The eleventh season of The Bachelor Australia, known as The Bachelors, premiered on 3 December 2023.[1] For the second consecutive season, there are three Bachelors: Ben Waddell, a 36-year-old international model and environmentalist from Melbourne, Victoria; Luke Bateman, a 28-year-old lumberjack and former NRL player from Toowoomba, Queensland; and Wesley Senna Cortes, a 33-year-old theology student and marketing & sales manager from Brazil, living in Sydney, New South Wales.[2]
This season is the first in the series to have been filmed in Melbourne, with production moving from the previous season's location on the Gold Coast in Queensland.[3] Selected episodes were released 24 hours prior to broadcast, on video on demand streaming service 10Play, to reach younger audiences and increase the platform's viewership.[4]
