Have you ever watched the Race Across the World programme and wondered what it would be like to take part?

Well now you can!

On a limited budget and away from the luxuries of modern technology and conveniences, those selected will experience life in some of the world’s most beautiful and remote locations.
Navigating their way across thousands of miles, they will travel through spectacular scenery and dynamic cities, visit ancient wonders, learn local customs, and take part in time-honoured traditions.

But the physical journey is only half of the story…

As they travel the world, they may end up learning more about themselves - and each other - than anything else. Maybe they’re looking to change something in their life? Or are keen to share the journey with someone special like a family member, best friend, or someone they’ve lost touch with. They may even have a very personal reason for wanting to explore a particular part of the world.

Check out BBC's Casting Call today: https://www.bbc.co.uk/showsandtours/take-part/race-across-the-world-series3
Closing date: 29th March 2026. Terms and Conditions apply.
