After months of anticipation, My Kitchen Rules judges Colin Fassnidge and Manu Feildel have shared a major update about the 2026 season!
And they might have just revealed the release day in the process…
Scroll on for everything you need to know.
Is My Kitchen Rules coming back in 2026?
Thankfully, it is!
That means we can expect to see lots of delicious dishes, with a side of drama. Or will the dinner table antics become the main courses!
Will there be another “Meat Master”? We will have to wait and see!
The cast haven’t been announced yet, but we will let you know when they are.
Who are the hosts of My Kitchen Rules?
Once again, chefs Colin Fassnidge and Mani Feildel will be judging the series.
They don’t necessarily “host” the show, but they certainly keep (or try to) the contestants in line.
When will filming for My Kitchen Rules 2026 take place?
Colin and Manu took to Instagram on June 14 to confirm that filming has wrapped for the 2026 season.
The pair shared a video of them wearing suits in MKR’s headquarters, filming what looks like is the show’s finale.
In the reel, they stood at the front, while the show’s crew stood on the show’s set of stairs.
“THAT’S A WRAP !!!!!!!!! 3 months away ……….. Get ready for @mykitchenrules …….🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥” Colin wrote in a joint post.
Filming the show is no walk in the park.
2022 winner Monzir Hamdin previously told how contestants are filmed for up to 14 hours per day at each Instant Restaurant.
“I had no idea what I was going into,” he told Yahoo! Lifestyle. “I just thought it would be three to four hours of filming a day, and you cook and give it out, and then it’s all done.
“And then I went on there and we were filming for 12 to 14 hours, and then they cut it down to one hour.
“And behind the scenes, everything you see is different; you have to keep repeating yourself. I’d never been in front of the cameras, so seeing it all was very, very different.”
When will My Kitchen Rules 2026 air?
Channel Seven confirmed that MKR would be returning to air at the 2026 Upfronts event on October 21.
They have not yet confirmed when it will air, but if Colin and Manu’s post is anything to go by, it’ll air in September.
Usually, it airs at the start of September, but with their post in mind, it could be in the middle of the month.
