RIVERDALE fans, we have bittersweet news: the next season of the cult TV show will also be the last.
Read on to find out how to watch Season 7 of Riverdale for free online – and before it hits Netflix, too.
Since it first hit TV screens back in 2017, Riverdale has gathered an ever-growing cult following with its campy blend of teen romance, pulp, horror and the supernatural.
At the end of Season 6, we saw Riverdale narrowly miss destruction by a falling comet – only for Archie, Betty, Veronica, Jughead to be then transported back to the 1950s.
As sad as we are to to bid adieu to The Town With Pep, we honestly can’t wait for the action to start up again.
The latest season of the hit show will be moving to Netflix in the coming months – but before that, you’ll be able to stream the whole of Season 7 of Riverdale for free on the The CW from Thursday 30 March 2023.
But you’re streaming from outside the U.S., you’ll find there’s an issue with access The CW: it’s geo-restricted, and its content is blocked outside the States.
The easiest way to dodge this issue is by downloading a reliable VPN – we’ll talk you through how to do this in the following section.

VPNs have boomed in popularity in recent years, as by routing your internet activity through a server based in another country, they will grant you access to streaming content that’s unavailable in your region.
To stream the hit show via The CW, follow these simple steps:
- Download a VPN such as ExpressVPN or NordVPN to your streaming device.
- Load the VPN, and select a U.S.-based server.
- On the same device, head to the CW website or download the CW app.
- Search for Riverdale, then sit back and enjoy the show’s epic finale season!
Using a VPN to access geo-restricted content in this way isn’t something the streaming platforms like, but is completely legal.
However, there’s one thing we always remind our readers: if you’re watching any live UK TV abroad (not just BBC content), you need to have a UK TV license.
