Yes. HBO renewed The White Lotus for Season 4 and announced that filming had begun in France. The new season is set during the Cannes Film Festival and follows a new group of hotel guests and employees. HBO has not announced a premiere date or release window in the sources available as of October 8, 2026.
What is confirmed about Season 4?
HBO’s official premise says: “The fourth season will follow a new group of White Lotus hotel guests and employees over the span of a week, taking place during the Cannes Film Festival.” The announcement establishes the setting and the central group, but does not disclose character arcs, a full plot, or how the story ends. HBO’s renewal announcement and its filming announcement confirm the season’s status and premise.
Where is Season 4 being filmed?
HBO announced filming on the French Riviera on April 15, 2026. Reporting identifies locations in Cannes and Saint-Tropez, as well as a Paris hotel; the season is not described as being filmed at only one resort.
| Place | Reported production role |
|---|---|
| Cannes: Hôtel Martinez | The real hotel is reported as a central Cannes location. In the series, it is called White Lotus Cannes. Associated Press, May 15, 2026 |
| Saint-Tropez: Château de La Messardière | The real hotel is reported as the fictional White Lotus du Cap. Associated Press, May 15, 2026 |
| Paris hotel | Variety reported a Paris hotel among planned locations but did not identify it in the cited account. Variety, January 10, 2026 |
Variety reported that filming was expected to run from late April through October 2026. That reported production schedule does not establish when the season will be released. According to producer David Bernad, a 2021 trip to the Cannes festival with creator Mike White helped inspire the setting. Bernad told the AP, “The energy around it was so intoxicating and this season will have elements of that.”
