The Great Celebrity Bake Off 2026
The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer returns to Channel 4 this spring, bringing a brand-new line-up of famous faces into the iconic tent—alongside a fresh guest judge ready to deliver their verdicts.
This year’s celebrity bakers represent an eclectic mix of music, television, comedy, and digital culture. Among those stepping up to the challenge are pop sensation JoJo Siwa, entrepreneur Molly-Mae Hague, and broadcaster Vicky Pattison. Radio 2 Breakfast host Scott Mills joins the line-up, alongside singer-songwriter Rag’n’Bone Man (Rory Graham), actor Emmett J. Scanlan, and JLS star Aston Merrygold.
The tent also welcomes familiar faces from across entertainment, including Edith Bowman, Ralf Little, Richard Herring, Joe Wilkinson, Babatunde Aleshe, Rose Matafeo, Judi Love, and Tom Davis. They are joined by Mark Wright, Nella Rose, Mutya Buena, Jon Richardson, and Rose Ayling-Ellis, as well as Sam Thompson, Roisin Conaty, Alex Brooker, and Ambika Mod.
Each episode sees these celebrities swap their usual roles for aprons as they tackle the show’s classic trio of challenges: the Signature, Technical, and Showstopper. Under pressure, they must balance creativity with precision, all while trying to impress the judges and avoid the dreaded soggy bottom.
By the end of each episode, only one contestant will rise above the rest to be crowned Star Baker—proving that, for one week at least, they have what it takes to shine in Britain’s most famous baking tent.
