Production and broadcast

At the 2013 San Diego Comic-Con, Nickelodeon confirmed that a seventh season was in production, with the premiere tentatively scheduled for fall 2014.[3] In a press release on April 7, 2014, Rainbow S.r.l. and Nickelodeon officially announced their continuing partnership on the seventh season of Winx Club, with the premiere now pushed back to 2015.[4] Iginio Straffi, the creator of the series, said of the season: "It will be a privilege to partner once more with Nickelodeon on this."[4]

The first episode aired on 22 June 2015, on Nickelodeon in Asia,[1] followed by its broadcast on 21 September 2015 on Rai Gulp in Italy. As a cost-cutting measure, the animated segments and California voice cast from the previous two seasons were not used in this season (during its production, Rainbow was undergoing a multimillion-euro financial loss).[5] Season 7 was animated entirely in 2D Flash animation, and Nick Jr. commissioned the cheaper New York facility DuArt to record the dub.[6] As with the previous two seasons, the copyright to Season 7 is co-owned by Rainbow and Viacom.[7]
