Emily in Paris Filming in Mykonos: Cast, Locations & Season 6 Secrets

Netflix’s global phenomenon Emily in Paris has officially arrived in Greece, with Season 6 now filming in Mykonos, transforming the Cycladic island into the latest glamorous backdrop for one of television’s most visually iconic series.

After Paris, Saint-Tropez, Rome and Venice, creator Darren Star is taking Emily Cooper into a new Mediterranean chapter filled with whitewashed alleyways, luxury beach clubs, cinematic sunsets and the unmistakable energy of the Greek islands. For Mykonos, the production marks far more than another celebrity visit. It signals the island’s continued evolution into a global luxury lifestyle destination and one of Europe’s most desirable filming locations.

Lily Collins and the Emily in Paris Cast Arrive in Greece

Leading the Greek production is Lily Collins, who reprises her role as Emily Cooper. Recent filming photos captured the actress at the iconic Mykonos windmills overlooking Chora, instantly igniting excitement across international entertainment and travel media.

Returning cast members expected to appear in the new season include Ashley Park as Mindy Chen, Lucas Bravo as Gabriel, Lucien Laviscount as Alfie, Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu as Sylvie Grateau, Samuel Arnold as Julien and Bruno Gouery as Luc.

International reports suggest Greece and Monaco will become central settings this season following the dramatic ending of Season 5, where Gabriel invited Emily to Greece, a storyline that naturally positions Mykonos as the perfect setting for romance, fashion and Mediterranean escapism.

Why Mykonos Is the Perfect Emily in Paris Filming Location

And few destinations align more perfectly with the glossy visual identity of Emily in Paris than Mykonos itself.

Production crews have already been spotted filming around some of the island’s most recognizable locations. Little Venice, with its waterfront terraces suspended above the Aegean Sea, is expected to feature prominently in sunset scenes and evening sequences. The historic Mykonos windmills have already appeared during filming, while the labyrinth-like streets of Chora provide the kind of cinematic European backdrop the series has become known for.

But the production also appears to be exploring a different side of the island beyond its cosmopolitan image. Reports suggest filming began at Agios Sostis Beach, one of Mykonos’ last undeveloped beaches, known for its raw natural beauty and crystal-clear waters. Panormos Beach, which blends bohemian luxury with a more laid-back atmosphere, is also believed to feature in the new season.

Local speculation continues around several luxury venues and beach clubs rumoured to be connected to filming, including Scorpios, JackieO’ Beach Club and Principote — destinations that have become synonymous with the island’s contemporary luxury scene and global social lifestyle culture.

How Emily in Paris Is Elevating Mykonos Globally

The choice of Mykonos feels both strategic and inevitable. Over the last decade, the island has transformed into an international symbol of aspirational Mediterranean living, attracting fashion insiders, celebrities, creatives and luxury travellers from around the world.

Yet beyond the famous nightlife lies a destination of striking contrasts: quiet hidden coves, minimalist villas carved into cliffs, elegant boutique hotels, long seaside lunches and sunsets that seem designed for cinema.

For Netflix, Mykonos offers everything Emily in Paris thrives on: instantly recognizable scenery, high-fashion aesthetics, luxury hospitality and escapist storytelling. The series has repeatedly proven its ability to influence global travel trends, turning featured destinations into must-visit locations almost overnight. Industry analysts already expect searches for Mykonos hotels, villas, restaurants and beach clubs to surge once the new season airs.

Greece Continues Its Rise as an International Filming Destination

The arrival of Emily in Paris also reflects Greece’s growing presence in the international entertainment industry. In recent years, the country has emerged as one of the Mediterranean’s most attractive filming destinations, thanks to its landscapes, luxury infrastructure and expanding global cultural profile.

But Emily in Paris brings something uniquely powerful, not simply visibility, but lifestyle influence.

The series does not just showcase destinations. It transforms them into fantasies.

And now, Mykonos officially becomes part of that world.

The scene captured by Mykonos Live TV shows Emily unexpectedly reuniting with Gabriel inside a local fruit market in Mykonos before Mindy Chen joins them moments later, hinting at another emotional chapter in the couple’s complicated love story.
