SUMMER is here – which means Love Island is back on our screens!
If you’re planning your travels outside the UK, you don’t have to miss a moment of the action. Here’s how you can watch Love Island 2024 from abroad.
Things have already been heating up in the Love Island villa, as the 2024 season is in full swing, with new additions and secret rendezvous.
From Harriett breaking down in tears after Ciaran took Nicole to the Hideaway to shock new addition Jammeh kissing all six boys, you know there’s lots more drama to come.
Head to our live Love Island blog to find out more about the cast and all the latest developments.
But if you want to watch Love Island overseas? There’s a problem: streaming ITVX from outside the UK is blocked.
Fortunately, there’s a simple solution. You can use a VPN, such as ExpressVPN or NordVPN, to stream ITV shows like Love Island from overseas.
VPNs are online tools that can simulate a UK-based IP address, allowing you to bypass content restrictions.
Read on to learn how to use a VPN to access ITVX abroad.
When does Love Island 2024 start?
The launch show kicked off on Monday, June 3rd, and airs Sunday to Friday at 9 PM. You can catch all the action on ITV1 and ITV2, or stream it on ITVX.
The companion panel show, Love Island: Aftersun will also be back, airing every Sunday at 10 PM.
Also fronted by Maya Jama, the panel will feature returning favourites, Sam Thompson and Indiyah Polack, alongside new additions Amy Hart, Chris Taylor, and Jordan Stephens.
How to watch Love Island 2024 abroad with a VPN
The whole process for watching Love Island 2024 while you’re outside the UK is actually pretty simple.
Firstly, download a VPN like ExpressVPN or NordVPN to whatever device you use to stream content.
Then load the VPN app on that device, and select a UK server.
After that, just head to ITVX, and search for Love Island. Play, sit back, and enjoy!
ITVX is where you can catch up on episodes that are already live. You can also use a VPN to watch Love Island live on ITV2, but remember: you need to have a TV license to watch any live UK television from overseas.
