Season 26 of The Voice sees a mix of familiar faces and new entrants in the coaching roles. Snoop Dogg and Michael Bublé are joining as coaches for the first time, bringing their vast experience in music to the show. Snoop Dogg, who has previously been a mega mentor, expressed his enthusiasm about coaching, stating he looks forward to giving direction to new artists. Michael Bublé, after declining multiple offers in the past, has finally agreed to join the show, emphasizing the role of a coach over that of a judge and expressing his excitement about helping other artists grow. They will be joined by veteran coaches Gwen Stefani and Reba McEntire, both of whom have previously won seasons of the show.

The Voice Season 26 will experience several scheduling changes to accommodate the American elections. Notably, there will be no episodes airing on Tuesdays until October, starting from the season premiere on September 23. The show will also make way for the vice-presidential debate and election results, affecting its regular broadcasting schedule. These adjustments are crucial for ensuring that the show does not clash with significant national events, allowing viewers to stay updated with both the elections and their favorite singing competition.

This season introduces a 'Coach Replay' button during the Blind Auditions, allowing coaches a second chance to turn for a contestant they initially missed. This new feature adds an interesting twist to the competition, potentially changing the fate of several participants. The season will continue with its traditional phases, including the Battles, Knockouts, and Live Shows, each designed to test the contestants' abilities in different formats. The introduction of celebrity mentors during the Playoffs is another highlight, providing contestants with additional support and insights from industry experts.
