things The eighth and final chapter of season 5 will debut on Netflix. Thursday December 31aka New Year’s Eve.
Well, in North and South America. Fans on other continents will have to log in to the world’s best streaming service a day later – January 1, 2026 – to watch it.
Indeed, like its seven predecessors, episode 8 of season 5 will be released on New Year’s Eve in the Americas. Given the time difference between them and Europe, Africa, Asia and Oceania, it will only arrive on New Year’s Day in other regions of the world.
