Outlander fans can expect some snow this spring — and maybe a little ash, too. The show will return for its sixth season on Sunday, March 6, 2022 at 9/8c across all Starz platforms, TVLine has learned.
The news was announced on Monday by Outlander author Diana Gabaldon at a launch event for Go Tell the Bees that I Am Gone, the ninth book in the series. The show’s upcoming sixth season is based on the sixth book, A Breath of Snow and Ashes.
According to Starz, the show’s sixth season “sees a continuation of Claire and Jamie’s fight to protect those they love, as they navigate the trials and tribulations of life in colonial America. Establishing a home in the New World is by no means an easy task, particularly in the wild backcountry of North Carolina — and perhaps most significantly — during a period of dramatic political upheaval. The Frasers strive to maintain peace and flourish within a society which, as Claire knows all too well, is unwittingly marching towards Revolution. Against this backdrop, which heralds the birth of the new American nation, Claire and Jamie have built a home together at Fraser’s Ridge.”
Claire and Jamie “must now defend this home — established on land granted to them by the Crown — not only from external forces, but also from the increasing strife and conflict in the community within their care. For the Frasers and their immediate family, ‘home’ is more than simply a site in which they live, it is the place where they are laying the foundations for the rest of their lives. If Season 4 asked ‘What is home?’ and Season 5 asked, ‘What are you willing to do to protect your home?’ then Season 6 explores what happens when there is disharmony and division among the inhabitants of the home you’ve created — when you become an outsider, or an ‘outlander,’ so to speak, marginalized and rejected in your own home.”
And lest you think Claire and Jamie’s adventures are even close to nearing their end, Outlander has already been renewed for a seventh season.

Glad to have a premiere date. March is still a long way off but I’ve lasted this long.
Drought has gone on too long.
Season 6 is only 8 episodes, I think? That’s going to go by quickly after such a long wait ….
Es wird noch lange dauern in Germany. Aber ich freue mich schon riesig!!!
I can’t even explain how much I love outlander, how much this story does me good.
I can’t wait to see the sixth season. May it come quickly and leave in Portuguese in a hurry.
Amo essa série, assisti 5 vezes, os protagonistas são lindos no trabalho q fazem, e devem ser pessoas lindas ❤❤❤💋💋não vejo a hora de recomeçar a 6a e 7a temporadas, e q venham mais temporadas
A Breath of Snow and Ashes is my favorite book in the series, next to the first one! So happy to finally have a premiere date to look forward to! :D
Ich liebe diese Serie einfach und damit ich bis März gut durch halte, schaue ich sie mir in Dauerschleife an 😍😍. Muss einfach sein 😍😁
Die beste Serie überhaupt.
It is hard to wait to see Outlander on the TV again, but I bought the last book today and that helps me wait. Not seeing the Fraser family is like missing some of our own family. Hurry back please.
