The Ultimatum season 2 was filmed in Charlotte, North Carolina, the biggest city in the state, which is fast approaching over a million people. The Ultimatum season 2 was filmed in the fall of 2022, starting in late September 2022 until late November, shooting for seven weeks or nearly two months.
The show filmed throughout the city of Charlotte, because it’s a much larger metropolis, with a population close to a million, than Charleston, which has a much smaller population of 150,000. Considering there’s already Bravo reality TV show Southern Charm based in Charleston as well, where everyone knows each other, it made sense to stick to the bigger metropolis of Charlotte for production.
Charlotte is a beautiful city and the 15th largest in America, with lots of parks and greenspace throughout.
