On Monday, 30 June and Tuesday, 1 July Big Brother Africa will be hosting open auditions for potential South African housemates at The Pyramid Venue and Conference Centre in Johannesburg. Season nine will run for 91 days and will screen 24 hours a day from 7 September on DStv channels 197 and 198, while highlights will be available on GOtv. The winning contestant will receive $300,000 in prize money.

Presented by AfricaMagic and produced by Endemol, Big Brother invites entrants from Botswana, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Namibia, Nigeria, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe to audition in their respective country venues.

Wangi Wa-Uzoukwu, Regional Director for M-Net Africa (West Africa) says, The fact that the fans truly adore the show is all the motivation we need to keep it fresh and that is always made possible by the enthusiastic and fun-loving young Africans who will answer to Big Brother. We are rearing to go and we know that this will definitely be another exciting season that is full of quality entertainment.

Sivan Pillay, Managing Director of Endemol adds, We have been producing this series for M-Net for a number of seasons now and as partners, together we have seen this show grow to the phenomenon that it has become. We hope the season will be even better as we strive to improve on our offering season after season. We will not hold back on the quality and exciting unpredictability that has become synonymous with Big Brother Africa. Audiences and fans can expect yet another high quality production and of course, another group of fun-loving housemates who will keep you guessing on who will be left standing come day 91.

Auditioning entrants must:

Be over the age of 21

Citizens of one of the participating countries

Have a valid passport

Be open-minded, bold and adventurous

Nico Meyer, CEO of MultiChoice Africa concludes: As MultiChoice Africa we are always pleased to welcome each new season of Big Brother Africa onto our platforms and we applaud its amazing success and ability to bring together audiences from all across the continent. The inclusion of Rwanda in this season is even more exciting as this displays that our reach and growth into the various sub-Saharan markets is going from strength to strength. We look forward to seeing further growth as well as the impressive social media presence that the show enjoys.
