- Netflix to hold free late-night screenings of Stranger Things season 1, episode 1 in London, UK on November 13
- Two evening screenings are planned, but fans will be selected at random.
- Spectators can request the ticket using the ApplauseStore ticket portal
If you live in or near London, there has never been a better time to be a stranger things fan. Netflix has revealed that it will hold an exclusive late-night screening of stranger things Episode 1 of season 5, titled ‘Chapter One: The Crawl’, on November 13, two weeks before its global debut.
However, it’s not as easy as just having fun on the day or fighting through a typical Ticketmaster-style queue. To be eligible, fans will need to enter ticket receipt through ApplauseStore using promo code ‘ST5FANS‘ even to be considered.
Fans will be selected randomly from the draw, so choose which screening you prefer and hope for the best. Unfortunately, the opportunity is only for those over 18 years of age.
My advice? First make sure you have created an ApplauseStore account (and activated it) before attempting to use the promo code. If you don’t, you’ll be delayed every time you try to put it on.
For everyone else, the Stranger Things season 5 release schedule is still in effect.
Look
There’s not-so-good news for the rest of us, or those who aren’t selected, who will have to wait for the original. stranger things Season 5 premiere date is November 26.
In case you forgot, the hit show’s three-part release schedule, here’s what you can expect over the next two months:
- Season 5 volume 1 – November 26/27; includes episodes 1 to 4
- Season 5 volume 2 – December 25/26; includes episodes 5 to 7
- Season 5 volume 3 – December 31, 2025 / January 1, 2026; only contains the ending
Each of these volumes will be released at 5 pm PST, so mark your calendars now.
But what to expect? As Netflix tells us, “The fall of 1987. Hawkins is marked by the opening of the rifts, and our heroes are united by a single goal: find and kill Vecna. But he has disappeared; his whereabouts and plans are unknown. To complicate their mission, the government has placed the city under military quarantine and intensified its search for Eleven, forcing her to go back into hiding.
“As the anniversary of Will’s disappearance approaches, so does a heavy, familiar fear. The final battle looms, and with it, a darkness more powerful and deadlier than anything they have faced before. To end this nightmare, they will need everyone, the entire group, to stand together, one last time.”
If you’re lucky enough to appear at the early screening, it’ll be worth it: Episode 1 alone is 68 minutes long.
