Excitement is building for the next chapter of Virgin River, as production for Season 7 has officially wrapped. Filming concluded in Vancouver in late June 2025, with an unexpected twist—additional scenes shot in Mexico, teasing a storyline expansion that fans are dying to decode. Now in post-production, Season 7 is shaping up to be the most emotional and adventurous season yet.
Filming Wraps in Vancouver
The core cast—Alexandra Breckenridge, Martin Henderson, Tim Matheson, and others—finished their primary scenes in the series’ iconic Canadian locations by June 20, 2025. Behind-the-scenes posts from crew members and subtle hints from the stars confirmed that production came to an official end after several months of shooting.
What’s With the Mexico Footage?
Shortly after filming wrapped in Canada, some of the cast and production crew were spotted shooting in Mexico. This sparked immediate speculation:
- Is it a honeymoon destination for Mel and Jack?
- Are we about to meet a new character with ties abroad?
- Could this tie into an international adoption plotline?
While Netflix has yet to confirm plot specifics, fans believe this new setting could symbolize a big transition or life milestone for one of the main characters.
Post-Production Timeline Suggests Late 2025 or Early 2026 Premiere
With filming wrapped, the show has entered post-production. Based on previous seasons, it typically takes 4–6 months before a release. That points to a late 2025 debut, though some outlets like What’s On Netflix suggest an early 2026 launch is more realistic.
Alexandra Breckenridge’s recent Instagram poll hinting at a 2025 release has only added fuel to fan theories that the show may return as early as November or December 2025.
What to Expect
Season 7 promises to pick up where the holiday episodes left off, with:
- Mel and Jack preparing for their growing family
- Hope’s continuing recovery
- Doc’s health taking a dramatic turn
- Preacher facing emotional crossroads
Throw in new locations and more backstory revelations, and you’ve got a season that aims to deepen everything fans love about Virgin River.
With production complete and the editing room now buzzing, Virgin River Season 7 is well on its way to our screens. Whether it drops in late 2025 or early 2026, one thing’s for sure: the drama, love, and heartache of Virgin River will return stronger than ever.
