On your mark. Get set. BAKE! Fall has finally arrived which means it’s time to return to the tent for a new season of our favorite guilty pleasure showThe Great British Baking Show!

This fall, Netflix will once again become home to the new season of the UK’s beloved baking competition series as a new group of amateur bakers come together to showcase their skills in The Great British Baking Show tent.

Always a favorite among viewers, this season promises to bring yet another wave of amazing bakes as the bakers tackle new challenges in hopes of wowing the judges and making it to the finale. Just what awaits us this season? We’ve rounded up everything there is to know about the new season below to help you get ready for the newest season of The Great British Baking Show coming to Netflix this fall!

What season is The Great British Baking Show on?

If you were to read the Netflix promotional materials, you might think The Great British Baking Show is entering its tenth season as Netflix is promoting the upcoming season as Collection 10. However, The Great British Baking Show is actually entering its thirteenth season meaning the new season debuting this fall is season 13 — not season 10.

The reason for this discrepancy is due to the fact that the show’s early seasons are not available to US viewers, which has resulted in later seasons being billed as varying collections stateside.

Great British Baking Show season 13 Netflix premiere date

The new season of The Great British Baking Show will premiere on Friday, Sept. 16, 2022, which is three days after the new season premieres in the UK. As part of a deal struck up between Netflix and the studio behind the series, Netflix is able to stream new episodes of the show just days after their UK broadcast rather than making fans in the US wait months to enjoy the new season.

Great British Baking Show season 13 judges

Returning to the tent to judge this season’s amateur bakers are judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith. This marks the sixth season the pair have served as judges together on the series since season 8 when Leith joined the series following the departure of original judge Mary Berry.

Great British Baking Show season 13 hosts

Once again returning to host the series are Noel Fielding and Matt Lucas. Fielding first joined the series as host in season 8 following the departures of original hosts Sue Perkins and Mel Giedroyc. He was later joined by Lucas in season 11 following the departure of his former co-host, Sandi Toksvig.
