The Voice is officially gearing up for their next season, featuring former coaches Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and Adam Levine. The first ever The Voice Battle of Champions season is set to premiere on NBC on February 23, 2026 at 9PM ET.
First Trailer for The Voice Battle of Champions
The Voice is back later this month! This upcoming version of the singing competition features former coaches, Kelly Clarkson, Adam Levine, and John Legend. Due to the coaches, fans are looking forward to the beginning of this competition.
The trailer, which was released today, features coaches Clarkson, Legend, and Levine in snippets from the season. The fast paced trailer features some “super” features, including ‘super’ coaches, ‘super’ new talent, ‘super’ moves, ‘super’ battle, and ‘super’ surprises. Some of these ‘super’ references were shown in the trailer, like the surprise being inaugural coach CeeLo Green returning, and the ‘super’ coaches being the current panel.
Finally, in this trailer, it’s evident that the heart and soul of The Voice is returning, with full potential. The return of former coaches is truly setting this series apart from others. Notably, Clarkson brings an energy to the panel that is undeniable. There’s even a portion of the trailer that features Levine trying to get a singer on his team by saying he’s the “first coach to have won the show.”
Clarkson, with her hilarious-slightly-chaotic energy reminds Levine that he may have won first, but she’s won the most.
How is The Voice Battle of Champions Different?
Also featured in this new series is the All Star Showdown, which will feature winners of the series. During the Knockouts, Jordan Smith, Javier Colon, Renzo, Maelyn Jarmon, Jake Hoot, and Girl Named Tom will compete in sing-offs.
The coach with the most sing-off wins is guaranteed to have a second Season 29 artist in the finale. These sing-offs will be judged by former coach CeeLo Green. Fans are excited to see the return of all of these The Voice winners in the new season.
The Voice Battle of Champions premieres on NBC on February, 23, 2026 at 9PM ET. The show will have episodes available next day on Peacock.
