When Calls the Heart has been renewed for a 13th season. Meanwhile, the 12th season concluded on Sunday, March 23. But Hearties can’t get enough of the drama. They want more love, laughter, heart, and mystery from Hope Valley. They’re in luck. Hallmark just revealed when they could expect the new season.
WCTH Renewed For Season 13
Prior to the show’s finale, Hallmark Media renewed WCTH for Season 13. It’s no surprise, considering it’s one of the top shows on the Hallmark Channel. According to Deadline, the network announced the renewal during the show’s Season 12 finale. The network’s Senior Vice President of Programming, Samanta DiPippo, shared a message to the Hearties.
“Hearties are far more than a fan base — they are a connected community, as loyal and supportive as the characters of Hope Valley,” DiPippo told Deadline. “It is an honor to tell stories of hope, resilience, humor, and romance that continue to resonate with millions of viewers for twelve seasons and beyond.”

Premiere Date Revealed
So when is the beloved show coming back? That’s the question that’s been on the fans’ minds ever since the news came out. Both Hallmark and WCTH star Erin Krakow took to social media to tease the premiere date. Hallmark posted a clip of moments from Season 12 along with the caption, “Hey #Hearties, time to rejoice!!! When Calls the Heart will return for season 13! We’ll see you back in Hope Valley in 2026. 💜”
Meanwhile, Krakow shared a special message for Hearties. She wore a bright purple sweater, a beaded necklace, hoop earrings, and a green baseball cap, a departure from her demure character, Elizabeth. She excitedly shared, “Psst… I got news. When Calls the Heart is returning for Season 13, and we are so excited! We can’t wait to return to Hope Valley to tell more of the stories you love. We’ll see you on Hallmark.”
Sadly, WCTH Season 13 won’t return until 2026. Hearties on Hallmark’s Instagram post said they want the new season to premiere in January rather than April. What are your thoughts on this news? When should WCTH Season 13 premiere? Let us know in the comment section.
