Content powerhouse Banijay today confirms Cuarzo Producciones, part of Banijay Iberia, will co-develop a brand-new reality show ¡Vaya Vacaciones! with Mediaset España.

Presented by Luján Argüelles, ¡Vaya Vacaciones! is set to be the perfect summer watch. Eight celebrity couples will stay in an all-inclusive luxury hotel, accompanied by a couple of their choosing.
