Organisers of the popular reality TV show Big Brother Naija have announced that physical auditions for Season 11 will commence on May 22 in Lagos, Abuja, and Enugu.
The organisers revealed in a statement shared on Instagram that online registration officially began on May 16 and will run until May 20, 2026.
According to the announcement, only Nigerians aged 21 and above who possess valid identification documents are qualified to participate in the audition process.
Speaking on the upcoming season, the organisers said:
“Biggie is calling once again, and this season promises to be bigger and more competitive. Interested participants are encouraged to complete their registration early because available spaces are limited.”
Applicants who successfully register online are expected to take part in the physical screening exercise scheduled to hold from May 22 to May 24 across the three selected cities.
The organisers also clarified that the audition process is completely free for all interested participants.
Another statement from the organisers read:
“We are returning to physical auditions to reconnect directly with fans and discover unique personalities from different parts of the country. Nigerians should expect another exciting season filled with entertainment and surprises.”
The decision marks a return to physical auditions after the show previously adopted virtual and hybrid audition methods in recent seasons.
Recall that Season 10 of Big Brother Naija ended on October 5, 2025, with Opeyemi Ayanwale, popularly known as Imisi, emerging winner after defeating 28 other contestants to clinch the grand prize.
