Later in the season, the show will give up a night for election results. . Check out the full schedule below, including days, dates and times.
As always, the schedule is a work in progress. Keep checking back for updates!
The Blind Auditions – NEW TWIST! Coach Replay
Each coach gets one BLOCK during the Blind Auditions, which allows them to keep a specific coach from nabbing an artist. As typical of fall seasons, the Blinds end with a Top 56 (14 per team). The season features new coaches Snoop Dogg and Michael Buble, plus veterans Reba McEntire and Gwen Stefani. Carson Daly hosts.
For the first time, Coaches will be given access to a Coach Replay button during the Blind Auditions. Traditionally on The Voice, if you don’t turn your chair while the vocalist is still performing, then you’ve lost out on a chance to represent that vocalist as a Coach. The “Replay” give a coach a second opportunity to turn for a contestant
The Battles Top 56
The Battles will pit two team members against each other for a spot in the Knockouts. This season, each coach will have TWO STEALS. The round ends with 9 contestants per team for a total of 36.
The Knockouts Top 36 and a mega-mentor
Nine member teams mean the 3-way Knockouts are back. Three singers from the same team perform solos for their respective coach, who will choose a winner. Singers not picked can be stolen by another coach. Each coach can also save one contestant. Although NBC has not announced the celebrity, a mega-mentor will assist the coaches as they prepare the contestants. A Top 20 moves on to the Playoffs (5 per team).
Playoffs Top 20 featuring celebrity mentors
Artists who move on to the Playoffs will perform for a spot in the live shows. Each coach can only advance two artists. No more saves or steals. Each coach will be assisted by a celebrity mentor.
Live Shows
Finally, viewers at home will be able to vote for their favorite artists during the Live Shows. The Artists with the lowest number of votes will be eligible for the Instant Save and will each perform a new song to prove why they should continue in the competition.
At the end of the competition, one Artist will be named “The Voice” and receive the grand prize of a recording contract.
