“The Voice” is switching things up for the next few weeks.
Monday, Oct. 20, will mark a change to NBC’s hit reality singing competition series’ scheduled programming, airing on one night, instead of two, for a limited time. The time, though, won’t change for another couple of weeks.
Season 28 judges Reba McEntire, Snoop Dogg, Michael Bublé and Niall Horan, whether they’ve liked it or not, have slowly but surely whittled down the competition since “Battle Rounds” began.
With each new “Voice” episode, America is one step closer to learning the identity of its “next singing phenomenon,” who will not only be crowned victor, but also earn a $100,000 prize and a recording contract with Universal Music Group.
“Fans can expect a brand-new season of awe-inspiring Blind Auditions, jaw-dropping Knockouts, and emotional Live Shows, all building up to one Artist being crowned the next champion,” NBC Insider said.
Starting Monday, Oct. 20, “The Voice” will air only on Monday nights. Episodes that air on Oct. 20 and Oct. 27 will start at 8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. CT.
How to watch ‘The Voice’ Season 28
New episodes of “The Voice” air Monday nights on NBC, with episodes available to stream on Peacock the day after they air.
The Voice’s Historic Rule Changes for Season 28 Give Artists & Fans More Power
There will be some changes to Season 28, as well: exciting updates and format remixes that up the ante and shift power to Daly, the Artists, and the fans.
The Mic Drop button during Knockouts
For Knockouts, each Coach gets to hit their Mic Drop button for the one Artist on their team who truly rises above the rest. Once those four Artists are selected, fans at home will vote for their Mic Drop winner. The winning Artist gets to perform during the Rose Parade Presented by Honda on January 1, 2026.
Fans get to vote two Artists into Live Shows
Only six Artists will advance from Playoffs to Live Shows. Each Coach will select only one Artist from their teams to advance. The fifth and sixth singers will be determined by fans’ votes, a historic first.
All the Coaches are hungry for wins this season. Bublé and Horan are both currently two-for-two and gunning for three-peats. McEntire is hoping for her second victory after winning with Asher HaVon in Season 25. And Snoop Dogg is eager to get his first-ever win. Place your bets now on who takes it all home.
