With as many questions as Carnival Row's season 1 finale raised, the most prominent one remains, "How long will I have to wait to get back to the Burgue for season 2?" Unfortunately, we don't rightly know when season 2 of Carnival Row will arrive, because no official announcement has yet been made.
Of course, this is to be expected, as the first season premiered relatively recently. That being said, we can confirm via some killer behind-the-scenes video straight from the official Carnival Row Twitter page that not only is season 2 happening, it's already begun production. So, the good news for fans is that Amazon is wasting no time in bringing you more of the show's off-kilter magical madness.
That good news does, however, come with a bit of bad in that Carnival Row is a big time production packed full of intricately costumed extras, complex digital effects, and all manner of special make-up accouterments. While all of those elements add to the world-building fun, they also tend to make for an extended production period — which means even though Amazon fast-tracked season 2 of Carnival Row, there's probably still quite a wait ahead to actually see new episodes.
It's probable that production on the second season will extend into early-to-mid 2020, and that means much of the coming year will find said season in post-production mode. Unfortunately, given that timeline, we'd be absolutely shocked if premiere day arrived in a similar summertime slot as season 1; it's far more likely that Amazon will hold Carnival Row's season 2 release until late 2020, or possibly even early 2021.
