Netflix Drops 'Stranger Things 5' Finale Screening Locations, So Get Your Tickets

The two-hour series finale of Stranger Things will screen in over 350 U.S. and Canadian theaters alongside its Netflix debut, marking a first for the franchise.

  • Netflix announced a same-day streaming-and-theatrical plan for the Stranger Things Season 5 finale, premiering December 31, 2025, in more than 350 theaters across the United States and Canada.
  • The Duffer Brothers said Netflix initially approached them about a theatrical event, and they long dreamed of a farewell as Volume 1 — Nov. 26 and Volume 2 — Dec. 25 — unfolded during the holiday rollout.
  • The finale runs two hours and five minutes, with showtimes at 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET from Dec. 31, 2025 through Jan. 1, 2026, and tickets go on sale Dec. 2 via theater outlets.
  • Fans can choose between streaming at home or attending a communal theater screening, while exhibitors will sell concession vouchers guaranteeing seats and keeping revenue.
  • Amid Netflix's long-standing reluctance to release films widely in theaters, this limited event stands out as Netflix will not recoup box office returns and the Duffers sign with Paramount next year.
