From a media release:
HISTORY’s hit drama series Vikings returns for a gripping fourth season onThursday, February 18th at 10pm ET. The network has added four episodes to its initial 16 episode order and is rolling out an epic fan experience extending far beyond the new season.

Brand new this season is the innovative online destination, ‘Vikings: A World Revealed’, that takes fans on an interactive journey into the making of Vikings, guided by the stars of the show. Also new is Real Vikings, a four-part documentary series that draws on recent discoveries, leading experts, and the cast of Vikings to offer fans a compelling window into Viking civilization.

Leading up to the season four premiere, a Vikings season three marathon will air on Saturday, February 13th on HISTORY.
I love this show; it’s one of my favourites, number 3 on my list of currently running shows. I watch this show as soon as I can after it airs.
so when can we see season 4 on Shomi , thanks
Good question. Let me see if I can find out.
Season 3 of Vikings was available on shomi nine months after it aired on History, so expect that same timeline with Season 4.
The show is great and I’m really looking forward to Season 4 – unfortunately, the History Channel isn’t a very reliable source for actual historical information.
