Bachelor in Paradise format

The show's format is intriguing and keeps viewers hooked week after week. At the beginning of the season, an uneven number of men and women arrive at the paradise. During the first rose ceremony, men are given roses to offer to the women they'd like to spend more time with. The women without roses are sent home, making room for new arrivals. The following rose ceremony sees the roles reversed, with women giving roses to men, leading to more eliminations. This alternating dynamic continues for seven weeks, bringing fresh faces into the mix and testing the strength of emerging relationships.

The reality show brings together former contestants from the dating shows The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. The show is set in a tropical paradise, typically in Mexico, and offers these past participants a second chance at finding love and forming meaningful connections.

The show revolves around the idea of establishing an environment for the participants offering them chances to go on dates, spend quality time with each other and potentially develop relationships.
