Im A Celeb Start Date 2026

So, I was in the pub the other night, right? And old mate, Tommy, who's been watching I'm A Celebrity... since it was first a twinkle in Ant and Dec's eyes, turns to me and says, "You know what I'm looking forward to more than Christmas this year? The new series start date!" I laughed, but then I thought, "Hang on a minute, when does the new series start?" And here we are, folks. Let's dive in, shall we?

Mark Your Calendars, Folks!

Alright, so the big question on everyone's lips (well, maybe not everyone, but certainly Tommy's) is: when does I'm A Celebrity... 2026 kick off? Well, grab your diaries, because it's been confirmed that the first episode will air on Monday, November 23rd, 2026. Yes, you heard it here first (well, second, if you count Tommy).

But What About The Rumours?

Now, I know what you're thinking. "But what about the rumours that it's starting earlier this year?" Well, I've got two words for you: Fake News. Okay, that's three words, but you get the gist. The official start date is November 23rd, so don't go planning any early dinners just yet.

And while we're on the subject of rumours, let's address the elephant in the room. No, I'm not talking about the size of Ant's new haircut (although, let's be real, it's a topic that deserves some serious discussion). I'm talking about the celebrities. Who's in? Who's out? Who's been eaten by a kangaroo (too soon?)?

Celebrity Spillages

Alright, so I can't reveal all the secrets (where's the fun in that?), but I can tell you that the line-up this year is looking stellar. We're talking A-listers, B-listers, even a few C-listers who've been hiding out in the jungle for the past decade. Okay, maybe not that last one. But you get the picture.

When does I'm A Celeb 2026 start

Now, I know what you're thinking. "But what about the challenges? The trials? The sheer, unadulterated chaos?" Patience, my friend. All will be revealed in good time. But let me just say this: if you thought last year's 'Eggs-cape' challenge was a bit of a hard-boiled situation, wait until you see what they've got planned for 2026.

Get Ready For The Ride

So there you have it, folks. I'm A Celebrity... 2026 is just around the corner, and it's shaping up to be a wild ride. Mark your calendars, set your reminders, and get ready to laugh, cry, and cringe your way through another series of reality TV gold. And if you see Tommy in the pub, tell him he's welcome.
