Format
The series consisted of three phases: Blind audition, Battle phase, and Performance shows. Three judges/coaches (Four from season three and after), all noteworthy recording artists, choose teams of contestants through a blind audition process (18 members). After being acquired by TV Azteca in season 3, the show featured the Blind auditions, Knockouts, Battles and Performance Shows.
First Phase – The Blind Auditions
Each judge has the length of the auditioner's performance (about one minute) to decide if he or she wants that singer on his or her team; if two or more judges want the same singer (as happens frequently), the singer has the final choice of coach.
Second Phase – The Knockouts
In this phase three artists from the same team sing an individual song and their coach chooses the winner. The two losing artists are available to 'steal' by the other three coaches.
Third Phase – The Battles
In this phase two artists battle against each other directly by singing the same song together, with the coach choosing which artist advances to the Performance Shows. The losing artist is available to 'steal' by the other three coaches.
Fourth Phase – The Performance Shows
In the Performance Shows, each artist competes to receive their coach’s and public’s vote. The artists with the highest votes from their team advance to the next round. This repeats throughout the show until the Finale, where one artist per team is voted as the Top 4. In the Finale, the highest voted artist wins the title as their country’s The Voice 'Kid', along with their coach.
Coaches and hosts
After five successful seasons of La Voz... México, Televisa confirmed they would also produce the kids version with Maluma, Rosario Flores and Emmanuel & Mijares as the coaches.[2] Coach from the adult version, Yuri was host, alongside Olivia Peralta who served backstage.[3] In September 2019, Televisa announced the official airing of the second season labeling it as ¡La ultima y nos vemós! (The last one and we'll see you!).[4] Carlos Rivera and Lucero who both served as coaches in the adult version were confirmed as the coaches, alongside Melendi.[5] Both hosts returned for the second season.
The third season was set to air in 2020, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic delays, it was pushed to 2021. Filming for the third season began in October 2020 with Belinda, Mau y Ricky, María José, and Camilo being revealed as the coaches.[6][7]
