Following previous seasons that captured the hearts of viewers nationwide by celebrating the unique dynamics of Mzansi households, the upcoming instalment promises to turn up the dial on competitive spirit, culture, and pure family entertainment.
The concept: Where family vibe meets ultimate competition
At its core, Dlala Wethu is designed to put domestic teamwork, generational understanding, and pure street smarts to the ultimate test. The show’s winning concept brings two different South African families head-to-head in a series of hilarious physical challenges, trivia rounds, and cultural showdowns.
Rather than just testing general knowledge, the format highlights the rich traditions, inside jokes, and unforgettable personalities that make local families so unique.
From testing how well parents understand youth culture to seeing how youth handle traditional household wisdom, the competition bridges generational divides while keeping studio audiences and viewers at home thoroughly entertained.

Looking back at past seasons and Barbara Moagi’s electric energy
Building on the success of its previous outings, Dlala Wethu has firmly established itself as a staple of feel-good local television.

A massive part of the show’s enduring charm lies in its dynamic presenter, Barbara Moagi. Known for her quick wit, warmth, and infectious energy, Moagi effortlessly steers the action as the ultimate host.
Acting as both referee and hype-woman, she draws out the natural banter, playful household rivalries, and heartfelt emotional moments that define the show’s signature appeal.
What to expect from the new season
As the show returns to Wethu+ this November, producers have teased an even bigger and bolder season. Fans can expect refreshed game modules, higher stakes, and surprise celebrity family appearances that add an extra layer of excitement.
With production values dialled up and casting featuring some of the most eccentric, lovable families from across the country, the new season of Dlala Wethu is set to cement its legacy as Mzansi’s ultimate family face-off.
Get ready for plenty of laughs, dramatic comebacks, and unforgettable television moments when it premieres this coming November.
