Open to the public, the activation will immerse guests in the world of Love Island through plenty of the flirtatious games and activities we all know and love. On your way in, grab a beaded bracelet labeled available, taken, just looking, summer fling, friend material and more to let others know your love status. Then hop on the champagne bottle mechanical bull or get glittered and bronzed by professional makeup artists prior to taking your new dating-app profile pic in front of the iconic Love Island portrait backdrop. The villa vibes will be immaculate thanks to a sandy beach moment complete with lounge seating, umbrellas and cabana staff offering cocktail refreshments and misters.
