Production

On 21 October 2020, Seven Network announced at their annual upfronts that they will be reviving the series, originally slated for 2022. [2] [3] [4] It was later delayed until 2023.

Ricki-Lee Coulter and Scott Tweedie are the hosts, with the judging panel consisting of former American Idol judge Harry Connick Jr., former Australian Idol judge Kyle Sandilands, Amy Shark and Meghan Trainor. [5] [6] Original judge Marcia Hines will appear as a guest judge. [7]

The series is produced by Eureka Productions.

Auditions

Auditions were held in various cities around Australia. If an auditionee received a "yes" vote from at least three of the four judges, they received a "golden ticket", which put them into the top 50. In a few cases, a single judge visited a remote location, and auditionees were accepted or rejected for the top 50 by that judge alone.

Top 6 (19–20 March)

Each contestant performed a song on live performance night. The judges opted not to put any singer directly into the Grand Finale, meaning that all results would be decided by the public vote. On results night, after voting had closed, the contestants each sang again. After each pair of contestants had sung, the results were announced for those two singers: one eliminated, and one was put through to the Grand Finale, three in total.
