There were twenty six housemates this season and were living in the same house. The housemates were competing for US$300,000. This year, thirteen countries participated in the season. Each country had two representatives for them. Twelve of these countries were returning countries while the thirteenth country was new to the Big Brother Africa game. The twelve returning countries were Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe while the new country was Rwanda.

On Day 1, twenty six Housemates entered the House on launch night.

This season, a new task added was called the The Extravaganza. This occurred every Saturday night. The housemates were split into two teams that were chosen by the Head of House for the week.
