The announcement was initially made live on stage at the London Palladium during the final night of Neighbours – The Celebration Tour, which has travelled up and down the UK in recent weeks.
Cast on stage for the special moment included Alan Fletcher, Jackie Woodburne, Stefan Dennis, Ryan Moloney and April Rose Pengilly – all of whom are reprising their roles for the Freevee comeback.

Executive producer Jason Herbison said: "It feels very real now. It’s a hive of activity at the studio. We’re busy writing the next chapter of Neighbours, bringing to life again the show’s much-loved characters as well as new residents.
"It’s exciting to see the sets being prepped, ready to start filming on Monday 17th April, which will be a huge day for everyone involved."
Brand new episodes of Neighbours are currently scheduled to arrive in autumn of this year, while a library of old episodes is already available on the free-to-use, ad-supported streaming service.
Neighbours will be exclusive to Amazon Freevee in the UK and the United States, while the return of the soap will arrive on Prime Video in Canada, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
