The nineteenth season of Australian reality television series The Block premiered on 6 August 2023 on the Nine Network.

In September 2022, it was reported Nine had bought five classic brick homes in Charming Street, Hampton East, Victoria, for an estimated amount of $14.3 million.

For the first time in any season, the contestants were given the entire renovation schedule for the duration of the build on day 1.
