The Block locks in country Victoria for 2024 season

The Block locks in rural hamlet in Victoria for 2024 season – as the hit Channel Nine show prepares to begin filming again

Fans of The Block can look forward to a change of scenery next year, as the show is reportedly heading to rural Victoria for its 2024 season.

While production for the current season is in full swing at Melbourne’s Hampton East, insiders say preparations are also quietly being made for the following year.

According to The Herald Sun, the popular Aussie TV show will film in Daylesford, a scenic rural hamlet located in Victoria’s Central Highlands region. 

Known for its charming countryside and relaxing hot springs, Daylesford is anticipated to serve as the backdrop for the upcoming 2024 season, providing a refreshing twist to the urban settings we’ve seen in past seasons.

Despite Channel Nine’s silence on The Block’s relocation plans, whispers suggest that the 2024 season is slated to showcase five period homes.

These properties will each be set on generous ¾ acre blocks and, following the show’s signature format, will undergo extensive renovations throughout the season.

The production team has reportedly been investigating potential sites within and around Daylesford, hinting at the authenticity of these rumours.

The innovative relocation plan might see period homes transported to the chosen lots, undergoing a stunning transformation akin to what fans have seen in previous seasons.

Although the deal for this innovative season appears to be progressing smoothly, an official confirmation is yet to be announced.

The prospect of The Block relocating to the Hepburn region has been the talk of the town since as early as March.

And while there were earlier rumours about Hepburn Springs being the chosen site, the latest buzz suggests Daylesford as the final pick.

As anticipation continues to grow, many wonder about the local response to such a major production occurring in the tight-knit and consumer-conscious community of Daylesford.

Will the locals welcome the hustle and bustle of The Block with open arms?

Channel Nine, when approached, decided to keep their cards close to their chest. ‘We don’t speculate on the location of future series of The Block,’ they stated.

Meanwhile the current season of The Block is taking place in Charming Street, East Hampton, with familiar faces Scott Cam and Shelley Craft resuming their hosting duties.

This year, they’ll be joined by Melbourne real estate expert Marty Fox, who is set to grace The Block’s judging panel.
