When was Love Is Blind season 5 confirmed?

Great news, guys! Back in March 2022 when Netflix confirmed Love Is Blind season 4 was happening, they also announced a fifth season of the show. While they didn't share *too* many details, they did explain, "The hit series has also been renewed for seasons four and five, which will each feature new singles and new cities."

Season one of Love Is Blind was filmed in Atlanta, Georgia, While season two moved to Chicago, Illinois. Season three took place in Dallas, Texas, while season four (which is aired on Netflix in March and April 2023) was shot in Seattle, Washington.

And now Netflix has confirmed the newest season will see the show return to Texas, but this time it's Houston-based singles who will be searching for a chance of love.

What might happen in Love Is Blind season 5?

Fans of the hit Netflix dating show can assume it will be exactly the same as previous seasons, which sees 40 contestants join the show in an attempt to find their future partner. The experiment itself sees those contestants go on dates in blind 'pods', where they can hear and speak to their dates without actually seeing them.

The participants go on a series of speed dates, before ranking their dates in priority order, with the list of dates they go on then getting shorter but the length of the dates themselves getting longer.
