I'm a Celebrity 2020 is what we've all been waiting for on ITV this year but the big event comes in the form of the I'm A Celeb final - so when is it on and why is it finishing early?

I’m A Celeb 2020 is back on our screens with a brand new line-up, a fresh location and whole new spin on those Bushtucker trials thanks to coronavirus, meaning the show is being filmed in the UK for the first time ever.

That means, this year, the winner will be crowned King or Queen of the Castle, rather than of the jungle, in the all-important I'm A Celebrity 2020 final. So when is it on?

As the ITV series reaches past the halfway point with Ant and Dec, here's the important I'm a Celebrity final date for your TV diaries and the time it's on:

When is the I’m A Celebrity 2020 final?

The I’m A Celeb final will take place on Friday 4th December, making the series two days shorter than its usual run time when the show typically airs in Australia.

The I'm A Celeb final will be on at its usual time and will run for a little over an hour and a half.

Why is I'm A Celebrity finishing early?

I'm A Celebrity is finishing early for the first time in the series' history and the reason why is thought to be due to the colder weather conditions contestants are facing in Wales this time around.

The show will wrap on a Friday instead of the usual Sunday, in a string of series' firsts for I'm A Celeb this year.

Until the final on 4 December, one celebrity will leave the castle every night before king or queen of the castle is decided.
