It is time to dust off your berets and prepare for one last European getaway. Netflix has officially announced that Emily in Paris will end with its upcoming sixth season. The news arrives just as the cast and crew touch down in Greece to begin filming, signalling the beginning of the end for the streaming giant’s incredibly popular romantic comedy series.
For the past five seasons, audiences have followed Emily Cooper (played by Lily Collins) as she navigated the complicated worlds of French marketing, high fashion, and an endlessly chaotic love life. Now, it seems her European adventure is finally reaching its natural conclusion.
The Final European Tour Begins
The renewal for Season 6 was originally confirmed in January, following a highly discussed fifth season that saw Emily expanding her professional footprint. After successfully opening a Rome office for her marketing agency, Agence Grateau, Emily returned to Paris with a brand new romantic relationship in tow. However, the announcement that this upcoming run of episodes will be the last adds a definite sense of finality to her current situation.
Series creator and showrunner Darren Star addressed the show’s conclusion in a statement released on Thursday, expressing immense gratitude for the show’s run.
“Making Emily in Paris with this extraordinary cast and crew has been the trip of a lifetime,” Star shared. “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. 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.”
With filming currently underway in Greece, it is clear the creative team is taking Emily beyond the French borders once again. Given the show’s history of picturesque European backdrops, the Mediterranean seems like the perfect setting for whatever complications await her next.
A Proven Streaming Phenomenon
While critics have often debated the show’s merits, the viewership numbers speak entirely for themselves. Emily in Paris has been a monumental success for Netflix since it first premiered. Season 5 alone spent five consecutive weeks in the platform’s worldwide top 10 for English-language series. Looking at the broader picture, the series recorded a staggering 250 million views globally between 2023 and 2025.
Those numbers highlight exactly how invested audiences are in the ongoing drama between Emily, Gabriel, Mindy, Sylvie, and the rest of the ensemble cast. The show managed to capture a highly engaged viewing audienc, those looking for vibrant fashion, beautiful locations, and a reliable dose of relationship drama.
A Season of Farewells at Netflix
Interestingly, Emily in Paris is not the only high-profile series preparing to bow out. The announcement joins a growing list of popular Netflix shows that have recently confirmed their impending conclusions. The hit legal drama The Lincoln Lawyer is set to wrap up with its fifth season, while the political thriller The Night Agent will close its story with its fourth season.
It appears Netflix is currently structuring definitive endings for several of its established hits, allowing creators to craft proper finales rather than facing sudden cancellations. For fans of Emily Cooper, this means the writers have the opportunity to definitively tie up loose ends, resolve the lingering love triangles, and give the characters a proper send-off.
What to Expect from Season 6
Details surrounding the actual plot of Season 6 remain tightly under wraps, but the shift in location to Greece suggests that Emily’s new romantic endeavours might involve a major change of scenery.
Whatever happens, audiences can expect the signature blend of questionable outfit choices, workplace chaos, and stunning scenery that made the show a global talking point. Until Netflix announces an official release date, fans will simply have to wait and speculate on how the story will finally come to a close.
