Stranger Things fans, this is it.
After nearly a decade in Hawkins, the series finale finally arrives on Wednesday, December 31, and Netflix is giving it a prime-time sendoff. The final episode of the series drops at 8 p.m. ET on New Year’s Eve, meaning you’ll be ringing in the new year with the Upside Down very much on your mind.
Netflix is once again skipping its usual midnight release in favor of an early evening global drop, just like it did with Volume II last week. The finale is launching simultaneously worldwide, so no one is getting it early, and no one has to dodge spoilers for hours on end.

Yes, and tickets are already on sale.
Select theaters in the U.S. and Canada began offering advance reservations for the series finale screenings in early December. Rather than traditional movie ticket pricing, many exhibitors are selling concession vouchers or seat reservations that often include food and drink credits to secure a spot for the event.
These special screenings are scheduled to begin at or after the 8 p.m. ET Netflix release on December 31, meaning the theatrical and streaming experiences are generally starting at the same time. Because of how these events are being handled, many fans booked seats quickly as soon as reservations opened.
In other words, whether you’re headed to a special event screening or watching at home, the finale experience will likely begin after 8 p.m. ET, aligned with Netflix’s global debut.

How Long Is the ‘Stranger Things’ Series Finale?
Netflix confirmed the runtime for the final episode:
Chapter Eight: The Rightside UpRuntime: 2 hours and 8 minutes
That means if you start watching right at 8 p.m. ET, you’ll be heading into the new year shortly after 10 p.m. This gives you just enough time to sit in stunned silence before midnight.
Hawkins has saved its longest goodbye for last.
