ITV is heading back to the savanna for a second run of I'm A Celebrity – the 2026 All-stars spin-off that swaps first-timers for returning camp legends in the South African bush. You can watch I'm A Celebrity 2026 online from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free.

Like the first South Africa season, this All-stars series was pre-recorded in South Africa, with filming taking place in September 2025. The big format change comes at the end, when the grand final airs live on Friday, April 24 and lets the public vote for the winner for the first time in this spin-off.

The series launches on Monday, April 6, airing on ITV1 and streaming on ITV, with STV and STV Player also carrying it in Scotland.
