EXCLUSIVE: Rock the Block, HGTV‘s highest-rated series, will be back for another go-round. The network has renewed the home reno series for a seventh season, set to premiere in early 2026.
The upcoming seven-episode season will be set in Las Vegas, with a celebrity twist. HGTV will pair its top design stars with celebs who share a passion for design.
Ty Pennington (Battle on the Beach) returns to host the new season, which will feature four duos battling it out in an epic renovation showdown. They are real estate expert and contractor Scott McGillivray (Renovation Resort Showdown) with singer, television personality and design firm owner Brooke Hogan; Taniya Nayak (Battle on the Beach) with 98 degrees band member Drew Lachey, Mina Starsiak Hawk (Good Bones) with former NFL star and Super Bowl champ, actor Vernon Davis, and former Survivor winner, designer and home renovator Kim Wolfe (Why the Heck Did I Buy This House?) with reality TV star and fellow Survivor alum Chelsea Meissner.
Each team will have just six weeks and a budget of $275,000 to transform the identical cul-de-sac builds boasting one-level living with private courtyards, multi-generational suites and RV garages into luxurious Sin City homes that reflect their signature vision and stunning design style, according to HGTV. Only one team will hit the jackpot, winning bragging rights and a street named in their honor.

“Rock the Block is a standout performer on HGTV’s slate, attracting millions in our key demos and holding the #1 spot on the network for four years straight,” said Howard Lee, Chief Creative Officer, US Networks, Warner Bros. Discovery. “And we find new ways to amp up the competition, the drama and the fun every season, so we know our fans will keep coming back.”
HGTV canceled a slew of series over the summer, including Christina on the Coast, The Flipping El Moussas, Farmhouse Fixer, Married to Real Estate, Bargain Block, and Izzy Does It, attributing the cuts to factors like declining viewership and rising production costs. But Rock the Block, with stellar ratings, has stood the test of time.
The homes are built by Landon Miller Homes based in Las Vegas.
Rock the Block is produced by Big Table Media.
This is one of the worst shows on HGTV. They should un-cancel Bargain Block and bring back some design shows, idgaf about any of these so-called designers and their modern farmhouse monstrosities. And Ty Pennington… please, no.
I wish they would have kept Bargain Block and Farmhouse Fixer. I’m tired of most of the shows shown areas of the south and west parts of the U.S.
I agree 100%!
