Nine announces partners for the new season of The Block

The partners for s12 of The Block include Suzuki, Domain, ALDI, Mitre 10, McCafé, Telstra and Stayz.

Nine has announced ALDI, Domain, McCafé, Mitre10, Stayz, Suzuki and Telstra as commercial partners of season twelve of The Block.

The seven partners will integrate across all facets of Australia’s longest-running realty reality program when it returns to Nine on August 21, as five new teams of renovators go head-to-head to modernise the derelict headquarters of a historic Australian soap and candle factory in Melbourne.

“Advertisers’ appetite for quality Australian content has never been more apparent, and when you consider five of the seven commercial partners on the next season are returning year-on-year it demonstrates the impact such a format has when it comes to delivering real outcomes for clients,” said Lizzie Young, Nine’s director of innovation, partnerships and experience.

“It’s a seamless integration model that shows no boundaries when it comes to entry points for clients. Whether it’s a multiscreen content series housed on 9Now featuring The Block talent, 360-degree video room reveals that bring viewers closer to the content like never before, product integration that sits at the core of the story, or offering consumers money-can’t-buy experiences, The Block leads the way for placing a client’s story at the heart of premium, world-class content.”
