La Voz Kids (Uruguayan TV series)

La Voz Kids (Uruguay) is a reality talent show competition broadcast in Uruguay on Canal 10. Based on the international format The Voice Kids, the show features young aspiring singers aged 7 to 15. The program aims to discover new singing talent through a series of auditions, blind auditions, battle rounds, and live performances.

Format:

The format follows the established structure of The Voice Kids. The show consists of several phases:

• Blind Auditions: Contestants perform in front of a panel of coaches (celebrity musicians) who have their backs turned to the stage. If a coach likes what they hear, they press a button to turn their chair around, indicating their desire to mentor the contestant. If more than one coach turns, the contestant chooses which coach's team they want to join.
• Battle Rounds: Each coach divides their team into groups of three. The contestants within each group perform the same song together. The coach then chooses one contestant from each group to advance to the next stage.
• Sing-Offs/Knockouts (May vary by season): Depending on the season, there may be a sing-off or knockout round where contestants perform individually, and the coach selects who advances.
• Live Shows: The remaining contestants perform live in front of a studio audience and the coaches. The audience and/or coaches vote to determine which contestants move on to the finale.
• Finale: The top contestants from each team compete for the grand prize, which typically includes a recording contract, cash prize, or other opportunities. The winner is chosen by public vote and/or coach decision.
