Winx Club is an animated series co-produced by Rainbow SpA and later Nickelodeon. Its characters were created and designed by comic artist Iginio Straffi. The show takes place in a magical dimension where a group of fairy warriors defends their universe from villains. The group, named the Winx Club, attends the Alfea College for Fairies.

The Winx Club is led by Bloom, a student from Earth who thought she was an average human until discovering her flame-based powers. The original group includes Stella, the Fairy of the Sun and Moon (later) Fairy of the Shining Sun; Flora, the Fairy of Nature; Musa, the Fairy of Music; and Tecna, the Fairy of Technology. They share an apartment on the campus of Alfea. The Fairy of Waves, Aisha, is introduced in the second season and becomes the group's sixth member. The Fairy of Animals, Roxy, is introduced in the fourth season and occasionally joins the other fairies.

The characters of Winx Club have become popular with audiences. Critical response to the characters has been positive, with praise for their positive relationships and presentation of gender roles. The characters have appeared in a variety of media, including the spin-off series World of Winx, a comic book serial, and video games. In 2012, new episodes of the series incorporated CGI-animated sequences that rendered the characters in 3D.[1] A live-action series inspired by Winx Club, Fate: The Winx Saga, debuted in 2021 and features some of the original characters.

In the original series (seasons 1–4), the characters' mouths were animated to match the Italian voice actors,[2] who recorded their lines in Rome. The revived series, beginning with the hour-long specials, was produced in English first. The specials and seasons 5–6 were animated to match the Hollywood-based cast,[2] who recorded their lines at the Atlas Oceanic studio. Season 7 was also matched to Nickelodeon and Rainbow's English scripts,[3] but due to budget cuts, Viacom relocated the voice cast from Hollywood to New York City. Only actors from the two original casts are listed below.
