With much drama and fanfare, the winner was announced. Jeremy Beloate came in fifth place, then Danny Joseph, Sydney Sterlace, and Shye in fourth, third, and second. That left Sofronio Vasquez as the overall winner of The Voice.
The night featured many performances, some from each contestant and their coaches, and some from former The Voice contestants and coaches. Season 24 winner Huntley performed his new single, as did Asher HaVon, winner of season 25. The sets were incredible, as were the stars who took the stage.
FINAL PERFORMANCE:
The Voice Reveals Season 26 Winner Following a Star-Studded Finale
Sofronio Vasquez was named the winner of The Voice season 26 after a long journey. There was a lot of hard work and perseverance from all the contestants, with the stakes at an all-time high this season. However, it has all come to an end after an exciting final episode.
A few former coaches returned to The Voice to perform. Kelly Clarkson performed her new holiday single “You for Christmas,” while Dan + Shay, who coached last season, performed as well. Clarkson had fans begging for her to return to the show as a coach, but she’s since found success with her talk show. The Kelly Clarkson Show celebrated five years this September, and we’re all hoping for more.
Former winners of The Voice also returned. Huntley, who won season 24, performed his new single “Skyline Drive,” which is a “love song to Virginia.” Asher HaVon, winner of season 25, also made an appearance. He recently released the new single “Thank You,” dedicating it to his former coach, Reba McEntire.
With season 26 over, it’s time to look forward to season 27. The next season premieres on February 3, 2025, according to NBC. John Legend and Adam Levine are returning after absences from the show, and Michael Bublé will continue next season. The only new coach will be Kelsea Ballerini to round out the panel.
