Time flies when you're having fun, and we can't quite believe that "The Voice" is now into its 30th season. The latest edition of the singing contest will feature extra special themed Live Shows, with those taking part vying for not only the glory of winning, but also the prospect of performing at the 2027 Governors Ball.
Levine is now back for his 19th stint in the famous red chairs, while Clarkson is making her 11th appearance on the show. Carson Daly will host once more, marking his 13th and final spell on the show. Meanwhile, country music star Riley Green and pop culture icon Queen Latifah are stepping in for the first time.
Speaking of first times, this year "The Voice" Live Shows will be simulcast on NBC and Peacock — something the show has never done before.
Here's how to watch "The Voice" season 30 online, with a potentially free option available, too.
Can I watch 'The Voice' season 30 for FREE?
If you watch "The Voice" on NBC you'll be able to enjoy it all for free. NBC is a free-to-air linear TV channel in the U.S., with a TV antenna.
No cable? No problem. You can also sign up to YouTube TV for a 21-day free trial and it'll give you access to the NBC linear channel. However, to keep watching beyond that period you'll have to pay.
Fubo (10 days) and DirecTV Stream (5 days) are more OTT streaming options, with NBC, that offer free trial periods. Again, if you want to see "The Voice" through to the finale, you'd have to pay to keep using the service.
Away from the U.S. right now? You'll need a VPN to watch your regular stream without getting geo-blocked — we recommend NordVPN.
