Series 23

Series 23 of Shopkins will begin airing in September in the UK and 18 May 2019 in the US.

Production
Mattel has green-lit a new series and several specials for Shopkins that will premiere in 2019. Production has begun on the 23rd series that will consist of 20 x 11-minute episodes as well as three 22-minute specials following the recent revamp of the series.

The series is once again, split into two halves: one half with Cheeky Chocolate travelling around the world, and one half taking place in Shopville. Along with more episodes set in the previously visited China, India and Australia, Cheeky Chocolate will also visit two new countries, Italy and Brazil.
