The sixth season of Love Island Australia premiered on 9Now, 28 October 2024 presented by Sophie Monk and narrated by Eoghan McDermott.
Love Island Australia involves a group of contestants, known as "Islanders", living in a villa in Mallorca looking to find love. To remain in the competition, the Islanders must be coupled up with another Islander, as the winning couple wins $50,000. On the first day, the Islanders couple up for the first time based on first impressions. However, throughout the series they may choose to "re-couple" and couple up with another Islander instead. Islanders may join the villa at several stages throughout the season.
Islanders who are single after each re-coupling risk being eliminated and "dumped" from the island. Islanders can also be eliminated via public vote, or through other means such as deciding among themselves who to vote off the island. During the finale, the public vote for a couple they want to win the series and the $50,000 prize. One person from the winning couple can then either split the money with their partner or keep it for themselves.
The first Islanders were announced on social media on 9 October 2024. This season featured Love Island Gods, which were announced the same day, and were two contestants from previous seasons. The Gods were revealed to be Sydney Paight, who was the runner-up on the fourth series of the American version of the show, and Steph Blackos, who was a contestant on the second series of the French version of the show and spin-off Love Island Games. The Gods were given special powers where they could couple up with whoever they wanted, whenever they wanted without needed a recoupling ceremony. This season also featured Mercedes Knox, who previously won the second and third season of FBoy Island.
Sydney Paight competed on season two of Love Island Games.
Dylan Towolawi returned for season seven.
