Season 12 of The Masked Singer will premiere on Wednesday, September 25, at 8 PM ET (5 PM PT). There’s plenty to look forward to with all of season 11’s panelists returning. As with previous seasons, season 12 will feature themed nights which will include Barbie, 60s Night, and Miley Cyrus. Below, we’ll explain how to live stream The Masked Singer season 12 from anywhere.
You should note that we’ll only be recommending official sources. While this is an extremely popular show, we don’t recommend using any third-party streams. For a start, they tend to be extremely laggy, with low-resolution video, and to make matters worse, they’re often taken offline for copyright violation. There are plenty of ways to watch The Masked Singer season 12 online anyway, so there’s no reason to resort to unreliable, unauthorized streams.
The Masked Singer will only air on region-locked streaming services. This means that if you’re currently outside of North America, you’ll need a VPN to access your usual home services.
How to live stream The Masked Singer abroad with a VPN
Usually, streaming services find the user’s location by checking their IP address. When using a VPN, though, only the server’s IP address is visible. This means that by connecting to a server in the required country, you can access region-locked services from abroad. Confused? Take a look at our step-by-step guide below.
Here’s how to watch The Masked Singer season 12 live online from anywhere:
- First, sign up for a suitable VPN if you haven’t already. We recommend NordVPN although Surfshark and IPVanish are two great low-cost alternatives.
- Download and install the VPN app. Most providers offer apps for a wide range of platforms, so this should be easy enough.
- Connect to a VPN server in the appropriate country. You’ll need a US server to unblock FOX, for instance, or a Canadian server to stream CTV abroad.
- Visit your chosen service and sign in (or create an account if one is needed). Note that you may need to have a payment method linked to an address in the required country.
- Lastly, log in and try playing a video. It should play immediately, but if not, clear your browser’s cookies and refresh the page.
The Masked Singer will air live each week, so we recommend spending a few minutes making sure your VPN works as expected ahead of time. This approach ensures you won’t be blindsided by technical problems at the last second since you’ll have more than enough time to get help from your VPN’s customer support team.
How to watch The Masked Singer season 12 on US TV
Season 12 of The Masked Singer will air exclusively on FOX. With a cable TV subscription, you need only sign in using your cable provider details to watch. The good news is that there’s also a way to watch Fox cable-free. It’s available to stream via FuboTV ($79.99 USD/month), Hulu with Live TV ($76.99/month), and YouTube TV ($72.99/month).
Alternatively, you can just get a regular Hulu subscription ($7.99 per month) and catch new episodes the following day. This is significantly cheaper than watching live, and will likely be the best option for most people.
All of the services above are region-locked, so you’ll need a VPN to access them from outside the US. Haven’t decided which one to use yet? NordVPN includes a 30-day money-back guarantee, allowing you to stream The Masked Singer risk-free. If you’re unimpressed, just cancel within 30 days to get your money back.
Can I stream The Masked Singer season 12 abroad?
The Masked Singer remains highly popular and has international versions in several countries. Read on to find out how you can watch The Masked Singer where you live:
Canada
In Canada, CTV will broadcast The Masked Singer season 12 at the same time as it’s shown in the US. Although you can watch the most recent episode for free without signing in, you’ll need a cable TV subscription to view the live stream or any episodes that are more than a week old.
CTV is only available in Canada. If you’re currently abroad, you can access it as normal by connecting to one of your VPN’s Canadian servers.
UK
ITVX currently offers season 9 and season 10 episodes of The Masked Singer. This is good news because it’s free to watch. You need only sign up for a free account to watch content live or on-demand.
However, there is a British spinoff featuring Joel Dommett as presenter and Jonathan Ross, Mo Gilligan, Davina McCall, Rita Ora, and Mo Gilligan as panelists. There has already been five seasons of the show and you can stream it live and on-demand via ITVX.
ITVX is geo-restricted, so you’ll have to either be in the UK or connected to a British VPN server to watch The Masked Singer UK.

Australia
Australia isn’t showing season 12 of The Masked Singer either. However, there’s an Australian version with five seasons currently available for streaming. It’s presented by Osher Günsberg while the panelists are Mel B, Dave Hughes, and Chrissie Swan.
The Masked Singer Australia is available to watch on 10play. Note that while you have to create an account to stream content, this is very straightforward and should only take a minute. 10play is region-locked, so if you’re outside of Australia, you won’t be able to watch without a VPN and Australian IP address.
What can we expect from season 12 of The Masked Singer?
If there are any changes to the show’s format this season, they’ve been kept well under wraps. We do know, however, that all of the same panelists are returning. This includes Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg, Ken Jeong, Rita Ora, and Nick Cannon. Season 12 will feature 15 new masked contestants while themed nights include “Barbie”, “Sports Night”, and “Footloose”, among others.
