Season 5 of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune is set to premiere on October 7, 2024, continuing the beloved game show’s tradition of bringing celebrities together to compete for charity. In each show, celebrity participants spin the famous wheel, solve word puzzles, and win money for charitable causes.
The program has enthralled viewers since it debuted in 2021 and is back with its distinctive fusion of charity and entertainment.
With everyone looking forward to the upcoming season, one question is on everyone's minds: Who will be hosting Celebrity Wheel of Fortune? The man who knows the answer is Pat Sajak, who will host again this season. This will be his last appearance before he officially retires.
Pat Sajak’s return as host of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune
Celebrity Wheel of Fortune's season 5 will again be hosted by the iconic game show presenter Pat Sajak. Even though Sajak declared he was retiring earlier this year, he will return to the limelight to host the last season and present the celebrity version of the game show.

After Sajak's official retirement from the original Wheel of Fortune series in June 2023, after an incredible 41-year run, the decision was made to have him return for this season.
Vanna White, his longtime co-host, is still involved with the show, so the comfortable relationship between the two is preserved for this celebrity edition.
Sajak's retirement and final season
An era in television ended when Pat Sajak announced his departure from Wheel of Fortune. Fans and coworkers alike responded differently to Sajak's retirement after he hosted almost 8,000 programs over 41 years. However, he decided to retire because he wanted to depart the program on his terms.
In an interview with his daughter in the lead-up to his final episode of Wheel of Fortune in June 2023, Sajak stated:
"I’d rather leave a couple years too early than a couple years too late... I’m looking forward to whatever’s ahead."
Over the years, Sajak has steadfastly committed to keeping Wheel of Fortune a family-friendly show. In his farewell episode on the original series, he reflected on his time as host, stating that it was an "incredible privilege" to be invited into viewers' homes night after night.
This season is a big deal for the show and its viewers because the network marks it as Sajak's "final spin" as the host. Sajak will host the entire season of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, meaning his final episode will undoubtedly be remembered even if it hasn't been taped.
More than simply marking the end of an era, Pat Sajak's farewell season on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune celebrates his extraordinary career. His return to host the fifth season is a worthy sendoff to a television icon who has had a lasting impact on the business.
Fans can see the pinnacle of Sajak's career as a game show presenter and watch celebrities battle for charity.
Celebrity Wheel of Fortune season 5 will premiere on ABC on October 7, 2024. The show will air on Mondays, with 8 PM ET/PT episodes available. For those who miss the live broadcast, episodes will also be available for streaming on ABC’s official website and the ABC app the following day.
Additionally, you can catch up on episodes through Hulu, which will be uploaded shortly after they air. Be sure to watch Pat Sajak’s final season as the host of this star-studded game show.
