When does The Amazing Race Season 38 premiere?

An exact premiere date has not been announced yet, but the show will return in the fall of 2025. It was announced as part of CBS’ 2025-2026 programming slate. The show will be on Wednesdays from 9:30 to 11 p.m.

In 2023 and 2024, only one season of The Amazing Race aired each year. However, there have been plenty of times that two seasons of the show have aired in a calendar year in the past, so it looks like 2025 is returning to that schedule.

Who is in The Amazing Race Season 38 cast?

CBS has not confirmed the cast list for Season 38 yet, but it’s rumored to include former Big Brother cast members who are each paired up with a loved one. Make sure to check back for updates as the premiere date gets closer!
