After over three years of waiting, we are being returned to the grungy setting of Carnival row and we confirm the release date, reveal the episode count of season 2, and provide a release schedule.

Season 1 of the series arrived on Amazon back in August 2019 and was later renewed for a second and final season, with production on the sophomore run halting several times due to the pandemic and the birth of Orlando Bloom’s child.

Created by René Echevarria and Travis Beacham for Amazon and based on Beacham’s speculative screenplay, The Killing on Carnival Row, the neo-noir fantasy series, Carnival Row, is set in the titular location inhabited by mythical creatures and plagued with crime, starring Bloom, Cara Delevingne, Simon McBurney, David Gyasi, and more.

Carnival Row season 2 is scheduled to release on Friday, February 17, 2023, on Amazon Prime.

Writers involved in season 2 include Marc Guggenheim, Sarah Byrd, Wesley Strick, Tania Lotia, Dylan Gallagher, and Mateja Boži?evi?.

The official synopsis for season 2 reads:

“In a fantasy world where humans and creatures clash, season 2 of Carnival Row picks up with former inspector Rycroft Philostrate (AKA Philo) investigating a series of gruesome murders stoking social tension. Vignette Stonemoss and the Black Raven plot payback for the unjust oppression inflicted by The Burgue’s human leaders, Jonah Breakspear and Sophie Longerbane. Tourmaline inherits supernatural powers that threaten her fate and the future of The Row. And, after escaping The Burgue and her vengeful brother Ezra, Imogen Spurnrose and her partner Agreus Astrayon encounter a radical new society which upends their plans.
