Premiere of “The Voice” 2024: How to watch and stream for free

The The voice returns for the season 26 premiere on Monday, September 23 at 8/7c.

Veterans Gwen Stefani and Reba McEntire will return for another season as coaches, while Michael Bublé and Snoop Dogg will join the series for the first time.

According to NBC, season 26 will begin with blind auditions, where coaches will select their teams by turning their chairs and touting singers who impressed them during blind singing challenges.

However, for the first time, a “Coach Replay” button will be available to coaches during the blind auditions. If a coach does not turn their chair while the singer is still performing, they have usually missed the chance to coach the singer. With the replay button, they get a second chance to participate, which is more challenging for coaches and singers alike.

Where can I watch The voice 2024?

If you don’t have a basic cable subscription, you can watch the premiere of The voice on Monday with Fubo or DirecTV Stream, both of which offer free trials for new subscribers. However, Fubo is the cheaper option of the two after the 7-day free trial.

If you want to wait, you can also watch new episodes of The voice the day after the premiere on Peacock. However, no free trial is offered upon signing up.

What is Fubo and DirecTV Stream?

Both Fubo and DirecTV Stream are set up like any other streaming service, but rather than offering exclusively on-demand content, they both offer a variety of exclusive live TV channels.

Fubo bills itself as a sports-focused live streaming service, but overall, its standard package includes over 100 live TV channels for $79.99 a month after the free trial. These channels include ESPN, ABC, NBC, CBS, TLC, MTV, and many more.

Fubo also offers a variety of shows and movies that users can watch on demand, as well as the ability to record their favorite TV shows.

DirecTV Stream is similar to Fubo in that it offers many of the same channels and features. For $94.98 per month after the free trial, the basic package includes just over 90 live TV channels.
