Coaches returning for Season 29

Season 29 will feature three returning Coaches instead of the usual four.

Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and Adam Levine will occupy the red chairs throughout the Blind Auditions, Battles, Knockouts, and Live Shows.

Each Coach will select a team of 10 Artists during the Blind Auditions.

Their participation follows prior appearances on the show, with all three having won or mentored winning contestants in previous seasons.

Format changes in the season 29 blind auditions

A new element called the Triple Turn Competition will occur during the Blind Auditions. In this format, coaches aim to achieve the most three-chair turns.

The winning coach of the Triple Turn Competition will receive a special advantage in the following Battle Rounds.

This is the first instance of such a structured competition being implemented within the Blind Auditions phase of The Voice season 29.

The Battle Rounds and Super Steal

The Battle Rounds will include a new rule referred to as the Super Steal. The Coach who wins the Triple Turn Competition will be granted one Super Steal, which can only be used once.

This rule overrides other Coaches’ Steal attempts during the Battles, guaranteeing the winning coach retains the selected Artist.

The Battles proceed in a head-to-head format among team members, with the Super Steal serving as a strategic tool within these rounds.

Knockouts and In-Season All-Star competition on Season 29

During​‍​‌‍​‍‌ the Knockouts, each Coach will select two of their previously eliminated Artists to return and represent their team at an In-Season All-Star Competition.

These returning Artists will face off in head-to-head sing-offs. ​‍​‌‍​‍‌

The coach who accumulates the most sing-off wins will secure two Artists from their Season 29 team in the Finale. CeeLo Green, a Season 1 Coach, will return to judge the In-Season All-Star Competition.

Semi-Finals and Finale voting

The Semi-Finals will feature the Top 9 performances, leading to a Top 4 Finale. Voting will include a block of super-fans and past The Voice Artists who will participate as part of the in-studio audience.

This​‍​‌‍​‍‌ group will be able to make their choice online as the event unfolds in the Semi-Finals and Finale. The result of this voting will be the main factor to identify which Artists go on to the next stages of the competition.

So the audience can still watch The Voice season 28 on NBC before The Voice season 29 comes up with new episodes.

They are on air Mondays at 9 p.m. ET, and the next-day streaming is available on Peacock.

The Voice: Battle of Champions will have these changes to the format in addition to the usual structure of Blind Auditions, Battles, Knockouts, and Live Shows.

The season is set to keep weekly episodes after its premiere, with the competition going on through the Semi-Finals and ​‍​‌‍​‍‌Finale.

Stay tuned for more updates.
