It’s been a long wait; but finally, the seventh season of The Horizon will start airing on Hyvio on 7 October.
The most watched web series made this announcement firstly on their Facebook page. They later released the video onto their YouTube channel.
The fans have been waiting for this announcement since The Horizon was in jeopardy. One of their sponsors pulled out and they asked for public funding on their IndieGoGo fund page.
They started filming a few months ago whilst featured characters Wilma Bumhurt and Jake both took over The Horizon’s Facebook Live videos. They answered questions and took the viewers behind-the-scenes of the filming of the new seasons.
