Married at First Sight Heads to New Orleans for Season 11

The 11th season of Married at First Sight, set in New Orleans, is slated to premiere on Lifetime next month.

Five new couples will take a leap of faith when they walk down the aisle to marry a complete stranger. All 17 episodes of the new season are two hours, capturing each couple’s emotional journey as they go from wedding to honeymoon to early nesting to the daily struggles of working on their marriage. After several weeks together, each couple must decide whether to stay together or divorce. Season 11 bows on July 15.

On July 8, the Married at First Sight Matchmaking Special will feature the show’s trio of experts—Dr. Viviana Coles, Dr. Pepper Schwartz and Pastor Cal Roberson—as they share their matchmaking process and pair the five couples. Afterward, Entertainment Tonight’s Kevin Frazier will host the Kickoff Special, as he and a group of panelists discuss all things MAFS, interview fan-favorite couples and begin the countdown to season 11.

Further, Lifetime has ordered more episodes of the self-shot, spin-off series Married at First Sight: Couples Cam.

Married at First Sight and Married at First Sight: Couples Cam are produced by Kinetic Content, a Red Arrow Studios company.
