After the new edition premieres, CBS will air a Thursday broadcast on June 28 from 9-10PM ET/PT, followed by a Sunday broadcast on July 1 from 8-9PM ET/PT.
Beginning on Wednesday, July 4, Big Brother will move to 9PM ET/PT for the remainder of its Wednesday-night run.
CBS made the announcement when unveiling the network's Summer 2018 schedule.
Big Brother will continue to follow a group of people living together in a house outfitted with 94 HD cameras and more than 113 microphones, recording their every move 24 hours a day.
Each week, someone will be voted out of the house, with the last remaining houseguest winning the grand prize of $500,000.
Last season, Big Brother 19 crowned Josh Martinez the champion in a 5-4 jury vote against returning BB18 runner-up Paul Abrahamian.
Earlier this year, CBS also aired its first-ever Celebrity Big Brother edition, which ended with the celebrity cast voting for actress Marissa Jaret Winokur its winner. The series has been renewed for a second season.
