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.
With six versions adapted in over 60 territories worldwide and broadcast in over 200 territories, MasterChef is watched globally by over 300 million viewers and has transformed over 100 amateur chefs into professionals. The success of MasterChef is down to its highly adaptable format that taps into a global appetite for watching everyday people fulfil their dreams of achieving something extraordinary.
