The Amazing Race Australia 1

The first series of The Amazing Race Australia started in Melbourne at the Melbourne Cricket Ground with a Roadblock sending racers up and down one of the stadium's six light towers.

Filming began on 5 November 2010 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne.[5] The season travelled across four continents, 11 countries and 23 cities.[6] Some of the countries visited during the series include Indonesia and Israel.[7] Indonesia was later visited in the nineteenth series of the original American version in October 2011, while Israel has never been visited by other version of The Amazing Race outside of Israel's own version.

During the Vietnam leg, all route markers were coloured yellow and green instead of yellow and red. This was done to avoid confusion with the former South Vietnamese national flag, which is also yellow and red. The route markers for the Vietnam leg were similar to those used in A Corrida Milionária, the Brazilian version of The Amazing Race.

Application deadline for the first series closed on 17 September 2010 (extended from 6 September 2010[8]) initially with the applicants required to be at least 18 years old with citizenship or permanent residency. However, due to insurance issues overseas, the minimum age for applicants was raised from 18 to 21 years of age.[9][10][11]

The cast included married fitness entrepreneurs, farmers, friends of Egyptian descent, models, Big W workmates and reunited sisters. Notably, Nathan, who teamed up with Tyler, is the boyfriend of 2006 Miss Australia, Erin McNaught.[12] Renae was also the runner up of Miss Universe Australia 2010.[6] Entrepreneurs Richard & Joey Marc are the authors of Please Mum, Don't Supersize Me![13] Ryot & Liberty are the brother and sister of the comedian Rebel Wilson.[14]

Dating couple Chris & Anastasia have since split up, although they deny that their relationship was negatively affected by television exposure.[15]

Nathan was a contestant on the second season of The Celebrity Apprentice Australia on the Nine Network, in which he came second losing to music guru Ian "Dicko" Dickson. In the final challenge, he raised $80,000 for his charity Epilepsy Australia.

Richard & Joey had a television show on Foxtel called Feel Good TV.[16]

After the 2011 edition, Mel Greig replaced Maude Garrett as a co-host of the Hot30 Countdown on the Today Radio Network, where she later gained international notoriety for her role in a controversial prank call to an English hospital, which was treating the Duchess of Cambridge for morning sickness.[17] Subsequently, she also appeared on the fourth season of The Celebrity Apprentice Australia.[18] She was eliminated in episode 8 and raised $10,000 for Endometriosis Australia.

Mo had a role on a Muslim sketch comedy show on SBS called Legally Brown.

In 2019, Sam Schoers competed in the sixth season of Australian Survivor. She was eliminated on Day 16 and finished in 18th place.[19]

The Amazing Race Australia is sponsored by Canon, National Australia Bank, Honda, Vodafone and Gloria Jean's.[20] The Amazing Race Australia also had an app for Android, iPhone and Blackberry where the user could track the teams and watch full episodes.
