Season chronology
← Previous Season 2

Big Brother VIP Kosova 3, was the third season of Big Brother VIP Kosova , once again hosted by Alaudin Hamiti and Jonida Vokshi. ^[1] The season began airing on 18 October 2024 on Klan Kosova, and ended after 99 days on 24 January 2025. ^[2]

The viewers were able to watch the whole season live from the house in two live pay-per-view channels, Big Brother VIP Kosova 1 and Big Brother VIP Kosova 2, available on the Kosovan TV platform Artmotion, as well as on NimiTV and TVALB for the Kosovo-Albanian diaspora in Europe, the United States, and Canada. ^[3] The show is also broadcast in Albania on the TV platform Tring and, for the first time, on DigitAlb, which also broadcasts the Albanian version Big Brother VIP .

The two new opinionists for the prime shows were journalist Milaim Zeka and actress Olta Gixhari. ^[4] In the sixteenth prime show, season 2 housemate Santiana Maloku replaced Olta Gixhari who was temporarily away. ^[5] Diellza Daka was the new host for the third season of the spin-off show Big Talk Kosova , with season 2 housemates Edona James and Santiana Maloku, who were the two opinionists. ^[6]

On 24 January 2025, Drilon Rama was announced as the winner of the season, with Xheneta Fetahu as the runner-up. ^[7]

Production

In June 2024, presenter Alaudin Hamiti announced that the third season would begin on Klan Kosova, with further details to be revealed in September 2024. ^[8]

There were rumors that Jonida Vokshi might not return as the presenter for the third season, and that Alaudin Hamiti might co-host the show with Arbana Osmani, who has hosted the Albanian versions of Big Brother and Big Brother VIP . ^[9] Additionally, there was speculation that Arbana Osmani and singer Luiz Ejlli, the winner of Big Brother VIP Albania 2, would co-host the third season of Big Brother VIP Kosova. ^[10]

Rumors also circulated about potential new opinionists, with names like Luiz Ejlli, journalist Milaim Zeka, and TV presenter Einxhel Shkira being mentioned. ^[11] There was further speculation that Olsa Muhameti, former director and executive producer of Për'puthen and Hell's Kitchen Albania on Top Channel, might no longer be with Top Channel and instead join Klan Kosova as the executive producer for the third season of Big Brother VIP Kosova. ^[12]

On 5 September 2024, it was announced that Olsa Muhameti would be the new executive producer of the third season, replacing Yllka Sedllari Hamiti. ^[13] On 29 September 2024, in an interview for the show SOL on Klan Kosova, Muhameti revealed that the series would begin airing in early October 2024. ^[14] She also confirmed that Alaudin Hamiti would return as the presenter for the third season, a role he held the previous year. ^[15] On 7 October 2024, it was announced that Milaim Zeka would be one of the new opinionists. ^[16] On 13 October 2024, Alaudin Hamiti, in an interview for the show SOL on Klan Kosova, announced that Jonida Vokshi would continue to co-host the show with him. ^[17] On 14 October 2024, Klan Kosova confirmed Olta Gixhari as the second opinionist. ^[18]

The spin-off show Big Talk Kosova returned for its third season. On 13 October 2024, it was announced that Diellza Daka would be the new host of the show. ^[19]

Housemates

On Day 1, twenty housemates entered the house during the launch. ^[20] On Day 71, following the eviction of Laurent Krasniqi & Fitim Sylejmani, the duo was split up and Big Brother gave the opportunity to enter the house as a single housemate. ^[21] Laurent did not want to return, but Fitim wanted to return on the house. Then a televoting opened and the viewers decided if Fitim would return or would not return. The public decided to return Fitim on the house and play as an individual housemate. ^[22] Besart "Gjesti" Kelmendi, one day after his eviction, went on to become a housemate on the fourth season of Big Brother VIP in Albania. ^[23]
