Out of the four coaches that appeared in the previous season, only Niall Horan is slated to make a return, marking his second season as a coach.[3] Coaches Kelly Clarkson, Chance the Rapper, and Blake Shelton, all left the panel for the season.

Shelton remarked in an interview with Access Hollywood that the previous season would be his last due to familial reasons.[4] His departure makes the twenty-fourth season the first to not feature any of the coaches from the inaugural season.[5][6] Meanwhile, Clarkson's departure comes amid allegations of a toxic work environment within her talk show.[7][8]

Former coaches John Legend and Gwen Stefani, whom both last coached on season 22, are set to return for their eighth and seventh seasons respectively.[9]

During the semifinals of the previous season, it was revealed that country music singer and actress Reba McEntire would appear as a coach for her first season.[10] McEntire previously made several apprarances on the show—she served as the battle advisor for Team Blake on the show's inaugural season; an advisor for all teams during the Top 12 live shows on season eight; and as the mega mentor on season 23.[11][12] She was also tapped to serve as a coach on the show's first season, but she declined.[13] McEntire's history on the show, as well as her reputed career in country music,[14] have led several publications to identify her as Shelton's replacement.[15][16] Her inclusion as a coach had garnered a positive response from viewers, including Adrianna Freedman of Good Housekeeping, who praised McEntire as a "music legend".[17]

Carson Daly will return as the host for his twenty-fourth season.

Blind auditions
Further information: The Voice (American TV series) § Selection process and format

The show begins with the blind auditions. In each audition, an artist sings their piece in front of the coaches, whose chairs are facing the audience. If a coach is interested in working with the artist, they may press their button to face the artist. If only one coach presses the button, the artist automatically becomes part of their team. If multiple coaches turn, they will compete for the artist, who will decide which team they will join. Each coach has one "block" to prevent another coach from getting an artist. The team sizes for the season are yet to be announced.
