A release date for the brand new season of The Masked Singer Australia has been confirmed.

The new series will premiere on Sunday, 7 August at 7.30pm on 10 and 10 Play.

In what is set to be the biggest and best season yet, concealed powerhouse performers will take to the stage, disguised as the most bizarre characters. Hot on their tail is the superstar guessing panel: Mel B, Chrissie Swan, Abbie Chatfield and Dave Hughes, who will try to figure out who is behind the mask.

Mel B said, “Hello Australia. I have missed you so much but I am back and I can’t wait to get the party started with Hughesy, Abbie and Chrissie. Let me tell you though, I am the best-ever game player and I have something up my sleeve that none of these guys have… I’ve hidden behind these masks as a competitor not once but twice.

“So I’m bringing all my secret inside knowledge to this. But more to the point, I’m bringing the fun. Fasten your seatbelts everyone, it’s going to be a rollercoaster ride,” the Spice Girls star added.

On joining The Masked Singer Australia, Abbie Chatfield added, “I am thrilled to be joining the panel! I’m the first to say I can be competitive and I’m so ready to put my pop culture knowledge to the test and guess who is under the mask. Bring on the clues!”

On joining this year’s panel, Swan said: “I’m here to guess who is under the masks, I’m here to get them right and I mean business! And let’s face it, I couldn’t possibly be any worse than Hughesy at guessing them correctly!”  

On returning to The Masked Singer Australia, Hughes said: “How lucky am I to already have three amazing years with a brilliant cast. I look forward to another season of so much fun with a stellar new guessing group. They are going to look for me for guidance. God help them.”  

This season audiences can expect more showstopping costumes, a varying range of singing prowess, behind the scenes secrecy that puts Get Smart to shame, a panel of pop culture junkies, and above all, a show that will leave you asking yourself: “What the hell did I just watch?”

The Masked Singer Australia premieres Sunday, 7 August at 7.30pm on 10 and 10 Play.
