American singing competition series, The Voice is back with a new season to hunt for new talented artists in the US. Episode 1 of season 25 premiered on NBC on Monday, February 26, 2024, and since then fans have been patiently waiting for more episodes to be released.

Following a similar format to the previous seasons, the show will conduct blind auditions through which the judges will decide who they are willing to work with.

The Voice season 25 episode 2 is set to air on Tuesday, February 27, 2024, followed by blind audition episodes which will be released on March 4, 2024, and March 5, 2024, respectively.
