The Voice is returning to NBC for a brand new season.
The singing competition, which will shortly kick off its 22nd installment, will see a batch of new hopefuls take to the stage with the hopes of making it to the final and walking away with the $100,000 cash prize, plus a recording contract with Universal Music Group.
Last season Kelly Clarkson's act Girl Named Tom were named the winners of The Voice 2021, becoming the first band to win the show in its 10-year history.
As well as a group of new contestants, the 2022 season of The Voice will also see a brand new lineup of judges, or coaches as they are called on the show.
Four musicians will once again take their seats in the show's iconic red spinning chairs, armed with their advice and expertise that they will pass on to the auditionees.
Newsweek has everything you need to know about the upcoming season of The Voice, including its start date and who is on the coaching panel.
When Does The Voice 2022 Start?
The Voice Season 22 will premiere with a two-episode special, beginning on Monday, September 19 at 8/7c on NBC, and continuing on Tuesday, September 20 at the same time slot.
The new episodes will continue to air on Monday and Tuesday nights but, if Season 22 follows a similar pattern to previous installments, it should move to one, two-hour episode a week in the middle of the season, before returning to two hourly episodes weekly when the live shows begin.
Whilst the show airs on NBC, last season The Voice was available to stream on Hulu. This year, however, fans will need to head to Peacock if they want to stream The Voice after it has aired.
Who Are the Judges on The Voice 2022?
Blake Shelton and John Legend are returning as coaches on The Voice, where they will be joined by Gwen Stefani, who last appeared as a coach in Season 19, and first-time coach Camila Cabello.
Long-serving The Voice coach Kelly Clarkson confirmed she was exiting the singing competition in May 2022, with Cabello later announcing she would be filling Clarkson's shoes.
Cabello has appeared on The Voice before, having served as a mentor for Legend's team, but this will be her first time as a full-time judge.
Stefani, meanwhile, who is married to co-star Shelton, is returning to the show to take over Ariana Grande's slot, following the star's debut turn as a coach in 2021.
Who Are The Voice 2022's Battle Advisors?
As well a star-studded coaching lineup, there will also be some famous faces joining The Voice for the Battle Rounds.
It's been confirmed that the contestants who make it onto Team Legend will have Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriter Jazmine Sullivan on hand, while Cabello is enlisting the help of singer, songwriter and producer Charlie Puth.
Chart-topping country music star Jimmie Allen will be joining the singers on Team Blake and Team Gwen will be advised by rapper, singer and songwriter Sean Paul.
The Voice 2022 is scheduled to premiere on Monday, September 19 on NBC.
