Here’s everything you need to know about Hot Mess Summer, including its plot, host, release date and more.
When is Hot Mess Summer released?

Is there a trailer for Hot Mess Summer?
The first trailer for Hot Mess Summer teased an island paradise that looks every bit the perfect spot for anyone who loves to party.
It then introduced us to some fresh young faces who enjoy nothing more than getting wasted and having a good time - something they believed was on the cards for them when they signed up to be part of the particular show.
Only they were sadly mistaken... Find out how they reacted to their new reality by hitting play below.
Who is hosting Hot Mess Summer?
Hot Mess Summer is hosted by Rylan Clark, the 35-year-old presenter and DJ who shot to fame following a stint on The X Factor in 2012.
Rylan will guide each of Hot Mess Summer’s eight contestants through their own personal journeys from red-hot liability to respectable adult, dishing out cash prizes for those who successfully make the transition without having a very public meltdown.
What is Hot Mess Summer about?
Hot Mess Summer is a reality show with a secret. In it, eight nightlife and booze-obsessed twentysomethings have been nominated by their nearest and dearest to take part in what they believe to be a new reality show focusing on their antics on the party island of Zante.
Only it isn’t. Instead, the group have been sent to a sort of anti-partying boot camp where they’ll be required to run one of Zante’s biggest and most popular pool bars instead of soaking up sunshine and booze from the safety of a sun lounger.
They’ll have to work together, dish out drinks to holidaying customers and even clean the toilets to successfully transform themselves from ‘Hot Mess’ youths to respectable adults under the watchful eye of strict bar manager Lee.
If they succeed, Rylan will reward them with cash prizes, with a total of £60,000 up for grabs. However, judging by the show’s first trailer, not all of Hot Mess Summer’s players are ready to put their partying ways behind them.
Hot Mess Summer will be available on Prime Video from Wednesday, 7 February 2024.
