CBS’s 37th season of The Amazing Race is mixing things up, with the network dubbing #37 the “season of surprises.” The 14 new teams, the most in the show’s history, include Vegas performers, gamers, parents, siblings, and dating nurses. Phil Keoghan returns to host the globe-trotting adventure set to premiere on Wednesday, March 5, 2025 at 9:30pm ET/PT.
“This season 14 teams will embark on an unforgettable adventure,” stated Bertram van Munster and Elise Doganieri, co-creators and executive producers. “Traveling around the globe for a stop in Osaka, Japan, where they will experience a modern-day bullet train in a thriving city and then immerse themselves in a 12,000-year-old tradition, performing with a taiko drum group. They will feel the adrenaline rush of skydiving over Dubai’s breathtaking cityscape contrasted with another stop, for the first time on The Amazing Race, in the countryside of Bulgaria, where they will participate in a traditional folk dance.
Adding a new city this season, teams will visit the medieval village of Strasbourg, France, which will feel like stepping into a fairytale. For our season of surprises, there is no end to the drama, twists and turns until we see who the winners are!”
Additional executive producers include Jerry Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman, Phil Keoghan, Mark Vertullo, and Patrick Cariaga.
“The Amazing Race is a multiple Emmy Award-winning reality series hosted by Emmy Award-nominated host Phil Keoghan, where teams of two embark on a trek around the world. At every destination, each team must compete in a series of challenges, some mental and some physical, and only when the tasks are completed will they learn of their next location,” reads CBS’s synopsis. “Teams that are the farthest behind will gradually be eliminated as the contest progresses, with the first team to arrive at the final destination winning The Amazing Race and the $1 million prize.”
