Seven confirms a new season of the hit reality series.
Australian Idol will return in 2026, with Seven confirming a new season of the long-running talent format for its free-to-air network and streaming platform 7plus.
The series will once again see everyday Australians step onto the Idol stage in the hope of launching a music career, as the show continues its revival run following its return to Seven in recent years.
The upcoming season will feature judges Marcia Hines, Amy Shark and Kyle Sandilands, who will search nationwide for performers with vocal ability, stage presence and commercial appeal.
Seven said the 2026 season will continue the show’s focus on undiscovered talent, with auditions held across the country and stories centred on contestants from a wide range of backgrounds.
A preview clip released by Seven features 23-year-old Central Coast landscaper Kalani, whose understated audition earns praise from judge Amy Shark ahead of the 2026 season.
Australian Idol is scheduled to air on Seven and 7plus in 2026.
