The Voice Australia has returned to filming again for the 2026 season and fans can secure a front row seat! With a line-up of superstar coaches ready to turn dramatically in those iconic red chairs, fans now also have the chance to secure a front row seat to all the talent and action.
Initially premiering in Australia in 2012, this reality show features celebrity coaches who mentor singing contestants through multiple rounds until one singer remains, walking away with $100,000 and a recording contract. The dream!
However, the most iconic aspect of the show is the ‘blind auditions.’
If you’ve possibly been living under a rock since the show’s Australian debut, the ‘blind auditions’ consist of judges facing away from the stage while listening to contestants sing their hearts out, forcing them to judge their voice alone.
If they’re impressed by what they hear, they slam that big red button on their chair and turn to face their future star.
While this hit singing competition is not set to air until the second half of the year, here’s everything we know so far, as well as how fans can get in on the action.
Who are the coaches of The Voice Australia 2026?
Returning from the 2025 season, this year’s coaches will be Kate Miller-Heidke, Melanie C, Ronan Keating, and Richard Marx.
