Sky Vegas has strengthened its partnership with The Fortune Hotel, through an exclusive branded slot game in collaboration with Banijay Rights, and companion podcast sponsorship.
The collaboration follows the show’s successful debut in 2024, as it returns promising high stakes drama.
It sees 11 pairs of contestants take on strategic challenges and dramatic twists, all in pursuit of a briefcase containing a £250,000 prize. But paradise has a twist – one unlucky couple will be eliminated each episode, thanks to the show’s infamous “Early Checkout” briefcase.
The second series airs this August, with episodes broadcast every Wednesday and Thursday with eight episodes in total.
Commenting on the sponsorship, a Sky Vegas spokesperson said: “We’re excited to return for a second year with The Fortune Hotel. The show’s mix of sunshine, strategy and suspense really resonated with viewers, and this new series promises even more twists and turns.
“With our expanded partnership – including the Late Checkout podcast and our new slot game – we’re bringing fans closer than ever to the action.”
The renewed sponsorship will see Sky Vegas land 80 seconds of broadcast and digital recognition per episode, including 10-second branded bumpers around free streaming content on ITVX and STV Player.
This year’s partnership expands further, with Sky Vegas also sponsoring Late Checkout – the official Fortune Hotel companion podcast hosted by Ellie Taylor, which will also air as a vodcast on ITVX.
The podcast will drop in sync with each episode and offer behind-the-scenes content, contestant interviews, and exclusive moments not seen on TV.In an exciting addition, Sky Vegas has teamed up with Banijay Rights, the global distribution arm of content powerhouse Banijay Entertainment, to launch a brand-new Fortune Hotel themed slot game. The exclusive title lets players immerse themselves in the suspense and excitement of the show.
