‘Alone’ Sets June 2026 Premiere Date for ‘World Championship’ Season 13
The world’s toughest survival show is returning for its 13th season, and this time around, there’s a twist.
‘Alone’ Season 13 premieres June 17
Alone Season 13 premieres June 17 on The History Channel. For the first time in franchise history, the series is bringing together 10 skilled survivalists from around the world for a “world championship” season.
Participants – who hail from the U.S., Canada, Portugal, and other countries – will be dropped inside Canada’s Arctic Circle. They’ll have just 10 tools to help them survive, along with the camera gear they need to document their experience. As winter descends, the contestants will battle against frigid temperatures, mind-bending isolation, and threatening predators (the trailer teases an encounter with a grizzly bear) as they struggle to survive in the wild. The person who lasts the longest goes home with a life-changing $500,000, as well as the title of the first-ever Alone world champion.
