Have you ever thought about meeting your soulmate in the weirdest way? Love Is Blind: Habibi is returning for Season 2, and that means it’s your opportunity to be a part of the most bizarre dating experiment in the UAE!

Hot on the heels of the global success of Netflix’s Love Is Blind franchise, the UAE is set to introduce their own exciting twist, combining Arab culture, firm connections, and the delight of blind dating.

Aimed at singles serious about finding love without laying eyes on their partner first, this Arabic-language adaptation is hosted by celebrity couple Khaled Saqer and Elham Ali.

Think you’re ready? Here’s what you need to know about getting on Love Is Blind: Habibi!

What Is ‘Love Is Blind: Habibi’ About?

Like its international cousins, Love Is Blind: Habibi assembles 30 singles—15 men and 15 women—to participate in a unique dating experiment.

• Contestants build emotional bonds in sealed pods, where they can hear but not see one another.
• If sparks fly? They are even proposed to inside the pod—before they have met in real life!
• After being paired up, couples meet in person for the first time and travel to a luxury retreat at a private location.
• They will set up their home, see each other’s families, and get ready to wed.
• They’ll then face the final decision: say “I do” or leave.

Why it’s different: This UAE-based version is rooted in Arab family values, cultural traditions, and the role of faith in marriage. It’s a new spin on modern Middle Eastern dating!
