The sixth series of Love Island began broadcasting on 12 January 2020 on ITV2. The series was announced on 24 July 2019 when it was confirmed that two series would air in 2020, and is also the first winter edition of the series.

The series is narrated by Iain Stirling.

A further tribute to Flack aired during the final on 23 February, which featured a compilation of her time throughout her five series as host
