The Voice Season 28 Officially Announces Playoffs Schedule Despite Shorter Broadcast Time and Fast-Paced Episodes

The Voice Season 28 has been moving at a breakneck pace. The Blind Auditions and Battles have already flown by. Now, we’re halfway through the Knockouts, and it’s only a matter of time before Playoffs start. Then, we have the highly-anticipated Live Shows, in which America’s vote will determine the Artist who wins it all.

With so many new stages of the competition coming up, we figured now is a good time to refresh fans on the remaining Season 28 schedule. You won’t want to miss a minute of the action, so be sure to mark these dates down and warm up your vocal chords.

Below, read everything you need to know about how to watch new episodes of The Voice for the rest of 2025.

A quick reminder that new episodes of The Voice air only on Mondays right now at 9/8c on NBC and stream next day on Peacock. Tuesday episodes come back for one week only—during the week of Live Finale—but we have a few more things to get to before that.

First, we need to finish the Knockouts, which airs its final round on Monday, November 24. That’s when fans will be able to vote for the Mic Drop winner. (If you’re watching, you know the Knockouts introduced a new competition element called the Mic Drop button. Each Coach gets to press their Mic Drop button once for an Artist on their team who performs exceptionally well during Knockouts. Those four Artists will then compete for America’s vote to be the Mic Drop winner—and that person gets to perform at the 2026 Rose Parade.)

After the Knockouts come the Playoffs, which air Monday, December 1 and Monday, December 8. After that comes the Live Shows on Monday, December 15 and Tuesday, December 16. Then, poof! That’s it. The season is over.

But don’t worry: The Voice Season 29 arrives in 2026 with an all-star Coach lineup: Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and Adam Levine. Dubbed The Voice: Battle of Champions, Season 29 will have even more format changes and surprises that raise the stakes and keep fans on their toes. Stay connected to NBC Insider for more details.

What will be different about The Voice: Battle of Champions?

The most obvious difference between The Voice: Battle of Champions and previous seasons will be the number of Coaches competing. There will be only three instead of the usual four.

Fortunately, they’re some of the most legendary stars ever to participate: Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and Adam Levine will all make their long-awaited return to their oversized Coach Chairs!

Fans can expect to see new elements like Triple Turn Competitions throughout the Blind Auditions, new Super Steals during the Battles, and an In-Season All-Star Competition — judged by OG Coach CeeLo Green — to turn the show’s usual format completely upside-down.

In other words, you won’t want to miss a single unpredictable second of the award-winning singing competition show when The Voice: Battle of Champions returns on Monday, February 23 at 9/8c on NBC.
