Where is The Block 2024 being filmed?
Channel Nine has confirmed that the upcoming 2024 season of The Block will be filmed at Phillip Island.
Originally, the series was reportedly set to take place in the regional Victorian town of Daylesford where producers had purchased five pavilion-style homes on Raglan Street, before being moved in September to the new location.
Unfortunately however due to backlash from local residents and planning permit issues, the location was moved just five months out from filming.
An anonymous Block insider told the Herald Sun at the time, "We’ve had so many successful series in so many different locations, but we don’t go where we are not welcome.”
Channel Nine has since purchased 2.5 acres of land for almost $9.6 million on Phillip Island.
You can find more information on why the location was moved from Daylesford to Phillip Island, and what our 2024 Blockheads may be renovating here.
Who is hosting The Block in 2024?
The only confirmation we've got so far is that Scotty Cam will be returning! Scotty's "mammoth challenges" were mentioned on the 2024 application website.
However, if the past seasons of The Block are anything to go by, we're sure Shelley Craft will be back in 2024.
Who is judging The Block in 2024?
In 2023, the judging panel included veterans Neale Whitaker, Darren Palmer, and Shaynna Blaze.
Melbourne real estate tycoon Marty Fox also made his debut as a judge that year as Neale took time out from the renovation reality show.
For now, it seems like all four judges will be returning for the 2024 season of The Block.
Does The Block 2024 have a theme?
The Block 2023 blew us away with their 1950s theme, with poodle skirts, big hair, and leather jackets in all the commercials.
Since they went back in time last year, we wonder if they're going to the future this year - putting a modern twist on country homes.
When will The Block 2024 houses go on auction?
The Block auctions usually happen around October and November.
Fingers crossed we'll see Danny Wallis or Adrian Portelli make an appearance!
When will The Block 2024 premiere?
Going off previous seasons, The Block will likely premiere in August 2024.
Who has been cast in the 2024 season of The Block?
The cast of the 20th season of The Block has not yet been officially revealed by Channel Nine.
Locals of Phillip Island however have spotted contestants filming around Phillip Island.
And if rumours are to be believed a couple has dramatically quit just weeks into filming!
An insider source also revealed to Yahoo Lifestyle that new contestants have been instructed to “cull” their social media accounts to under 1000 followers to “avoid looking like potential influencers" and to appear "humble" to viewers.
