The Amazing Race Australia 6 (also promoted as The Amazing Race: Around the World[1]) is the sixth season of The Amazing Race Australia, an Australian reality competition show based on the American series The Amazing Race and the third instalment of Network 10's iteration of the show. The season featured twenty teams of two, each with a pre-existing relationship, in a race around the world to win the grand prize of A$250,000 and two new cars (an Isuzu D-MAX and an Isuzu MU-X).[2] Beau Ryan returned as the regular host, with presenter Scott Tweedie guest hosting for episodes 8–11 after Ryan caught COVID-19 during filming. After the previous season was set in Australia due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this season returned to the standard travel format, visited six continents and seven countries and travelled over 55,000 kilometres (34,000 mi) during twenty-one legs. Starting in Melbourne and Sydney, racers travelled through Morocco, Greece, Turkey, Colombia, Belize, Mexico before returning to Australia, travelling through Western Australia and finishing in Broome. New twists introduced in this season include a split-city start, a no-switch Detour and an elimination during a no-rest leg. The season premiered on 29 August 2022,[3] with the finale airing on 9 October 2022.
Married couple Heath Curry & Toni Hilland were the winners of this season, while church friends Angel Williams and Frankie Vaaua finished in second place and newlywed teachers Kelly and Georgia Baildon finished in third place.
