Latest News About When Was I'm A Celebrity 2026 Filmed

I don’t have live tool access right now to pull the very latest, but here’s what is widely reported about I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! Australia 2026 filming:

• Filming date and format: The 2026 Australian season is reported to have been filmed in advance (pre-recorded) rather than aired live. This marks a shift from previous years where episodes aired in near real time. This information is reflected in multiple entertainment outlets covering the 2026 season.[1][3][7]
• Air date: The season premiered on January 18, 2026 on Channel 10, with episodes scheduled across the week, consistent with the show’s typical Sunday premiere and midweek entries.[3][5][8]
• Filming location: The Australian edition is consistently tied to a South African jungle shoot base (Kruger region) for this era, though some reporting notes that production sites and logistics may be under negotiation or evolving terms with local authorities; this aligns with ongoing discussions about sustaining the long-running Australian version at the same site.[2][5][3]
• Cast and format notes: The 2026 season had a typical ensemble of contestants announced in advance, with the show continuing to pair familiar hosts and format elements (down-the-line trials, eliminations, and live-style finales in some formats). Several outlets published cast teasers and episode guides for 2026.[5][9][3]
