The highly anticipated music talent show ‘The Voice Africa’ show is set to debut on March 26, 2023.
The Voice Africa received 78,804 registrations from Nigeria, Kenya, Seychelles, Tchad, Uganda, Congo, Zambia, Tanzania, Rwanda, Gabon, Madagascar, Malawi, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Out of these, 12,308 talents were then selected for auditions and a total of 100, seven per country in addition to two wild cards, were chosen to proceed to the live shows in Lagos, Nigeria.
With Airtel Africa as the title sponsors, The Voice Africa will be showcased in Kenya on Citizen TV. It will follow the format of the global show, starting out with blind auditions, battle rounds, knockouts, playoffs and conclude with the live shows.
The show will run for 25 weeks, airing one show per week, with the first shows running the blind auditions based solely on the talents’ voices and not looks.
The Voice Africa is expected to attract both a pan-African and global audience, featuring a high-profile panel of coaches and TV hosts who will witness one of the 100 selected talents eventually crowned The Voice Africa.
