where is the block 2026

The Block 2026 is set to be filmed in Mount Eliza on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, at a large development site around 109 Old Mornington Road (often described as a 1.35‑hectare, roughly $11 million site).

Quick Scoop

• Suburb & region: Mount Eliza, a coastal town on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, about an hour’s drive south of Melbourne.

• Exact site : Media reports and property records point to a subdivided development at or around 109 Old Mornington Road (also written as Old Mornington Peninsula Road in some pieces).

• Deal details : Channel Nine is reported to have acquired six blocks on this 1.35‑hectare site for close to $11 million from former racing driver Rusty French.

What’s special about this location?

• Mount Eliza is known for its bayside setting on Port Phillip Bay, with secluded beaches like Canadian Bay and Ranelagh Beach and a village-style shopping strip.

• The development itself was marketed as a gated community with large blocks, luxury homes, pools, and indoor–outdoor living, which lines up neatly with The Block’s high‑end renovation style.

How this fits The Block’s trend

• The show has stayed in Victoria for recent seasons (Daylesford, Phillip Island, Hampton East, Gisborne, Brighton), and Mount Eliza continues that Victorian focus while shifting from city/suburbs to a more coastal lifestyle setting.

• There had been chatter about a possible move to Queensland (e.g., Burleigh Heads) in future seasons, but for 2026 the production has locked in Mount Eliza instead.
