Maica Benedicto Wins Supervivientes 2026

Her 59.25% public vote victory secures the €200,000 prize after a finale decided by live app voting and a string of intense physical duels.

Overview

  • The final opened with Alvar Seguí winning the last leader collar and nominating Maica Benedicto, José Manuel Soto and Alba Paul, with the first public televote eliminating Soto.
  • Alba won the opening challenge to advance, Alvar narrowly beat Maica in a head-to-head duel, and Alba then defeated Alvar in a long multi-discipline test described by organisers as the programme's toughest.
  • A subsequent audience televote between Maica and Alvar sent Alvar through as the third finalist and left Maica facing Alba in the final public vote.
  • The live vote gave Maica 59.25% against Alba's 40.75%, Maica received the €200,000 prize on air and reacted with visible emotion while thanking viewers.
  • The show was presented by Jorge Javier Vázquez and reunited the season's contestants and the previous winner on stage, and Maica said she will invest the prize in launching a personal brand and making a down payment on a home in Madrid; the final also marked the first time since 2011 that two women competed for the title.
