‘Summer House Canada’ Set As NBCUniversal Streamer Hayu’s Second Original Reality Series

Following the success of The Real Housewives of London, Hayu has ordered Summer House Canada.

The announcement comes a day after Bravo’s Summer House earned its first Emmy nomination.

NBCUniversal’s streamer and Lark Productions have already begun production of the Canadian spinoff in Muskoka, Ontario, with the series premiering on Hayu in 2027.

“We’re thrilled to bring this adaptation of the standout Summer House format to the market – and Muskoka offers the perfect, iconic Canadian setting to introduce Summer House Canada and build on the franchise’s momentum,” said Hendrik McDermott, Managing Director, International DTC, NBCUniversal. “Following the success of Hayu’s first original commission – The Real Housewives of London – we’re delighted to bring another exclusive original series to Hayu subscribers in Canada and worldwide, expanding our market-leading reality content line-up with a fresh take on a fan-favourite franchise.”

Hayu recently wrapped filming for the second season of The Real Housewives of London, and Bravo also confirmed it will air the first season of the reality series starting in July.

The Summer House franchise follows a group of friends who share a house on summer weekends to escape city life. Known for its sprawling waterfront cottages and lively social scene, Muskoka sets the stage as relationships, careers, and personal lives collide.

Erin Haskett, President and Executive Producer, Lark Productions, said in a statement, “Summer House has become a beloved global franchise known for its authentic friendships, big personalities, and the unforgettable moments that come from spending a summer together. We’re excited to build on that by bringing the Canadian summer experience to fans worldwide.”

The Summer House franchise is distributed internationally by NBCUniversal Formats, a division of Universal Studio Group.
