Fans are eagerly awaiting Season 30 of NBC’s The Voice, set to premiere September 21, but the network is already looking ahead to what’s next. Arriving in 2027, Season 31 will introduce The Voice: Celebrity, the franchise’s first-ever celebrity edition of the hit competition series.
New to the coaching panel for Season 30 is Riley Green, who will make his debut in the iconic red chair this fall. Today’s news reveals that fans can already expect to see the country star to return to the show next year for the new spin-off season. He is set to join Joe Jonas and Queen Latifah as coaches while Keke Palmer has been tapped to host.
The fresh format for Season 31 is expected to bring a fresh twist to the beloved competition series. Instead of serving as a platform for undiscovered singers, the spin-off will feature a diverse lineup of celebrity contestants, including actors, musicians, influencers, athletes, comedians, and reality television stars, all competing for the chance to claim the winning title.
Viewers will get to watch as the celebrity’s step outside their comfort zones and showcase talents audiences may have never seen before. Viewers can expect “unprecedented access” throughout the season, following the contestants as they prepare, perform and navigate the competition.
This unique season will also introduce new elements to the show, like Voice Boot Camp, which will give viewers a behind-the-scenes look at how celebrity Artists prepared for their Blind Auditions. Then the show will step inside the “VIP Room,” where contestants watch their fellow artists perform for the Coaches, and the “Workroom,” where they “strategize, rehearse and ready themselves for the Battles.”
The celebrity lineup competing on The Voice: Celebrity will be revealed at a later date.
Both Queen Latifah and Riley Green will return for their second seasons as Coaches on The Voice after making their coaching debuts in Season 30. Meanwhile, Joe Jonas also brings previous experience with the franchise, having appeared as a Mentor and Advisor in past seasons and previously serving as a Coach on The Voice Australia in 2018.
Fans can tune into the Season 30 premiere of The Voice on September 21 at 8/7c on NBC.
