UK competition series Race Across The World has been renewed for a third season.
The series hasn’t resumed since 2020 due to the pandemic but is returning with an eight-part series, the most extreme to date.
Five pairs of intrepid travellers will race across Canada from ocean to ocean. Starting out in Vancouver, teams will travel over 16,000 kilometres across six time zones all to the finish line in North America’s most easterly city – St John’s Newfoundland.
Without the use of air travel or any of the trappings of modern-day life, they’ll have no mobile phone, internet access or credit cards to assist them, and must rely on the kindness of strangers to win a cash prize.
In addition, a Celebrity Race Across The World will also go into production later this year.
Race Across The World last screened in Australia on Nine.

Love this show – great to see its return!
On a side note – I’d like to see them do an Australian version of this from like Hobart to Tokyo or something
Best TV news since Heartstopper got renewed. Thanks David for passing it on.
This is great news. I’ve loved both series of this show. Can’t wait.
Excellent! I agree! I really enjoyed the land based travel and authentic challenge of working and paying for transport and accommodation! Great cast too!
