Shark Week is making a splash this year, returning a bit later than usual. Kicking off on Sunday, July 20, and airing nightly through Saturday, July 26, Shark Week 2025 offers an exciting opportunity to cool off indoors with thrilling shark content from the comfort of your couch, as reported by Yahoo! Entertainment.
Exciting Documentaries and Specials
The Discovery Channel’s iconic event will showcase brand-new documentaries and exciting specials every night at 8 PM Eastern. One major highlight of this year’s lineup is Dancing with Sharks, described as an “unprecedented” underwater dance competition featuring divers teaming up with real sharks. This unique event will be hosted by Dancing with the Stars veteran Tom Bergeron.
Host for Shark Week 2025
As of now, no official host has been announced for Shark Week 2025. In past years, celebrities like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Jason Momoa, and John Cena have taken on the role, adding star power to the event.
