Meet the Teams
For the 20th season, The Block is heading to Phillip Island, the stunning coastal holiday hotspot only two hours from the Melbourne CBD. Block Island will bring together five couples from around Australia who will build their dream home that could change their lives forever.
Meet the contestants for The Block 2024.
Kylie and Brad are parents of four children from Far North Queensland.
Kylie is 37 and a hairdresser, which would come in handy with maintaining her shiny green hair. She also runs a business selling hair products with her mum, but isn’t afraid to pick up a drill and get stuck in.
Brad is 32 and no stranger to a building site as he works as an electrician and plumber. They’ve been married for seven years, and as fans of The Block they’re keen to give it a crack themselves.
Courtney & Grant NSW
Courtney is 32, and an event account manager and furniture designer.
Grant is a 30-year-old landscape development manager, which he hopes will give him an advantage in the later stages of The Block.
The couple have been married for three years and feel that being on The Block now, before they have kids, is the perfect time.
Ricky & Haydn VIC
Best friends for 20 years, these two are almost like brothers.
Ricky is a 34-year-old plumber, so he’s used to being on the tools and getting things done. Being on The Block is a dream come true for him.
Haydn is a 37-year-old IT manager whose wife Chelsea is eight-and-a-half-months pregnant when the boys start on The Block, so there will be a Block baby!
Jesse & Paige WA
This couple is the youngest on the show and they’re planning on getting married at the end of this year.
Carpenter Jesse is 24 and, having worked on plenty of big projects, he knows what it takes to build a luxury home.
Paige is 27, and a claims specialist who isn’t afraid to speak her mind.
Kristian & Mimi SA
Kristian is 31 and an electrician who wants to start his own business one day.
He’s married to 28-year-old restaurant manager Mimi, who works at her family’s Vietnamese restaurant.
The couple’s spectacular wedding ceremony took place in Adelaide in November 2023 and went viral on TikTok.
They’re bringing their strong work ethic to The Block this season.
