Here’s what I found about MasterChef air dates in 2026.
MasterChef (US, FOX) 2026 season: Premiered mid-April 2026 and aired on Wednesday nights at 8:00 PM ET/PT, with episodes available the next day on streaming. This aligns with a Wednesday timeslot typical for FOX reality competition shows. [cite]
MasterChef Australia 2026: Premiered on Sunday, April 19, 2026, with a four-night schedule (Sunday to Wednesday) and air times around 7:00–7:30 PM on Channel 10. [cite]
MasterChef UK (BBC) 2026: The 22nd series was planned to premiere on BBC One around late April 2026, with episodes airing in the traditional evening slots (expect Tuesdays–Thursdays at 9:00 PM for consecutive nights). [cite]
