The twelfth season of the Argentine version of the television reality show Gran Hermano was announced on 3 July 2024 by Telefe, with Santiago del Moro continuing as the show's host.[1]
The show follows a group of contestants (known as HouseGuests), who live in a house together while being constantly filmed and having no communication with the outside world as they compete to win a grand prize. Each week, the HouseGuests compete in a Head of Household (HoH) competition which gives them immunity from nominations and the power to save one of the nominees up for eviction. On eviction night, the audience votes to evict one of the nominees.[2]
The season premiered on 2 December 2024,[3] and concluded on 24 June 2025.[4] It is the third continuous season to air on Telefe after making its return to the network in 2022.[5] On 22 June 2025, Gran Hermano was renewed by Telefe for a thirteenth season.[6]
Santiago Algorta was crowned the winner of the season, with Ulises Apóstolo finishing as runner-up and Luz Tito in third place.[7]

Summarize
Perspective
The show follows a group of contestants, known as HouseGuests, who live inside a custom-built house outfitted with cameras and microphones recording their every move 24 hours a day.[8] The HouseGuests are sequestered with no contact with the outside world. During their stay, the HouseGuests share their thoughts on their day-to-day lives inside the house in a private room known as the Diary Room. Each week, the HouseGuests compete in competitions to win power and safety inside the house. At the start of each week, the HouseGuests compete in a Head of Household (abbreviated as "HOH") competition. The winner of the HoH competition is immune from eviction and selects another HouseGuest to be saved for eviction. On eviction night, the audience vote to evict one of the nominees, and the nominee with the most votes is evicted from the house.[2]
Format changes and additions
Head of Household Super Powers
Beginning this season, the HouseGuest that wins the HoH competition, gets series of Super Powers to use during the week.[9]
The voided votes
From week 2 onwards, the last evicted HouseGuest has the power to void any of the remaining HouseGuests' votes before they nominate in the Nominations Gala.[10]
The Kiosk
This season, Gran Hermano installed a kiosk where HouseGuests use for special prizes every week.
Red Phone
Starting in Week 6, Gran Hermano enabled the red phone. Whoever answered the phone would receive positive or negative information. The HouseGuests must answer the phone without being able to repeat it during the day and if the phone is not answered before five rings the whole house would be punished.[11]
Repechage
In Week 6, after Andrea walked from the game for health reasons, it was announced that a repechage would take place among the first seven evictees during Week 7. As Keila was ejected from the game, she was ineligible to take part in the repechage.[12] In Week 9, it was announced that the second repechage would take place during Week 10. The second repechage had two stages with the three HouseGuests with the most votes from the public were eligible for re-entry. The HouseGuest with the most votes automatically returned to the house, while the HouseGuests who finished second and third faced a house vote for a final spot.[13] As Keila was ejected and Andrea left for health reasons, they were both ineligible to take part in the second repechage, and Petrona (who was evicted in Week 9) declined to take part in the second repechage.[14]
The Golden Ticket
As a result of Luca's ejection on Day 85, it was announced on that same day that the Golden Ticket returned. It would give one person (from the previously evicted HouseGuests or contestants from previous seasons) a chance enter the house to replace Luca.[15] On Day 87, it was announced that a second Golden Ticket would be given to another former HouseGuest out of the 32 former HouseGuests that chose to participate.
On Day 115, Juliana walked from the game and therefore another Golden Ticket was given to a former HouseGuest chosen by Gran Hermano. One day later, it was announced that Catalina Gorostidi (former season 11 HouseGuest) would return to the house.[16]

Voting history
Summarize
Perspective
HouseGuests nominate for two and one points, shown in descending order in the nomination box. The four or more HouseGuests with the most nomination points face the public vote.
HouseGuests can also use the Diary Room's Special Nomination, which gives three and two points instead.
From week 2 onwards, the last evicted HouseGuest has the power to void any one's nominations before they nominate in the Nominations Gala.
Starting in Week 23, the Power Nomination (fulminante in Spanish) was enabled by Gran Hermano, which consists of the automatic nomination of a HouseGuest, without the ability to be saved by the Head of Household. It could only be used once by each HouseGuest throughout those weeks. HouseGuests that use the Power Nomination are marked in bold.
