- Season eight of Netflix’s “Love Is Blind” premieres on February 14, 2025.
- The new season will feature singles from Minneapolis.
- Three contestants — Alex, Brittany, and Joey — were revealed during the “LIB” season seven reunion.
Season seven of the Netflix dating show “Love Is Blind” featured singles from the Washington DC area who were trying to find love. But season eight will focus more on the heart — well, the heartland.
The franchise is moving to Minneapolis for its next season. The last time the show was in the Midwest was season two, which cast participants from the Chicago area.
Season eight is special for another reason — it will premiere on the fifth anniversary of the “Love Is Blind” franchise in February 2025. The franchise has been one of Netflix’s most successful reality ventures and, per the company’s own engagement data, has drawn in millions of viewers in 2023 and 2024. It’s spawned nine international editions in countries including Japan, Brazil, and the UK. Season eight also won’t be the franchise’s last: Netflix has renewed it through season 10.
Here’s everything we know about “Love Is Blind” season eight.
The ‘Love Is Blind’ season 8 premiere date and location have already been announced
“Love Is Blind” season eight will premiere on February 14, 2025, featuring singles from Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The season 8 teaser has one jaw-dropping moment
Netflix released a teaser trailer for season eight of “Love Is Blind” in January, focusing on the five-year anniversary of the franchise.
The trailer features moments from prior seasons, as well as a dramatic tease for Minneapolis.
“When the doors opened, that was not the first time that he saw me,” one of the season eight participants says in a voiceover.
Viewers already got a preview of the ‘Love Is Blind’ season 8 cast
Season eight will feature singles from the Minneapolis area. Presumably, that will also include folks from St. Paul — they are the twin cities, after all — as well as some of the numerous suburbs and towns in the Minneapolis radius.
For the first time ever, Netflix revealed some of the season eight cast members at the season seven reunion. Their names are Alex, Brittany, and Joey.
Alex said that he hadn’t prioritized dating in his life and Minneapolis is a “small community.”
“You kind of see the same people over and over, and it’s a small bar scene,” Alex said. “I just never found the right person that clicked for me, but I’m excited to be here.”
The rest of the cast will likely be announced closer to the show’s premiere.
