What time will Chicago Fire Season 14 premiere?

As mentioned, the season 14 premiere will be on October 1, 2025, at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time / 8:00 p.m. Central Time on NBC. After the broadcast, the episodes will be available to stream the following day on Peacock. Episodes will follow a weekly release schedule, airing every Wednesday. This makes the release date for episode 2 October 8, 2025.

The synopsis of episode 1, titled Kicking Down Doors, reads:

"A new face at Firehouse 51 causes tension, while rising chaos in the city brings new challenges to the team; Herrmann stalls on plans of relinquishing his office to Mouch."

This suggests fans will see some new members in the cast. Andrea, in the interview, also hinted at what the plot of season 14 could hold:

“What we want is the idea that parents who are first responders face, which is that the stakes go so high. You think they’re high now when you’re married to the person in a firehouse, what if you’re both trapped in a fire together and realizing you’re going to leave your child orphaned, essentially, which is what happened to Kidd when she was young. So it’s a big fear of hers,”

Some new faces joining the ensemble are Annabeth Gish as Annette Davis, the mayor's chief of staff, debuting in the premiere, and Brandon Larracuente in a new recurring role as Sal Vasquez.

The season will also see some departures, such as Daniel Kyri as Ritter, who will appear briefly to wrap up the character arc. Michael Bradway, as Jack Damon, will not return due to commitments to other projects.
