Blind auditions

edit

The season begins with the blind auditions, the first televised stage in the show. In the stage, the four coaches are seated in chairs that face the audience and away from the artists. The coaches judge the artists solely on their "vocal ability", and if they are interested in working with the artist, the coaches would press their button to face the artist. If multiple coaches turn, the artist would elect a coach's team to join. If only one coach turns, the artists are defaulted to that coach's team.[17] At the end of the round, each coach will end up with a team that will advance to the next round.

Competitions

edit

Following the blind auditions, the artists will compete in the sing-offs, the battles, semi-finals and the live finale.[18]

Blind auditions

edit

The show began with the blind auditions on August 27, 2023.[5] In each audition, the artists sing their piece in front of the coaches, whose chairs are facing the audience. If a coach is interested in working with the artists, they may press their button to face the act. If a sole coach presses his/her respective button, the artists automatically become part of his/her team. If multiple coaches turn, the act will decide which team they will join.[17] Each coach is tasked to form a team of five acts; Chito leads Parokya ni Chito; Billy leads Team Bilib; Julie leads JuleSquad; and Stell leads StellBound. At the end of the round, a total of 20 acts advance to the next round. Out of 20 acts, 4 of them are four-chair turners.
