Love Island fans, consider this your official invitation to the villa.
If you've spent the past few weeks glued to Love Island USA, arguing about bombshells in the group chat and developing strong opinions about people you've never met, Peacock has a new way to keep the obsession going between episodes.
For three days this month, Rockefeller Center will transform into a real-life version of the show's famous Fiji villa with a free three-day fan experience called The Villa. The pop-up celebrates the current season of Love Island USA and promises plenty of opportunities for visitors to channel their inner Islander without actually having to couple up on national television.
The activation will take over Rockefeller Center Plaza daily from noon to 7 pm starting on June 22, bringing some of the show's most recognizable spaces to Midtown. Fans can pose at a recreation of the Villa's iconic Fire Pit, where much of the series' dramatic recoupling conversations unfold, and step inside a Glam Room inspired by the show's beauty-prep headquarters.
Of course, no Love Island experience would be complete without a little self-promotion and a lot of photo opportunities: visitors can recreate the famous "bombshell" entrance walk, take pictures in villa-inspired sets and make custom stickers to take home. Guests can also pick up personalized bag charms featuring relationship statuses like "Bombshell" and "Coupled Up."
Beauty brands CeraVe and Maybelline New York will also be on hand with freebies: at the Fire Pit, attendees can try their luck at a claw machine stocked with CeraVe products, while the Glam Room will feature Maybelline shade-matching stations and complimentary beauty giveaways.
The event is free, though reservations are encouraged. Visitors can register online for a timed entry slot and a standby line will also be available each day, subject to capacity—consider it your chance to enter the villa without risking a dramatic recoupling ceremony.
