Look, it’s not rocket science. The show always finishes on a Sunday to give you a perfect end-of-weekend treat. Plus, the production team needs to pack up all those creepy critters and CGI snakes before the Australian summer gets too sweaty. So, mark December 7th in your calendar with a giant “JUNGLE CORONATION” sticker.
If you’re a super-fan, you might be wondering about the spin-off show, I’m a Celebrity: The Unpacked. Good news: that usually finishes on the same night, but slightly later. It’s basically the after-party where everyone admits they actually missed their smartphones more than their families. Relatable, right?

What to Expect in the Final Few Days
In the week leading up to the finale, things get predictably chaotic. The camp is down to the final four or five, the food rations are basically a single grain of rice, and the trials get gnarly. Expect at least one contestant to have a last-minute meltdown over a spider. It’s tradition.
The final three will be grilled by Ant and Dec in that heart-wrenching “why are you here?” chat. Brace yourself for answers like “to prove I’m more than just a reality star” or “for my nan.” If you don’t shed a single tear, are you even human? I’m not crying, you’re crying.
