When is Sweet Magnolias Season 4 coming out?
Sweet Magnolias Season 4 will premiere on February 6, 2025. Previous seasons dropped in 2020, 2022, and 2023. The cast began filming the fourth season in February 2024 and wrapped in May.
When Season 4 production wrapped, JoAnna Garcia Swisher posted a heartfelt note about Sweet Magnolias. “I cannot wait for you all to see what we have been up to in Serenity,” she began. “It’s been a magical season…for reasons I cannot wait to share. I always get a little emo when we wrap. It’s bitter sweet. There is a huge sense of accomplishment for all the hard work, crazy hours, and time spent bringing this story to life. There is also an overwhelming sense of gratitude.”
She went on to say that Season 4 is “by far” her favorite season, and “not just for the OMG moments (there are many of them!) but because it was a joy to make. And, in many ways, it feels like we are just getting started.”
The official Sweet Magnolias Instagram page confirmed that filming had officially wrapped on June 1. “This season is filled with love, laughter, tears, thrills, and many, many margaritas,” the message read. “Congratulations to our writers, cast, crew, producers, executives, and everyone who touched this show. We can’t wait to pour it out with all of you!”

Showrunner Sheryl J. Anderson teased to Tudum that Season 4 will be “examining the twists and turns of romance, the complexity of friendship, the surprises that pop up in life, and how all these things make us more grateful for the people who love us, the people who fight for — and with — us, and the people who can make us laugh, whatever we’re going through.”
The friendship between Maddie, Dana Sue, and Helen was tested throughout Season 3. Anderson acknowledged that this trio is the “beating heart” of Sweet Magnolias, but they may face complications as they evolve. “True friendship is a living thing,” she said. “It has to change and grow as we do. And that’s not always easy. But that’s what makes it beautiful.”
“A lot happens in Season 4,” Swisher said in an interview with People. “Like jaw-dropping moments. It’s got all of the Sweet Magnolias things, but it’s just in a package of pedal to the metal. There’s not just one or two things that happen this season. And literally, the first half of the season.”
Is there a trailer?
Yes! Netflix dropped the official Season 4 trailer on January 23. The Magnolias toast to “new chapters” in the opening moments. Dana Sue really wants to plan Maddie and Cal’s wedding, but Maddie’s putting her foot down. “Feel free to plan a wedding, just not mine,” Maddie says.
Serenity will face challenging times in the season ahead. “Things are tough right now, and they’re going to get worse if we’re going to keep the eyes on,” Helen admits.
Meanwhile, Maddie and Cal will be facing new obstacles in their relationship. “This is new for me. I’m messing it up,” she says to her man. Bill’s mom also makes a surprise appearance.
