If you’re asking when does Love Island episodes come out: Love Island U.K. season 13 premiered in the U.K. on Monday, June 1, at 9 p.m. BT on ITV2 and ITVX, and the first episode reached U.S. streaming platforms on Thursday, June 4, after a three-day delay.
The timing is specific. The U.K. premiere aired at 9 p.m. BT (1 p.m. PT, 4 p.m. ET), and U.S. viewers without a U.K. connection saw that episode on Hulu and Disney+ on June 4. After the opening, the series will release new installments six nights a week — Sunday through Friday — at the same hour in the U.K., with the U.S. availability following the established three-day lag.
Practical viewing matters: U.K. audiences can watch as the action unfolds live on ITV2 and ITVX. U.S. subscribers who want the same immediacy can use a VPN and connect to a U.K. server to access ITVX and see episodes as they air. Without a VPN, the streaming route is Hulu and Disney+, which posts episodes three days after the U.K. broadcast.
The schedule arrives amid a busy Love Island calendar: Love Island USA season eight premiered on Peacock on June 2, putting U.K. and U.S. versions in back-to-back release windows for viewers who follow both franchises. Season 13 itself relocates a new group of singles to Mallorca, with the show set to deliver content almost nightly across the week, except Saturdays.
The three-day gap is the season’s main friction point for international viewers. It means social timelines and live-reaction communities in the U.S. will trail the U.K. by 72 hours unless viewers use workarounds. For fans who prefer to avoid spoilers and participate in real-time conversation, a VPN is the only current way to match the U.K. broadcast schedule.
What to expect next: episodes will continue to appear six nights each week, Sunday through Friday, at the same U.K. hour; the first U.S. release establishes the streaming cadence of a three-day delay on Hulu and Disney+. If you need to map the schedule to U.S. time zones, remember 9 p.m. BT corresponds to 1 p.m. PT and 4 p.m. ET the same day in the U.K., with U.S. streaming dates trailing by three days.
Bottom line: the answer to when does Love Island episodes come out is twofold — in the U.K., new episodes arrive at 9 p.m. BT as Season 13 runs Sunday through Friday nights; in the U.S., those same episodes appear on Hulu and Disney+ three days later, with a VPN the only current option to watch live in sync with the U.K. broadcast. Whether the three-day streaming delay will change during the run has not been altered in this release schedule, so U.S. viewers should plan on the delayed availability for now.
