MasterChef Australia. Premieres Monday, 22 April At 7:30pm On 10 And 10 Play.
MasterChef Australia has searched the country far and wide to find 22 of Australia’s most exceptional home-cooks to go head-to-head in a season like never before.
The competition will be fierce as the contestants battle it out for the coveted title of MasterChef Australia winner 2024 and $250,000 in prize money. This season will also see a money-can’t-buy prize on offer, with an opportunity of a lifetime in store for the winner.
MasterChef Australia’s judging panel, Andy Allen, Poh Ling-Yeow, Jean-Christophe Novelli and Sofia Levin, will mentor this season’s crop of contenders through exciting challenges designed to test and develop them, while honing their skills at every turn.
Season 16’s top 22 hail from all parts of Australia with six contestants representing NSW and Victoria, five contestants calling Queensland home, three contestants from Western Australia, and a hopeful from both Tasmania and South Australia who are cooking for their home state with pride.
A pharmacologist, a primary school teacher, a butcher, a lettering artist, a carpenter and a coffee roaster are among the top 22 who have claimed a coveted MasterChef Australia apron this season.
Week on week the competition will provide once-in-a-lifetime opportunities for our MasterChef Australia hopefuls, featuring a who’s who of chefs from across the globe, and taking the competition on the road, winging it all the way to culinary hot spot Hong Kong, as well as visiting regional Aussie gems Bendigo and Ballarat.
We’re thrilled to introduce the MasterChef Australia class of 2024.
