In the business-themed reality series Shark Tank, entrepreneurs get the opportunity to appeal to self-made tycoon “sharks” for the possibility of investment. Should the entrepreneurs emerge victorious, the investment offers the chance to expand their businesses to previously unimagined heights. So, when can you expect to see the Shark Tank season 16 premiere on ABC? Keep reading for that information and more!

Shark Tank’s panel of regular investors features Barbara Corcoran, Mark Cuban, Lori Greiner, Robert Herjavec, Daymond John, and Kevin O’Leary. However, it’s worth noting that Cuban has stated that Shark Tank season 16 will be his final outing on the show’s shark roster.

The “handshake deals” that successful contestants reach with the sharks are not a guarentee. However, succeeding on the show can indeed come with significant benefits. Of all the businesses to appear on Shark Tank, as of 2019, Scrub Daddy Inc. was ranked as one a top 5 grossing company for all of those to appear on the show since its inception.

In May 2024, ABC renewed the series for a new season. The Shark Tank season 16 premiere will debut on ABC on October 18, 2024. Will you be watching when it arrives?
