official Survivor South Africa 2025-2026 | Auditions, Application Entries

We are pleased as we keep you updated about Survivor South Africa 2025-2026 | Auditions, Application Entries

The show follows the same general format as the other editions of the show. The players are split between two “tribes”, are taken to a remote island and are forced to live off the land with meager supplies for an extended period of time. Frequent physical and mental challenges are used to pit the teams against each other for rewards, such as food or luxuries, or for “immunity”, forcing the other tribe to attend “Tribal Council”, where they must vote off one of their players.

Once about half of the players are remaining, those who remain are merged into a single tribe, and competitions are on an individual basis; winning immunity prevents that player from being voted out. Most players that are voted out at this stage form the “Tribal Council Jury”. Once down to two people (three in Champions and Island of Secrets), a final Tribal Council is held where the remaining players plead their case to the Jury as to why they should win the game. The jury then votes for which player should be considered the “Ultimate Survivor” and wins the grand prize of R1Million.

Entries have officially opened, and those who think they have the skills to become the sole survivor on a desolate exotic island have until Monday 20 January at midnight to enter.

Executive Producer Handrie Basson says: “If you love watching Survivor, if you have shouted at the TV in frustration and admiration and if you have said ‘I can do this!’ or if you have thought ‘I will never do that!’… then it’s time to get off the couch and onto the island!”

Nico Panagio will return as host of Survivor SA season eight which will air on M-Net (DStv 101) in the second half of 2020.

To be eligible to enter, you have to be 18 years or older by 20 January 2020. You also have to be a South African citizen or have a permanent residence status and need to make sure that your passport is valid until August 2020.

To enter, you have to complete the online entry form here. Once you have logged on to, you will go through a quick and easy online audition process. First, you will be asked to fill in a short application form with a few personal questions, and thereafter you have to submit a three-minute video, showcasing your game plan and why the Survivor SA team should pick you. If your online application is successful, you will be contacted by the Survivor SA team for a call-back, and who knows, you could be part of the next season’s castaways.

Auditions for Survivor South Africa: Champions will be held in the following cities around South Africa:
Johannesburg: Thursday, 1 August at the Indaba Hotel
Cape Town: Thursday, 8 August at The River Club
Durban: Thursday, 15 August at The BAT Centre.
Contestants must be older than 18, with a valid passport, the personality and the determination to remain standing in the harshest of circumstances.
The audition dates listed above are the only dates contestants may come to audition. It will be a first come, first served process, so contestants should try to arrive by 08:00 on the day of their audition.
Contestants can download their entry form from www.mnet.co.za, print it out and bring it with them on the day of their audition. Alternatively, there will be entry forms available at each venue.
