The show features a group of single contestants, known as "islanders" who live together in a specially constructed villa that is isolated from the outside world, in an attempt to find love. The islanders are continuously monitored during their stay in the house by live television cameras as well as personal audio microphones. Throughout the series, the contestants "couple up" to avoid being dumped from the villa. Additionally, the public will vote for their favourite islanders to stay in the villa at points in the series. As old islanders are dumped, new islanders enter the villa. At the end of the season, the public vote one final time to determine the winning couple.

International versions

On 11 September 2017, a German version of Love Island premiered on RTL II. An Australian version was commissioned by the Nine Network for its secondary channel 9Go! and internationally it airs on ITVBe and 3e with international streaming available on Hulu.[1] On 8 August 2018, CBS ordered an American version of the show.[2]

The Dutch-Flemish version was cancelled after one season in 2019, alongside Temptation Island and Free Love Paradise, as a result of a sexual assault scandal in one of RTL's other reality series De Villa.[3]

On 6 November 2020, South African TV Network M-Net ordered a South African version of the show.[4][5][6]
