“The Voice” is getting a makeover for Season 29 — There will be some BIG CHANGES.
“The Voice” is getting a makeover for Season 29.
On July 22, NBC announced that 29th season of the singing competition show will include a new format and be called “The Voice: Battle of Champions,” according to NBC Insider.
For the first time ever, “The Voice” will only include three coaches — and see the return of show alums. It will also introduce new challenges and voting rules.
But before this new version takes over, Season 28 will premiere this fall with Michael Bublé, Snoop Dogg, Niall Horan and Reba McEntire as coaches.
News of the revamped format comes months after Adam David, from Team (Michael) Bublé, won Season 27.
Read on to learn more about Season 29, “The Voice: Battle of Champions,” coming in the spring of 2026.
Who Are the Coaches for Season 29 of ‘the Voice: Battle of Champions’?

Season 29 of “The Voice” will include original and recently returned coach Adam Levine, as well as Kelly Clarkson and John Legend.
Levine has won “The Voice” three times, Clarkson has won four times, while Legend has won once.
What Is the New Format for Season 29 of ‘The Voice’?
Season 29 of “The Voice” will have a number of changes when it returns in the spring. Among the newest twists includes:
Triple Turn Competition: During the blind auditions, coaches will compete to earn the most three-chair turns. The winning coach earns a special advantage in the Battles, according to NBC Insider.
Super Steal: After winning the most three-chair turns, the coach gets rewarded with a Super Steal in the Battles. This means that the coach can overthrow another coach who is attempting to steal an artist, and get who they want.
In-Season All-Star Competition: In the Knockouts, each coach will be able to bring back two artists from their former teams to compete in head-to-head sing-offs. The coach who wins the most sing-offs is guaranteed a second Season 29 artist in the finale.
New Voting Rules: During the semi-finals and finale, super fans and past “The Voice” alums will be in the studio audience and eligible to vote in real time.
When Does Season 29 of ‘The Voice: Battle of Champions’ Premiere?
A premiere date has yet to be announced, but Season 29 will air in the spring of 2026.
