Blind Auditions

The Blind Auditions began broadcasting on 25 September 2025, and is broadcast every Thursday on ProSieben and every Friday on Sat.1. This season, the blocks returned, but with a twist. Unlike the previous seasons, each coach now only has two blocks that they can use to block another coach. However, they can choose to use the block at any time, even during their pitch, as long as the coach turned their chair. Only one block is allowed per audition; once a coach already used their block, the other coaches are not allowed to use their block. In addition, this season introduced the Joker. Each coach has a coin and is only allowed to use it once to try to further convince the artist to join their team. Each coach has seventeen spots to fill on their team, and, unlike last season, each coach filled their team. This is the second season in The Voice of Germany history where at least one coach (Shirin David in this case) does not have a one-chair turn on their team.
