The Disney Channel has now formally commissioned a fourth season of 'Austin & Ally' to air in the coming months.
The network's executive vice president Adam Bonnett announced the renewal.
"The strength of this series helped make 2013 Disney Channel's highest-rated year ever among tweens, an audience that is invested in the 'Austin & Ally' stories, and the fun they experience on a journey with the characters," he said.

"We're looking forward to delivering many more engaging stories soon."

'Austin & Ally' has won two Kids' Choice Awards and a Radio Disney Music Award since its premiere in December 2011 in the US.
Its third season is still in progress.
