Ty Pennington Teases ‘Rock the Block’ Season 7
Pennington is building excitement for “Rock the Block” season 7, promising high stakes and “bold” teams.
“‘Rock the Block’ is back, and we’re going all in Vegas style with a bold new lineup of teams,” he shared in a statement. “The stakes are higher than ever, and these duos are betting on great design in hopes of hitting the renovation jackpot.”
On March 3, HGTV announced the details of “Rock the Block” season 7. The show, which takes place in Vegas, premieres on April 13 with a two-hour episode.
Four teams will compete, renovating identical newly built homes on a cul-de-sac over seven weeks with a $275,000 budget.
This time, the duos will consist of one celebrity paired with an HGTV star. The team with the highest appraised property value after the renovations wins the competition.
HGTV’s official show synopsis explains: “With the stakes at an all-time high, each team will have just seven weeks and a budget of $275,000 to transform identical cul-de-sac builds boasting one-level living, private courtyards, multi-generational suites and RV garages into luxurious Sin City homes that reflect their signature vision and stunning design style. The lucky team who earns the highest appraised property value will hit the jackpot, winning ‘Rock the Block’ bragging rights and a street named in their honor.”
