The Seven Network’s My Kitchen Rules has taken the crown as Australia’s #1 cooking show, with the 2024 season reaching 9.8 million people and drawing its biggest audience since 2019.
This year’s series ended on a high last night, with Simone and Viviana victory in the Grand Final reaching 1.85 million and attracting an average audience of 1.13 million, up 9% on last year’s Grand Final and also the biggest number since 2019.
More than 116,900 people watched the Grand Final on 7plus, a record number and up 87% on last year.
Across its 2024 season, My Kitchen Rules was up 4% on last year, including 49% jump on 7plus. It joins Australian Idol, Farmer Wants A Wife, The Front Bar and the TV WEEK Logie Awards on the list of key Seven entertainment shows that have grown their audiences this year.
Seven Network’s Director of Content, Unscripted, Majella Hay, said: “Real food, great home cooks, Manu and Colin were a fantastic combination again this year and Australia responded, making this year’s My Kitchen Rules the best and the biggest in five years.
“Thank you to our wonderful judges and home cooks, and to everyone at Seven and ITV Studios for creating such great entertainment. We can’t wait for the 2025 season.”
Seven’s National Television Sales Director, Katie Finney, said: “My Kitchen Rules wouldn’t have been possible without the support and commitment of our major partners Spotlight, Woolworths and – for the first time – Lurpak, plus our sponsors Kaboodle Kitchens and Sensodyne. Thank you to all of them.
“My Kitchen Rules is the perfect platform to integrate brands authentically, giving the contestants in the competition what they need to shine and inspiring our audiences to take action – whether it’s cooking the recipes from the show or drawing style inspiration from the contestants’ instant home restaurants.”
My Kitchen Rules is produced for Seven by ITV Studios Australia and will return in 2025.
