Big Brother Mzansi season 6 auditions are open

Big Brother Mzansi has been renewed for the sixth season, and has opened their audition lines to the public.

Big Brother Mzansi affords its contestants a chance to showcase their talents on a bigger platform with their weekly tasks. The winner of this season will join the likes of Sweet Guluva and McJunior who won in previous seasons.

Entries for Season 6 of Big Brother Mzansi officially opened on Thursday 2 October. Those who want a chance to become the next Big Brother Mzansi housemate and possible winner will need to submit a two-minute audition tape and follow the steps to enter.

If you are a citizen/legal resident of South Africa and 21 years of age or older (as of 1 January 2026), then you can enter Big Brother Mzansi 6. The show’s selection team is looking for housemates who are fun-loving, creative, and original. Most importantly, they have to be open-minded and tolerant of the views and lifestyle choices of others. To give you an edge over other competitors, applicants need to be creative, memorable, and have the wit to outplay and outlast their fellow housemates.

Channel Director for Local Entertainment Channels, Shirley Adonisi said: “Big Brother Mzansi continues to be one of South Africa’s most culturally resonant reality shows, offering a bold and unfiltered lens into the lives of everyday South Africans.

“More than just entertainment, the show ignites national conversations around identity, relationships, and social dynamics, while celebrating the vibrancy and diversity of Mzansi youth. With its immersive format and real-time audience engagement, Big Brother Mzansi remains a powerful platform for self-expression, discovery, and the emergence of new talent,” said Shirley.
