MasterChef is the worldwide smash hit format that sets out on a nationwide quest to find the best amateur cook in the country.
This cook must have passion, creativity, technical skill and a true love of food. Through tough individual and team challenges, our amateur cooks are judged by some of the country’s top chefs and distinguished food critics. It’s a life-changing journey for many, but only one will be crowned the nation’s MasterChef.
In 2017, MasterChef gained a Guinness World Record for the world’s Most Successful Cookery Television Format.
Now adapted in 71 territories worldwide, and broadcast in over 200, MasterChef is watched globally by over 300 million viewers and has transformed many lives the world over for over 20 years.
