Camp Orange is an Australian children's reality television show broadcast on Nickelodeon. The first season premiered in February 2005. The latest season, Camp Orange: Twisted Siblings, premiered on 27 June 2015.
The format has been adapted and produced for international markets, including Italy and more recently the UK. The later, which was filmed and produced in Australia, premiered on 22 July 2011 in the UK and Ireland.
The show stars teams of best friends, selected from thousands of video audition entries that kids send in from across Australia and New Zealand, vying for the outdoor adventure of a lifetime. They battle it out in messy physical challenges that test their wits and their teamwork skills in order to win prizes. Starting from season 5, contestants would vote at the end of each day for 'Champ Orange', the best and fairest. From season 9, 'Champ Orange' is voted for by the public.
The season teams were:
This is the first season to be hosted by Luke Ryan and Wyatt Nixon-Lloyd. There were four teams:
The winners of the Mega Challenge were The Wanna Beez (Brittany and Niall). The winners of Champ Orange were The Mighty Melbournians (Deon and Brody).
Season 7 was hosted by Luke and Wyatt. It was positioned as the grossest, slimiest and wrongest Camp Orange ever. This season, there were a few differences to previous seasons, including the first ever New Zealand team (The Awesome 2SUM), and a surprise fifth team (The Flip Sisters).
This season teams were:
The Flip Sisters arrived on the second day of Camp Orange as a surprise twist to the other contestants. The winners of Champ Orange were The Mighty Wood Ducks (Cooper and Jake).
Season 8 was hosted by Luke and Wyatt, and co-hosted by iCarly's Jennette McCurdy. This season pitted the girls' teams against boys' teams. Each team was led by a mentor, Wyatt (boys) and Jennette (girls). The season premiered on Tuesday, 26 June at 3:00 PM on Nickelodeon (Australia and New Zealand).
Teams featured in the season were:
The overall winners of the Camp Orange: Boys vs Girls were the girls' team (The Ballistic Belly-Buttons and The Grizzly Girls). The winners of Champ Orange were the Grizzly Girls (Monique and Giorgia).
Season 9 was hosted by Luke & Wyatt. For the first time, the show was filmed at Seaworld Australia on the Gold Coast.
