Season chronology

Survivor: David vs. Goliath is the 37th season of the American competitive reality television series Survivor. Hosted by Jeff Probst and broadcast by CBS between September 26 and December 19, 2018, the season featured 20 contestants originally divided into two tribes of ten inspired by the biblical figures David and Goliath: the "David" tribe composed of underdogs who have had to overcome adversity throughout their lives, and the "Goliath" tribe consisting of ten overachievers who have leveraged their advantages to succeed in their respective fields. The tribes were switched on day 10 into three tribes of five selected by a random draw; "Jabeni", "Tiva", and "Vuku". On day 19, they merged into a single tribe, "Kalokalo", for the remainder of the game. Filming took place in the Mamanuca Islands of Fiji between March 29 and May 6, 2018, making it the sixth season of Survivor to film in Fiji. Due to Severe Tropical Cyclone Keni striking during the season's filming, the castaways and crew were evacuated for two days, pausing the game.

After 39 days, Nick Wilson was named the Sole Survivor, defeating fellow finalists Mike White and Angelina Keeley in a 7–3–0 jury vote and winning a prize of US$1,000,000. The season garnered widespread acclaim from critics and audiences alike due to the cast, theme and gameplay. It is generally regarded as one of the show's greatest seasons.
