'Emily in Paris' Season 6: Everything We Know

Emily Cooper says arrivederci to Paris and buonjiorno to Rome in season 5 of Netflix's hit dramedy Emily in Paris. The 10-episode season hit the streamer in December 2025, picking up where season 4 left off—with Emily (Lily Collins) moving to Rome and seemingly leaving her will-they-won't-they relationship with Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) behind. But just because Emily in Paris moved beyond its title location doesn't mean the Netflix original is over.

After all, if the romance series doesn't end when Emily moved to Rome, it could survive anything. With that in mind, here's everything we know about Emily in Paris season 6.

Everything We Know About 'Emily in Paris' Season 6

Is 'Emily in Paris' renewed for season 6?

Oui oui! Emily in Paris has officially been renewed for season 6. The announcement came on January 5, 2026, just over two weeks after the series premiered its fifth installment in mid-December 2025.

Netflix revealed the renewal with a savvy clip on social media that looks like something our beloved marketing maven might've whipped up herself. The clip features star Lily Collins wearing a chic black-and-white striped dress and her hair styled in a micro bob, walking inside from a Parisian balcony, only for the frame to zoom out and reveal her image on an iPhone. She leans forward to blow out a candle, revealing the device to be on top of a "6" candle in a giant croissant. Appropriately, the pastry is plated on a table covered in flowers overlooking the Eiffel Tower.

It was only a matter of time before Emily in Paris season 6 was confirmed. According to a press release from Netflix, season 5 garnered 26.8 million views in just 11 days and debuted as the second most popular English-language series worldwide.

Popularity is always a good indication of whether the streamer will bring back one if it hits, but showrunner Darren Star had also previously teased his feelings that Emily’s story wasn’t over. "I hope Emily says yes to that invitation," he said to Deadline, referring to the finale cliffhanger in which Gabriel invited our heroine to Greece. "[Emily and Gabriel] reconnected in a nice way. [As for] where that takes them, I think it definitely hints at the idea that they’ll stay in each other’s lives."

Is season 6 the final season of 'Emily in Paris?'

Netflix and the cast and crew of Emily in Paris have confirmed they're saying "adieu" to the hit show with season 6. The forthcoming installment was announced as the final in late May 2026, as the show was in the middle of production.

Netflix shared a series of photos on Instagram of Collins and showrunner Darren Star on set in a very picturesque Greece(!). "Hello to the final season! 🇬🇷 One last Greek summer before Emily in Paris returns," reads the caption.

The Instagram post also includes a thoughtful letter from Star to the fans, including a cheeky Casablanca reference. He wrote, "Making Emily in Paris with this extraordinary cast and crew has been the trip of a lifetime. As we embark on the final season, I am so grateful to Netflix, Paramount, and, most importantly, the fans who have taken this incredible journey with us."

"We can’t wait to share this last chapter with you," the series creator continued. "Thank you for letting us be a part of your lives, inspiring your dreams of travel and your love of Paris. We will always have Emily in Paris!"

Collins, meanwhile, shared a video to say her goodbyes to the hit series. "After six unforgettable years of playing Emily Cooper, I’m here to share this upcoming sixth season will be our final," said the star, who is still rocking an adorable bixie cut and seen wearing a high-collared top.

She also hyped up the forthcoming episodes and stressed that the show will get its rightful conclusion. "Season 6 will bring you everything you love about the show and serve as the final chapter in Emily’s adventure of a lifetime," she said. "Our entire cast and crew are pouring our hearts into making this a fantastic farewell season, which we’re now filming. I can’t wait for all the magic ahead and to celebrate our final season with you in the most chic way yet! I’m so incredibly grateful, and we love you all."

When will 'Emily in Paris' return for season 6?

In late August, Netflix unveiled a series of first-look images of season 6 and confirmed the premiere date. It's bound to be a very merry Christmas, as all episodes are set to drop on Thursday, December 24.

Production on the comedy began in May 2026, with Variety reporting that filming was set to take place in Monaco and Greece. (Fans were excited to hear about the Greek location, given the season 5 cliffhanger.) In September, Collins confirmed production wrapped and shared a thoughtful Instagram post to bid adieu to the series. 

The star shared a photo of herself in a chair with “fin” on the back, as well as a shot of her posing with showrunner Darren Star. "I’m speechless. It’s impossible to find the words for what this journey has meant to me. For so many years, Emily has been a part of my life, and through every season, she’s continued to surprise me, inspire me, and challenge me,” Collins wrote.

"Thank you, Darren Star, for dreaming up this endlessly optimistic American girl in Paris who finds herself constantly outside of her comfort zone, learning to trust herself while leaning on others as she navigates her new life,” she continued. "I’m so grateful you trusted me to bring her to life. Thank you to our unparalleled crew, our writers, our directors, and of course our incredible cast who is now family and who I cannot imagine this without. You have made Emily, Emily. You made this world feel like home. And merci to all of you who have been supporting us over these past 7 years and 6 seasons, keeping us inspired to dream bigger along our epic adventure.”

The actress concluded by saying it feels “surreal and bittersweet” to say goodbye to the show, but reiterating how proud she was to be a part of it. "This has forever changed me. Au revoir, Emily Cooper…”

With the final season due out before the end of the year, it won’t be long before we say our farewells to Emily, too. (I’m not crying, you are!)

Which cast members will return for 'Emily in Paris' season 6?

Given all the romantic cliffhangers at the end of season 5 (more on that below!), fans can expect most of the main cast to return. Of course, you can't have Emily in Paris without the Emily, so Lily Collins would return, as would her fellow series regulars, including Ashley Park (Mindy), Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu (Sylvie), Lucas Bravo (Gabriel), Samuel Arnold (Julian), Bruno Gouery (Luc), Lucien Laviscount (Alfie), and Paul Forman (Nicolas). And, given Princess Jane's involvement at Agence Grateau, it's likely that Minnie Driver will be back to reprise her role as well.

The only cast member whose future with Emily in Paris isn't clear is Eugenio Franceschini, who plays Marcello. Now that Emily has officially returned to Paris as a single woman, there's no real reason for Marcello to be involved. Then again, you never know what might happen.

What will 'Emily in Paris' season 6 be about?

Fans can expect Emily in Paris season 6 to be all about love—especially after the major season 5 cliffhanger.

In the finale, “Veni, Vidi, Venezia,” Emily ended her relationship with Marcello after he announced that he would have to remain in Italy to take over his family's company. She returned to Agence Grateau alone, and Sylvie, the leader of #TeamGabriel, immediately texted Gabriel to let him know. The finale ended with Gabriel sending a postcard to Emily, inviting her to meet him in Greece!

While Star has hinted that Emily will accept her former flame's invitation, that's been confirmed by the show's plans to shoot in Greece. So, we can expect to see Gabriel and Emily enjoying a rendezvous on some gorgeous Greek islands and deciding what's next for their relationship.

While that definitely sends our hearts a-flutter, the showrunner has also implied that committing to happily ever after with one another may not be instant between the will-they-won’t-they couple. While speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, he said, “I don’t think it’ll be an instant relationship, though I do believe that people can find their way back to each other.”

Gabriel and Emily's relationship isn't the only one up in the air. Mindy ended season 5 engaged to Nico, but not even a diamond ring can stop her from having feelings for Alfie. If this new love triangle isn't enough to earn a season 6, we don't know what is.

Star himself has also teased that there may be more to come between Mindy and Alfie, despite her engagement. He told Deadline, “Anything’s possible, and I definitely feel like the two of them had a lot of chemistry, and it came out of left field for Mindy. It’s not the way she saw her life going.”

Finally, Agence Grateau is under new leadership. After Sylvie almost loses her company to bankruptcy, she's forced to accept an investment from Princess Jane, who will now act as co-head of the Agence. Expect many workplace hijinks to come.

More recently, Star has hyped up the show's final installment. In a statement to Tudum, he teased what fans can expect—which sounds delightful and like a proper send-off. "I wanted the final season to feel like the biggest Emily in Paris experience yet. We went to multiple locations this season, and Greece was somewhere we really wanted to showcase in a spectacular way," he said. "That’s part of the fantasy of Europe: You’re always within reach of another extraordinary place, another culture, another adventure. I wanted the audience to have that vicarious experience of traveling right along with Emily."
