The much-anticipated Stranger Things Day 2024 is right around the corner, and fans are eager to find out if they will get new updates for season 5. This year, a lot of new content regarding the final season is expected to be released on this special day.

Stranger Things Day is celebrated worldwide by series fans, and Netflix also joins the party every year. But what is the history behind this day and when will it be celebrated this year? Let’s find out.

When is Stranger Things Day 2024?

Just like every year, Stranger Things Day will be celebrated on November 6. This year, November 6 falls on a Wednesday—making it the perfect midweek tribute for fans.

It marks the anniversary of the day when Will Byers went missing in 1983. In the opening episode of Stranger Things Season 1, Will Byers was taken to the Upside Down by the demogorgon. This marked the beginning of a chain of events that shaped the story of Stranger Things. Hence it is celebrated as Stranger Things Day all over the world.

This year would be very special as it could be the last Stranger Things Day before season 5 release. Thus it is expected to be the biggest event in Stranger Things history.

What to expect from Stranger Things Day 2024?

Netflix releases brand-new content each year for Stranger Things fans. The event was first announced by Netflix in 2018 when they released the trailer for season 3. In 2020, a teaser and episode titles for season 4 were shared.

Last year, Netflix released behind-the-scenes photos and new merchandise. The highlight of the event was the reveal of the opening scene for season 5. Still, fans were left a bit underwhelmed, as they hoped for more substantial updates. The limited content was largely due to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes.

This year will be different as the filming for season 5 kicked off in January 2024 and is now in full swing. Thus fans are expecting exciting updates for the final season.

Stranger Things Season 5 Teaser

So far, Netflix has not released any teaser/trailer for season 5 as they have only shared some behind-the-scenes videos from the sets. This is quite unusual as the makers always release promos to keep the fans engaged. They can now use this opportunity to release a brand new teaser.

Stranger Things 5 has already been filmed for 10 months so they can use some of this footage in the promo.

Stranger Things Season 5 Release Date

We are very close to the conclusion of season 5 filming but we still don’t have the exact release date. Though Netflix CEO has said that Stranger Things 5 will be released in 2025.

Stranger Things 5 will wrap up filming at the end of 2024 and then there will be post-production work. Still, it is a possibility that they will release Volume 1 of Season 5 next year. Netflix can announce the release date by sharing a short teaser on Stranger Things Day.

Stranger Things Season 5 Episode Titles

We know that the first episode of season 5 is titled “The Crawl” but the titles for the rest of the episodes are still unknown. There is a high possibility that Netflix will release the episode titles on Stranger Things Day.

All the episode titles for season 5 were leaked on the internet earlier but it is still not official. It is likely though the leaked titles will be confirmed officially on November 6.

Stranger Things: The First Shadow on Netflix

Last year, Stranger Things play premiered in London’s West End. Now it’s heading to Broadway with an opening set for March 2025. However, fans outside the US and UK are disappointed as they are unable to watch this.

Stranger Things: The First Shadow is crucial to the story and even dropped hints for the final season. With Stranger Things Day approaching, it would be an ideal time for Netflix to announce a filmed version of the play.
