81 CONTESTANTS. ONE GIANT ARENA. $200,000 ON THE LINE

After becoming Australia’s number one new show of 2025 and delivering the biggest debut in VOZ history*, the hit trivia phenomenon The Floor is returning to the 9Network. 

Bigger, bolder and more ruthless, the high-stakes showdown premieres Sunday, April 19, at 7.00pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.

Hosted by Rodger Corser, a new group of 81 Australians from every corner of the country and all walks of life will step onto the giant interactive LED arena, each defending their specialist subject while battling their neighbours during intense trivia duels for control of The Floor. 

Their mission? Win duels to conquer tiles and claim the entire arena. Only one contestant will walk away with the life-changing $200,000 grand prize.

This season, the stakes reach a whole new dimension with a high-voltage battle of the generations. From seasoned trivia titans to the ‘skibidi’ energy of Gen Z, the arena becomes the ultimate testing ground for every age group.

The gameplay is more unpredictable than ever, with strategic twists designed to reward the bold: the returning Time Boost provides a vital lifeline during duels, while The Freeze allows contestants to lock their territory, shield themselves from the chasing pack and fast-track their place in the Grand Finale.

Among the 81 contestants are several familiar Australians. Olympic Gold Medallist Steven Bradbury knows a thing or two about dramatic finishes, but can lightning strike twice on The Floor? Celebrity chef Hayden Quinn swaps the kitchen for the arena, while Travel Guides star Kevin Moloney trades five-star luxury for high-stakes trivia. And with over a million followers watching his every move, will Love Island Australia’s viral “Egg Man” Tommy Armour crack under the pressure?”

More than just a competition, The Floor is the ultimate family game night. With a massive range of categories, viewers can test their own trivia knowledge and play along from home, racing to beat the contestants on the dazzling LED arena.

Host Rodger Corser said: “I can’t wait for Australia to be immersed in all the drama, suspense and fun of The Floor season two. Super fun new categories combined with a new level of gameplay, strategy and competitiveness will make for plenty of jaw-dropping and hilarious moments.

“So grab your friends and family, park yourself in front of the telly, and see who’s the best in your lounge room in 2026.”
