Take a picturesque setting with mountains, add in a cast of attractive characters, and throw them into beautiful romantic situations, and you will have a recipe that viewers love.
With the majority of Virgin River’s seasons being certified fresh, it’s no wonder that fans can’t get enough of this drama!
Based on Robyn Carr’s novel series of the same name, Virgin River was the first of the author’s works to be adapted for TV, followed by the Canadian drama Sullivan’s Crossing.
The show definitely benefited from having source material from which to draw stories and inspiration for this beloved series.
Now, let’s take things home to where the heart is by breaking down everything we know so far about Virgin River Season 6!

Fans of the series are likely aware by now, but for good measure, we’re going to go ahead and let you all know that the series has indeed been renewed for season 6!
The show got the green light in May 2023, just before the fifth season’s premiere.
Since its second season, Virgin River has done well in obtaining early renewals, with filming sometimes having already taken place.
Netflix’s own head of scripted dramas told Deadline, “You can rest assured that there will be more Virgin River.”
That’s a hefty dose of hope for fans of the series since it doesn’t look like this beloved show is going anywhere!
Virgin River follows Melinda “Mel” Monroe, who answers an ad to work as a midwife and nurse practitioner in the remote Northern California town of Virgin River.
Though she thinks it will be the perfect place to start fresh and leave her painful memories behind, Mel soon discovers that small-town living is not quite as simple as she expected.
After the tumultuous cliffhanger ending of Virgin River’s holiday episodes, audiences are likely frothing at the mouth over what important thing Mel’s dad, Everett, had to tell her.
Thanks to a Glamour interview with executive producer and showrunner Patrick Sean Smith, there are a few plot points we can look forward to.
To name just a few, we know that Ava will return, there will be some resolution for Preacher and Kaia, and there will be more insight into Cameron and Muriel’s relationship.
There’s certainly plenty for audiences to look forward to when Virgin River returns for its sixth season!

Virgin River is one of the rare shows that has stayed consistent with its episode count despite its long-standing run.
We can confirm that Virgin River Season 6 will have ten episodes, thanks to an interview with series writer Ildiko Susany.
This news may be a bummer for some viewers since both Season 4 and Season 5 had a total of twelve episodes.
However, that means the show will have to condense storylines into a nice compact plot for viewers to enjoy.
It is certainly not uncommon for Netflix shows to receive extra episodes, often in the form of holiday specials!
This upcoming season of Virgin River will be packed to the gills with new and returning characters!

Are we done yet? I don’t think so because as of May 2024, four more new faces are set to make their debuts in the next season.
Gigi Neil (That Reminds Me…), Erin Kathleen Boyes (The Man in the High Castle), Rachel Drance (The Hardy Boys), and Ese Atawo (Supergirl).
Currently, there is no official trailer for Virgin River Season 6.
This is primarily because the show is in production, and fans likely won’t see a trailer until closer to the end of the year.

There is no official premiere date set for Virgin River Season 6, but it has been noted that the series was not included in Netflix’s roster for the new and returning shows of 2024.
Filming for the show began in February 2024, with expectations of concluding in May 2024 and post-production spanning the rest of the year.
At the moment, it’s speculated that the series will return in early 2025 as part of Netflix’s midseason releases.
