This is the third consecutive special season to air, following All In and 737, but this season still uses the same batch format as with the previous season, with celebrities, teens, and adults being divided into three batches. However, an additional twist was added where all finalists of each batch will then return in the fourth and final batch to compete for a spot in the final. This would later serve as the foundation for the formats of Otso and Kumunity 10, though the former would not feature celebrities like 737 and Kumunity 10.
This season was the first to reach the 200-day mark. It was later surpassed by Otso by 33 days, as well as by Kumunity 10, with this season trailing by only nine.
Developments
The show announced its seventh season on March 30, 2016. On April 3, a Facebook page about Pinoy Big Brother posted a photo of the house and tells its audience to share it for a chance to be an official housemate. The Big Brother staff immediately disowned the promo as fake and reminds its social media followers to always verify their sources.[4][5]
The official announcement for Lucky Season 7 aired on June 29.[6] On July 2, 2016, during the airing of It's Showtime, Big Brother announced that the season will kick off with the entry of celebrity housemates.[7] Other celebrity housemates were announced in various programs in the succeeding days.

For three weeks, during the stay of the celebrity housemates, a special show entitled PBB: Mga Kwento ng Celebrity Housemates (then formerly known as PBB Vietnam: Mga Kwento ng Celebrity Housemates when the latter was still in Vietnam) aired. It was then renamed to PBB: Mga Kwento ng Teen Housemates upon the arrival of the teen housemates, and PBB: Mga Kwento ng Housemates ni Kuya upon the teen and regular housemates lived in one house, and then renamed as PBB: Mga Kwento ng Dream Team ni Kuya when the Dream Team housemates entered.

Overview
Like 737, this season is divided into batches. However a celebrity batch is added along with the teen and adult batches. The show kicked off with the celebrities. The teen housemates entered next, and the adults to follow last.
Episode format
For the celebrity batch, housemates have entered a week before the actual premiere, and so the broadcast for these episodes are delayed as opposed to the previous-day format that had been present since the first season. Since the show does not display a day number for each episode, it is assumed that events had happened a week from the actual air date. It is possible that the length of stay of the celebrity housemates is shorter than what is being aired. On July 30, 2016, the celebrity housemates returned to the Philippines to enter the Pinoy Big Brother House, and so the previous-day format returns.
For the first three weeks of the season, the show only aired on weekdays due to the last few episodes of We Love OPM. After their stint in Vietnam, their format went back to air episodes 7 days a week.
Hosts
Toni Gonzaga, Bianca Gonzalez and Robi Domingo reprised their roles as hosts. Mariel Rodriguez returned as host after her absence since Teen Clash 2010.[18][19] During the season, Toni Gonzaga and Mariel Rodriguez took a maternity leave due to pregnancy. However, Gonzaga returned as a regular host when the Dream Team housemates entered the house. Maymay Entrata was the winner of this season.[2]

They returned to the Pinoy Big Brother House on July 30; note that the show's official website designated the day they have returned as Day 17.[31]
Celebrities
On Day 0, Jinri, JK, McCoy, Nikko, and Yassi were introduced as the first five celebrity housemates. As part of the season's twist, they were flown to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam on Day 1; however, only McCoy, Nikko and Yassi were only able to depart as Jinri, JK and Hideo (only introduced later in TV Patrol) had visa and immigration card issues.[8] After arriving in Vietnam, McCoy, Nikko and Yassi then entered the Vietnamese Big Brother House along with Chacha, Elisse and Nonong (only introduced later in TV Patrol).[20] Two Vietnamese actors and Thuy entered the House after finishing a task in the outside world; they pretended that they were the current occupants and were the last three housemates of Big Brother Vietnam. On Day 2, Jinri, JK and Hideo were able to resolve the issues and were able to fly to Vietnam;[26] the three entered the House that morning, while being chained and blindfolded. Due to this, the housemates had to unchain them within 30 minutes using the correct 3 keys among the 77 keys scattered around the House; they were successful.[32] On Day 3, Thuy returned; in order to secure her spot as a regular housemate, she was tasked to pretend that she had won Big Brother Vietnam, that she has to temporarily stay as a house guest, and that she has to help them in their special task.[33]
On Day 10, Hideo, Jinri, Yassi and JK were nominated.[34][35] On Day 11, Chacha decided to voluntarily exit during their first eviction night; note that Hideo was supposedly the one to exit the House after having the poorest performance in the Ligtask challenge.[36][37][38]

By the afternoon, after more than two weeks in Vietnam, Big Brother announced that they will be leaving the Vietnamese Big Brother House and will return to the Philippines.[41]
On Day 17, with the exception of JK, the celebrity housemates entered the Pinoy Big Brother House. Later on, Big Brother revealed that only two of them dubbed as Lucky Stars will be able to continue their journey to reach the finale; he also told them that they will encounter many challenges determined by picking a ball among the other Bola ng Kapalaran placed inside a Big Tambiola. Yassi was tasked to choose the first ball; their first task was that they were only allowed to bring one luggage from eight luggage they have; they picked Nonong's luggage. After the entry of the housemates, disguised as a hooded face ninja, Jerome Ponce entered the House as a house guest in order to assist Big Brother in the housemates' challenges and to fix the thing between him and Elisse.[42][43] On Day 18, Elisse picked the second ball which showed an image of a basket; the image would mean that they will get a basket of eggs, sweet potatoes and bitter gourds as their food. They had to ration it until Big Brother gives them another set of food supplies. Meanwhile, McCoy was informed by Big Brother that the hooded face ninja was Jerome and that he has to help bring him to their bedroom without the female housemates noticing them; he was allowed to tell the task and ask for help with the other male housemates.[44][45]
On Day 19, McCoy and the other male housemates continued their task in hiding Jerome from the females. Later that day, the female housemates were blind-folded for 4 hours; this gave Jerome the opportunity to freely roam the House. JK returned to the House; he was introduced by Big Brother to Jerome in the Confession Room. He was also told about the male housemates' task. Later on, the still blind-folded female housemates entered the Confession Room one by one; they were tasked to identify JK and Jerome.[46] Each of the female housemates perfectly identified JK; while Jerome was only identified by Elisse.[47] Due to this, JK was able to enter the House; Jerome, who was not able to enter the House, was given the chance to write a letter to Elisse. After Elisse read the letter, she was given the decision whether she would be willing to talk with him. In the early hours of Day 20, she decided to talk and both were able to do so. Their conversation led to the closure to their failed relationship.[48][49] On Day 22, Jinri won one of the two Lucky Stars granting her to continue in hopes of becoming the big winner of this season. On Day 23, McCoy & Nikko later were revealed to get the last Lucky Star and able to continue with Jinri. The non-finalist celebrity housemates later exited the House.

The Big Night
The Big Night for this season was held at the Alonte Sports Arena in Biñan, Laguna from March 4–5, 2017, (Days 234 & 235).
On Day 234, before going to the venue, the housemates were given a surprise interview by the hosts of It's Showtime. They were transported into a truck that drove them into the venue, blindfolded. An opening production number was spearheaded by most of the Lucky Ex-housemates, together with Alex Gonzaga (the show's longest-staying houseguest), Tommy Esguerra (737 2nd Big Placer) and Big Winners Daniel Matsunaga and Miho Nishida, which were held inside the arena and a stage set outside. After which, Big Brother gave his final message to his Lucky 7, who were situated in a green room depicting an augmented reality of a castle hall in an interdimensional plane (the first in the season to do so) and a skit was performed by the contestants of Your Face Sounds Familiar Kids, Niño Muhlach, together with mainstay hosts Toni Gonzaga and Robi Domingo, highlighting some of the best moments of the show's longest edition.
Just like the 737 season, the seven-day open voting was closed and the first set of announcements were made. Cora Waddell, Nikko Natividad & McCoy de Leon, and Tanner Mata were named the 7th to 5th Lucky Big Placers respectively. The voting tally ended up very narrow with the top-gainer edging the closest contender less than one percent (0.62% to be exact). It was reset to zero after they announced the Dream Team Big 4 and voting will open tomorrow night.
The table shows the final tally of votes prior to the first set of announcements and note that the codes per housemate reflect that they are a Lucky Housemate (L, U, C, K, Y, H, M)

On Day 235, the show began with a production number with Gonzaga. Like yesterday, the Lucky Big 4 were then transported on separated vehicles to the venue. After this, the voting lines were re-opened and voting for the Big Winner was done in a span of 30 minutes (with the arrangement of the housemates changed to L, U, C, and K). While this is ongoing, the Lucky Big 4 were tasked to ask questions to their respective housemates, highlighting some of the important moments in the season. After that, the voting lines were then closed and two events happened after: an interview with the 5th-7th Lucky Big Placers and a production number from 737 alumnus Zeus Collins, 737 4th Big Placer Dawn Chang, Lucky 7 celebrity housemate Yassi Pressman and the show's first Teen Big Winner Kim Chiu.
Chiu and Garcia then accompanied Gonzaga in announcing the 4th and 3rd Big Placers respectively, with Edward Barber and Yong Muhajil garnering those placings. After which, the final 2 were named and the announcements for their fate were made with the director of the show and head of TV production Lauren Dyogi, and head of broadcast Cory Vidanes. Kisses Delavin was named the 2nd Big Placer while Maymay Entrata was announced the 14th Big Winner of the show.
Mariel Rodriguez was noticeably absent in the show due to her maternity leave. The table below shows the final breakdown of the votes.
