The Block 2025 was filmed right here in Daylesford!
While the Blockheads have wrapped up their builds, you can come and experience the magic of our region now. Immerse yourself in the charm that captivated the show’s creators, from our famous mineral springs to local eateries and charming shops.
We loved seeing contestants Han & Can win the Ensuite Bathroom week on The Block, where they were rewarded with an unforgettable night at Sky High Mount Franklin and a sensational meal at the exquisite Sault Restaurant.
Now with that Daylesford magic on television, what better time to come and experience it for yourself?
