Quick facts Hosted by, Coaches ...

With Keith Urban's departure as a coach, the twelfth season is the first to not feature any of the original coaches from the show's inaugural season.

Similar to the previous two seasons, the finale was pre-recorded and the winner was determined by a viewer poll. Tarryn Stokes was declared the winner, marking Rita Ora's third and final win as a coach (her first win occurred on the generations version of the show). Also, with Stokes' win, Ora became the third coach (after Seal and Delta Goodrem) to win two consecutive seasons in the Australian franchise of The Voice. Moreover, with Ora's win, she tied with Delta Goodrem for having the most wins as coaches on The Voice Australia.

Blind auditions

Summarize
Perspective

In the blind auditions, the coaches complete their teams with 12 members each. Each coach can block another two times, and the coach who is blocked is unable to pitch for the artist. Like last season, a coach can block at any time, even during their pitch, as long as the blocker turned their chair. However, this season, coaches are allowed to block before a coach turns their chair. Also, this season axed the Battle Pass, which was introduced in the previous season.[3]
