Production

edit

On 28 October 2015, Nine renewed the series for a twelfth season.[2] Since 2013, the Nine Network has aired two seasons of the show each year. In 2016, however, only one season aired, and it did not air until the last quarter of 2016.[3] It will once again be set in Melbourne.[3] On December 27, 2015, Frank Valentic, teased a video saying that there are rumours of The Block going to Greville Street, Prahran.[4]

On 18 February 2016, it was reported that The Block producers bought an old heritage listed soap factory for $5 million at 164 Ingles St, Port Melbourne,[5]

Filming for the season began on 26 May 2016.[6] The Block auctions (or Block-tions) for the apartments were held on Saturday, 12 November 2016.[7]

This Art Deco heritage building is located at 164 Ingles St and it is an old soap factory in Port Melbourne.
