Several Miami bars are hosting "Love Island USA" watch parties to capitalize on the hype around the reality TV show.

How it works: Ten singles shack up on a villa in Fiji to explore deep connections, find love and compete for a $100K prize.

But, as new "bombshells" enter the villa, contestants may be tempted to recouple with someone new. Anyone left single risks being dumped from the island.

Context: New episodes of "Love Island USA" season 7 air nightly, except for Wednesdays, on Peacock at 9pm EST.

Season 7 premiered June 3. Most seasons run about six weeks.

Here are a few local spots hosting watch parties. 

The downtown cocktail bar is hosting weekly watch parties every Thursday at 9pm, screening the latest episodes on its indoor TVs and outdoor projector screen.

The Little Havana bar is hosting weekly watch parties every Thursday at 9pm. Free popcorn.

Sports & Social Dolphin Mall and PBR Miami are both hosting "Love Island" screenings, but check their social media pages for announced dates.

PBR is hosting a screening Friday, per its Instagram.

Sports & Social, which says it has a 50-foot "jumbotron" and 30+ personal flat screen TVs, is hosting its next screening Monday night.

Go deeper: Miami New Times has a more comprehensive list.
