Celebrity Big Brother 2024 will launch on 4 March and run for a little under three weeks, it’s been confirmed.
ITV previously confirmed the return of Celebrity Big Brother to our screens this year, following the successful reboot of Big Brother on ITV2 last autumn.
The show will kick off with a launch on Monday, 4 March.
The launch will be completely live and will be the first time that the housemates on the all star line up are revealed to viewers.
It will run for 17 episodes – airing Sunday – Friday nights – with a potential final on 22 March.
Unlike the recent BBUK return, the Celebrity series will air on the main ITV1 channel.
