The holiday special filled with the most challenging and unpredictable holiday-themed competitions will pit BB legends against each other as they face a new game with an all-new set of rules.”

It will take place over two weeks with six “action-packed holiday-themed episodes.” Each episode with feature three competitions, ending in “Santa’s Showdown,” during which one player will be sent home. The finale will air on Dec. 21 at 8 p.m. ET.
The cast will be guided by the “Magical Elves”: Derek Xiao from Season 23, Tiffany Mitchell from Season 23 and Jordan Lloyd from Season 11 and 13.
