The Block 2026: Everything You Need to Know
theblock.tv is your independent, no-fluff guide to The Block, Channel Nine’s renovation juggernaut. We’re not affiliated with Nine, we just watch every episode so you don’t have to sift through twenty tabs to find out who’s winning, who’s fighting, and what the judges actually said.
Season 22 landed at Mount Eliza on the Mornington Peninsula on 2 August 2026, the first time in the show’s history the site has water views, and the first time all five teams are bunking together instead of living on-site. Below you’ll find the season hub with confirmed air dates and the full TV guide, contestant profiles for all five teams, and a live rumour tracker rating every leak from “someone’s cousin heard” through to officially confirmed.
Looking further ahead? We’re already tracking every claim about The Block 2027, location rumours, casting whispers and timing guesses, all rated for how much you should actually believe them.
