Stock up on Eggos, dust off your trucker cap and remember how young you were when it all started because Stranger Things is back in a big way.

The fifth and final season of the Duffer brothers’ Netflix sensation is hitting the streaming in three spooky bursts from November 26 to January 1.

And, needless to say, there are big plans to mark the finale with events and pop-ups across London – and worldwide.

London is set to host two major Stranger Things season 5 events in December and November – here’s everything we know so far...

Exclusive UK Screening of Stranger Things 5 episode 1

In London, it’s all kicking off with an exclusive UK fan screening on November 13 at Odeon Luxe Leicester Square. A chance to catch the first episode a full 14 days before the rest of the world.

How to book tickets

Keep an eye out for info on tickets via Netflix UK’s Instagram feed, @NetflixUK. 

Will there be a red carpet? 

No word yet on whether the show’s stars will be there for the fan event, but previous Stranger Things launches have tended to come with a full complement of cast members. And, of course, the grand Odeon in Leicester Square is the home of starry West End premieres. So don’t rule out an appearance from Millie Bobby Brown and the gang, in other words.

Mystery season 5 fan activation

The plot thickens still further with news of a London ‘fan activation’ taking place in December. What could it be? A Turning the Outernet into the Upside Down? Details are sketchy so far 

Previous seasons have kicked off with all sorts of experiences, pop-ups and tie-ins (Demogorgon pizza, anyone?), but this one looks like another level of immersive.

Watch this space for more details, and, again, keep an eye on @NetflixUK on Insta.

When is Stranger Things Season 5 Released in the UK?

The final season hits Netflix in three parts, each launching at 1am GMT: volume 1 lands on November 27; volume 2 hits on December 26; and the finale arrives on January 1.

Watch the new trailer below.
