Celebrity Wheel of Fortune is back. Season 6 will premiere on Friday, September 27. But there are some new faces and some familiar ones this season. Ryan Seacrest will replace veteran host Pat Sajak, who hosted his final season last year. This season will also include a new slew of celebrities, including the cast members of Dancing with the Stars.
Celebrity Contestants Announced
WoF fans looked forward to the return of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, which was featured on ABC’s fall 2025 lineup. While it’s returning for a sixth season, it’s going to look a little different.
Ryan Seacrest will host his first season of the celebrity version, in which these famous faces compete for charity. He will host alongside Vanna White. The premiere date was announced during the summer, but the lineup was kept under wraps until now.
The premiere will feature Derek Hough, Bruno Tonioli, and Jenna Johnson of DWTS. The remaining lineup for the remainder of the season includes The Hunting Wives stars Katie Lowes, Jaime Ray Newman, and Malin Akerman.
Other celebrity contestants include New Kids on the Block member Joey McIntyre, NBA Hall of Famer Dwight Howard, rapper 2 Chainz, comedian Alex Borstein, director and producer Paul Feig, and singer Tori Kelly. TV Insider reports that more names will be announced throughout the season.
How To Watch
The new season will premiere on Friday, September at 8 p.m. ET. This schedule is slightly different from Season 5, which aired on Wednesday nights.
Celebrity Wheel of Fortune swapped spots with Shark Tank, which used to reign on Friday nights. The classic game show will stream new episodes the following day on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+ for bundle subscribers.
The celebrity version isn’t the only one that’s available to stream. For the first time ever, viewers can also stream new episodes of WoF and Jeopardy! on Peacock, Hulu, and Disney+.
