How to Vote on The Voice
Here's how to cast your vote during The Voice Season 26 Live Shows.
The Voice's Live Shows are here, which means one thing: It's time to vote. Yes, the Live Shows officially shift the power from the Coaches to the fans, as they'll get a chance weekly to vote for their favorite Artists. But how, exactly, do you vote on The Voice? We break down the process for new viewers (or ride-or-dies who just need a refresher). See more details, below.
How do you vote on The Voice?
For The Voice Season 26 overnight vote, the limit is one vote per email address per voting method. The two methods for voting are either the website or The Voice Official App.
You'll be able to vote after the December 2 episode (Top 8 Artists) and December 9 episode (Top 5 Artists).
The voting window is 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET to 4 a.m. PT / 7 a.m. ET after the above episodes.
Is The Voice Instant Save happening this season?
Yes! During the Tuesday results show (starting December 3 at 9/8c), the Artists with the lowest number of votes will be eligible for the Instant Save. For the Top 8, four Artists will be voted into the December 9 Live Finale and the bottom four will compete for the Instant Save, with one Artist winning it. That means the December 9 show will feature five Artists (Top 5).
The limit is one vote per email address regardless of login method for the Instant Save. The two methods for voting are either the website or The Voice Official App.
A five-minute voting window will open up during the live episodes. You will vote for the Instant Save during that window.
The Top 5 Artists will sing for America's vote one last time during the December 9 episode, starting at 8/7c on NBC. The winner will be revealed during the December 10 episode, which kicks off at 9/8c on NBC.
The Voice Season 22 winner Bryce Leatherwood told NBC Insider about his experience on the show, "I’ve just been so blessed to be in this season, to get the chance to Blind Audition. To get the chance to sing so many incredible songs in so many incredible atmospheres. What a journey this has been, man. You just got to count your blessings, and I’m very blessed."
He added, "Even before The Voice, I was sure this is what I wanted to do. I took a leap of faith when it came to trying to find a way into this crazy, big business. I took a leap of faith, and look where it got me! Any Artist out there who’s wanting to do this for the rest of their lives, try out for something like this. Do something like this. Or go to an open mic night and put yourself out there. It’s not ‘gonna feel comfortable at first. But over time, you’ll grow."
