When is ‘The Voice’ Season 29 finale? Schedule change brings show to an end sooner than expected
'The Voice' Season 29 will undergo a schedule change, with two episodes airing on back-to-back nights. 'The Voice: Battle of Champions' released its semi-final episode on Monday, and the end is closer than expected. The finale will air on Tuesday, April 14, at 9/8c on NBC, marking the first time this season that a new episode will be released on consecutive nights. This change will not impact the voting. This season, it's all happening in-house, which means the audience, comprising superfans and 'The Voice' alumni, will vote for the winner, not viewers at home.
This season is already shorter than the previous ones, because of the reduced number of coaches and teams. John Legend, Adam Levine, and Kelly Clarkson saw three contestants each advance to the Top 9, and they competed for a spot in the finale during Monday's episode. The latest installment spanned two hours and ended with five favorites being eliminated. Jeremy Keith, Jared Shoemaker, JW Griffin, KJ Willis, and Syd Millevoi had to exit the competition after the votes were counted, finally revealing the four finalists. Alexia Jayy, representing Team Adam, Liv Ciara and Mikenley Brown from Team Kelly, and Lucas West from Team Legend made it to the Season 29 finale. Clarkson's team got an advantage as the judge won the All-Star Showdown that took place earlier. The Top 4 will take the stage on Tuesday for one last shot at winning the competition. While the coaches, who are all returning champions, can give their artists advice, the final decision is in the hands of the audience.
The reality singing show's alumni and super-fans will cast their votes in real time, finally revealing the winner of this season. Speaking about the new voting process, Clarkson told NBC Insider, "This is tricky season because it's in-house voting, it's live voting. That, I think, is going to change everything." John Legend also weighed in on the situation, adding, "We've never seen it before. It'll be like a little scientific experiment ... because it'll be very different from America voting." With the finale set to air sooner than expected, this season is indeed shorter than the rest, but it was full of iconic moments. It featured the return of the OG coach, CeeLo Green, and included an exciting All-Star Competition, which saw Maelyn Jarmon, Renzo, Girl Named Tom, Jake Hoot, Javier Colon, and Jordan Smith return to the stage where it all began. The much-awaited finale will air on Tuesday at 9/8c and will be available on Peacock the next day.
