When is When Calls the Heart Season 12 Episode 12 out? Full release schedule
Strap in, Hearties! We’ve finally headed back to Hope Valley – andWhen Calls the Heart Season 12could still have some massive twists in store.
It’s a great time to be a fan of all things on the Hallmark Channel. Not only is When Calls the Heart coming back for more, but spinoff When Hope Calls will also debut its second season this month.
NowVirgin River Season 6has been and gone, the door is left wide open for more small-town drama to take the lead. New couple Elizabeth and Nathan are poised and ready… even if a major secret has come out about Elizabeth’s late husband, Jack.
WhileLucasexploring his own romance, new beginnings are on the horizon. But when is When Calls the Heart Season 12 Episode 12 out?
What time is When Calls the Heart Season 12 Episode 12 out?
Episode 12 of When Calls the Heart Season 12, titled ‘Must Be Gold’ will stream on the Hallmark Channel onMarch 23, 2025, at 9/8c.
Unlike most US TV shows that schedule releases to Eastern time (ET) or Pacific time (PT), When Calls the Heart goes by Central time (C). For those outside the US, “9/8c” basically means Season 12 Episode 1 will drop at 9pm Eastern and 8pm Central. This also means it’ll air at 6pm Pacific time.
However, this is all less brilliant news if you actually are based outside the US. Episode 1 drops at 2am on January 6 UK time, meaning 3am CET and 4am for those in Eastern Europe.
It’s slightly easier for other time zones, including Brazil (11pm) and India (7.30am).
There’s a slight catch to much of this information – it isn’t as straightforward as it seems tostream When Calls the Heart outside of the US.

How many episodes are there?
While not all episodes have officially been confirmed as of writing, we can make the logical assumption that there will be12 episodesoverall.
You only have to look back over Seasons 8-11 to see thebinge-worthy TV showhas fallen into a pattern of dropping 12 episodes at a time.
The seasonal breakdown of episodes looks something like this:
Given the show’s wobbly consistency with delivering a similar amount of episodes season after season, another 12-episode run can’t exactly be guaranteed. However, it looks likely thanks to zero deviation since Season 8.
It’s worth remembering that the numbers above are all without factoring in the various specials that slot in between seasons. Don’t worry though – you don’t need to have watched them for things to make sense.
When Calls the Heart Season 12 release schedule
The confirmed release schedule looks like this:
What you should expect in Season 12
Season 12 still needs to answer four key questions –whether the retrieval of Jack’s medal will break Elizabeth and Nathan up, whether Elizabeth and Nathan get engaged, where Jeanette has gone, and what’s next for Lucas.
At the end of Season 11, Nathan’s superior officer, Andrew Hargraves, turns up at Mike and Mei’s wedding – which is also where Elizabeth and Nathan made their public debut as a couple.
Nathan assumes that Hargraves wants a word with him, but he’s actually come for Elizabeth. We hear him say, “Mrs. Thornton, it’s about your late husband,” just before the series comes to an end.
It was revealed in Season 12 Episode 1 Jack’s Commissioning medal was found in excavated rubble, sparking some unnecessary friction between Elizabeth and Nathan.
As for Lucas, the tide appears to be turning thanks to new character Edie. Speaking to Good Housekeeping, star Chris McNallyhinteda “spark of chemistry” could be about to change everything.
“Well, there is one of the new characters that’s coming to town who represents a fairly strong opposition to Lucas, and I think within that is a spark of chemistry, and we will see where that goes,” he explained.
“I’m not sure yet, but I also don’t want to spoil anything, but I think fans will be excited to meet this new individual and get to know them and follow that journey.”
