The eleventh season of The Voice began airing on 18 April 2022. [1] In October 2021, it was announced Seven Network had once again picked up the series for its eleventh season, set to broadcast in 2022. At the same time, it was announced that Keith Urban, Jessica Mauboy, Rita Ora, and Guy Sebastian would all return as coaches. Sonia Kruger was also announced to return as host. [2]

Similar to last season, the finale was pre-recorded and the winner was determined by a viewer poll. Lachie Gill was declared the winner, marking Rita Ora's first win as a coach and the second winning artist that had a coach blocked during his/her blind audition (Rita Ora blocking Guy Sebastian), after Bella Taylor Smith in the previous season.

Note: Underlined names are artists that received a Battle Pass from their coach.

Blind auditions

In the blind auditions, the coaches complete their teams with 12 members each. Each coach can block another two times and the coach who is blocked is unable to pitch for the artist. However, new to this season, a coach can block at any time, even during their pitch as long as the blocker turned his/her chair. Also, this season introduces the Battle Pass. In this twist, coaches will have a new button, in addition to the main button and the block buttons. The Battle Pass allows a coach to automatically send the contestant to the battles. Each coach could only press the button for one artist in the entire phase. [3]

Callbacks

The Callbacks aired on 4 May. In this round, each coach needs to trim down their artists from 12 down to 6. [3] Shaun Wessel, Faith Sosene, Celestial Utai, and Theoni Marks have been given Battle Passes from their coaches. This allows them to skip the Callbacks, and go straight to the battles.

Each coach splits the remaining eleven team members into groups of three or four. Those three or four artists then take to the stage together and each performs a different song based on the theme selected by the coaches. In each group, the coach can select one, two, or all of them; as long as each coach has selected five artists to advance to the battles.

In total, only six from each team will advance to the battle rounds: five selected by the coach in the callbacks (with some reprising their blind audition song and not required to perform in the sing-off in front of an audience) and the Battle Pass recipient. The artists not chosen in this round will be eliminated.
