BINGE serves up the first look at new original series Deadliest Dinners Australia streaming September 9
BINGE today released the first look trailer for the adrenaline-fuelled new documentary series, Deadliest Dinners Australia, which is set to premiere on the DAZN entertainment streaming service on September 9 with new episodes dropping weekly.
The eight-part series follows Australian-born extreme adventurer, award-winning restaurateur and chef Mario Kalpou as he journeys across some of Australia’s wildest and most unforgiving landscapes in search of extraordinary ingredients.
Following the international success of Man Eats Wild and United Plates, Mario returns home with the same unwavering philosophy: food should be earned, understood and respected.
Mario Kalpou said: “For me, food has always been about far more than what’s on the plate. It’s about the people, the place and the journey it takes to get there. Deadliest Dinners is my most ambitious adventure yet, taking me into some of Australia’s most dangerous environments in search of extraordinary ingredients and unforgettable stories. I hope audiences finish every episode with a new appreciation for the wild places and incredible people behind every meal.”
In Deadliest Dinners Australia, Mario pushes his survival skills, experience and nerve to the ultimate test. From shark-filled waters and crocodile-infested rivers to remote cliff faces, tropical islands and the rugged Northern Territory outback, he ventures far beyond the supermarket in pursuit of Australia’s most remarkable ingredients. Each expedition demands local knowledge, meticulous preparation and the courage to face some of the country’s most dangerous environments.
Along the way, Mario teams up with guides, wilderness experts and Traditional Owners, whose knowledge helps him navigate unpredictable oceans, extreme heat, treacherous terrain and close encounters with Australia’s formidable wildlife.
Whether diving in great white shark territory, tracking a one-tonne buffalo, crossing crocodile-infested rivers or abseiling 70 metres down a sea cliff, Mario earns every ingredient before transforming it into an extraordinary meal cooked in the wild. Each episode is a celebration of adventure, survival and the connection between people, place and the food we share.
Deadliest Dinners Australia is an 8 x 60-minute series and is set to premiere exclusively on DAZN’s BINGE at 9am on September 9, 2026. Foxtel customers can also watch at 7:30pm on FOX8.
