Is I’m a Celeb on tonight? Not yet. I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! 2026 starts on Monday 16 November at 9 pm on ITV1, STV, ITVX and STV Player, and from launch night Ant and Dec present the show live from Australia every night, Capital reported.
This is our I’m a Celeb tonight tracker, and we update it every morning of the series. It covers what time the show starts and finishes, why there’s no Sunday launch this year, how to vote, who has left the jungle, where to watch, and when the final is.
Not on tonight. Launch night is Monday 16 November.Mon 16 Nov.
9 pm on ITV1, STV, ITVX and STV Player, then live every night until the final.
Is I’m a Celeb on tonight?
No. There’s no I’m a Celeb tonight, Tuesday 10 November. The 2026 series starts on Monday 16 November at 9 pm on ITV1, and it’s on every night from then.
If you’re checking on Sunday 15 November, the answer is still no. I’m a Celeb normally launches on a Sunday night, but this year ITV is showing England’s Nations League match in Spain that evening, so the jungle opens on the Monday instead.
What time is I’m a Celeb on tonight, and when does it finish?
Launch night starts at 9 pm on Monday 16 November. ITV hasn’t published the episode’s running time yet, so the finish time is still to be confirmed.
| Night | Starts | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Sun 15 Nov | No episode | Football on ITV1 |
| Mon 16 NovLaunch night | 9 pmFinish time TBC | ITV1, STV, ITVX, STV Player |
| Tue 17 NovAnd every night after | To be confirmed | ITV1, STV, ITVX, STV Player |
We add each night’s start and finish times here every morning, as soon as ITV’s listings are out.
9 pm is the show’s regular slot. Last year it went out every night at 9 pm, ITV’s press office said. But the slot can move. On Saturday 7 December 2024, ITV pushed the show back half an hour to 9.30 pm to make room for the return of You Bet!, The Star reported.
Why isn’t I’m a Celeb on Sunday 15 November?
Football. Spain play England in the Nations League in Madrid that night and ITV is showing the match, so the launch moved to Monday.
The game kicks off at 20:45 local time at Atlético Madrid’s Riyadh Air Metropolitano, the club said. That’s 7.45 pm in the UK, so a 9 pm launch would have landed in the second half.
ITV confirmed the Monday launch on 2 November but hasn’t given a reason itself. The football explanation came from a source who spoke to The Sun, and Memorable TV has reported the same. The odd part is that the date hasn’t moved at all. Last year’s series also launched on 16 November. It just fell on a Sunday in 2025.
Is I’m a Celeb on every night?
Yes. ITV says Ant and Dec will present live every night from Australia, and last year there was an episode on all 22 nights, from launch night to the final.
Live means live. The camp is in New South Wales, which has been on daylight saving time since 4 October, the NSW Government says, putting it 11 hours ahead of the UK. So when the show starts at 9 pm here, it’s 8 am the next morning in the jungle.

Those are the rules ITV used for the most recent series, I’m a Celebrity… South Africa in April, according to its voting FAQs, and they match last year’s for the main series. ITV’s page for the 2026 series just says “Coming Soon” for now, so we’ll update this when the new rules go up.
What you’re voting for changes as the series goes on. Last year the public picked campmates for some of the Bushtucker Trials, and from Day 13 the votes were to save campmates, with whoever had the fewest leaving, according to the record of the 2025 series.
Who has left I’m a Celeb so far?
Nobody yet. The series hasn’t started, and ITV hasn’t named the 2026 campmates.
| Day | Campmate | Result |
|---|---|---|
| No one has left the jungle yet | ||
Last year nobody was voted out for almost a fortnight. Alex Scott was the first to go, on Day 13, 28 November 2025, and eight more campmates left in the week before the final.
As for who’s going in, ITV named last year’s campmates on 10 November 2025, six days before launch. It hasn’t named this year’s yet, so every name so far is a report. Our I’m a Celeb 2026 line-up tracker has all 12 names The Sun has reported, including Wayne Rooney, who has landed in Australia, SPORTbible reported.
When is the I’m a Celeb final?
