A weekend with your friends is just what the doctor recommended, especially when you’re going through a rough patch. That’s the premise at the heart of The Five-Star Weekend, a heartwarming TV series available in the UK via Sky/NOW.
With an appealing cast and absorbing storylines, the show is the perfect summer watch. It received positive reviews from critics, and some fans are asking for more. Could a follow-up be on the horizon? Here’s what we know so far.
The Five-Star Weekend Season 2 Release Date
At the time of writing, there’s no news about a potential The Five-Star Weekend season 2.
The show premiered in early July and streams on Peacock in the US, so we might have to wait a while before we learn its fate. While the story could definitely continue, it’s inspired by a novel which doesn’t have a sequel. Still, you never know.
If the show returns, new episodes could arrive in 2027 or 2028.

What Is The Five-Star Weekend About?
The Five-Star Weekend follows food blogger Hollis Shaw, whose seemingly perfect life is shattered after her husband dies unexpectedly.
Hoping to heal, she invites four women from different chapters of her life to her Nantucket home for a relaxing weekend. She plans a gathering built around the idea that each guest represents a different stage of her journey.
What begins as a relaxing getaway soon turns into an emotional reckoning. Each woman is facing her own struggles, and hidden secrets come to light. As the group confronts the pasts, Hollis is forced to reevaluate the life she thought she knew.
By the time the first season wraps up, viewers get a sense of closure about each woman’s journey. That said, they could always reunite for another special trip to anchor The Five-Star Weekend season 2. We sure hope so.
