The Voice Portugal (A Voz de Portugal in the first season) is a Portuguese reality singing competition and local version of The Voice, based on the original The Voice of Holland. The series employs a panel of four coaches who critique the artists' performances, and guide their teams of selected artists through the remainder of the season. They also compete to ensure that their act wins the competition, thus making them the winning coach. The original coaching panel consisted of Rui Reininho, Paulo Gonzo, Mia Rose, and the duo Os Anjos. The most recent coaching panel, for season 13, featured Sara Correia, Fernando Daniel, Sónia Tavares, and Calema. In other seasons Mickael Carreira, Marisa Liz, Anselmo Ralph, Aurea, António Zambujo, Diogo Piçarra, Carolina Deslandes, Dino D'Santiago, and Nininho Vaz Maia participated as coaches.
History
The first season premiered on 29 October 2011, on RTP1, with the finale airing on 25 February 2012, crowning Denis Filipe as the winner. The show came back in 2014 with its second season with new coaches, a new co-host, a new show name, and new Repórteres V (backstage hosts). The winner of the second season was Rui Drumond. RTP1 later announced the first season of The Voice Kids and the third season of the main show, which premiered on 11 October 2015 with a new coach, Aurea. In its third season, the show proved to be a hit and was subsequently renewed for a fourth season, which was premiered in 2016.[1]
The show is hosted by Catarina Furtado since the inaugural season, and, in the second season, Vasco Palmeirim joined her to conduce the competition.[2] The show also features backstage hosts, called Repórteres V. Diogo Beja was the first Repórter V back in 2011, being replaced in the second season by Laura Figueiredo, Mariana Monteiro, and Pedro Fernandes. In the third season, Jani Gabriel became the only Repórter V.
Concept
Each season begins with the "blind auditions" (provas cegas), where coaches form their team of artists whom they mentor through the remainder of the season. The coaches' chairs are faced toward the audience during artists' performances; those interested in an artist press their button, which turns their chair towards the artist and illuminates the bottom of the chair to read "I want you." After the performance, an artist is either defaulted to the only coach who turned around or selects their coach if more than one expresses interest.
In the "battles" round (batalhas), each coach pairs two of their team members to perform together and then chooses one to advance in the competition. A new element was added in season two; coaches were given two "steals", allowing each coach to save two individuals who were eliminated during a battle of another team.
The "knockouts" round (Tira-Teimas) was introduced in season two, where a pair of artists within a team are selected to go directly to the live shows without performing, and the other artists will have to perform. Only six artists go to the live shows.
In the live shows phase of the competition, artists perform against each other. People's votes help decide who stays on the show and who leaves.

Season 10 (2022–2023)
The tenth season of The Voice Portugal began recording on 5 September, with the confirmation that Liz and Piçarra would return as coaches, while Aurea and Zambujo were replaced by The Voice Kids coach Carolina Deslandes and new coach Dino D'Santiago. The season began airing on 25 September 2022.
This season introduced a new dynamic to the battles. Each coach could decide to do battles in pairs or groups, and the only rule was they needed to keep seven artists on their teams; hence, a battle could have one, many, or no one as winner. Apart from that, the steals were removed.
To replace the knockouts round, a new phase, called "Cross battles", was established. An artist of one team competes against an artist of another team, and the viewers' votes decide the winner of the battle. At the end of the round, each coach saved one eliminated artist from their own team.
The dynamic of the lives shows also changed this season. Starting in the fourth live show (when the Top 10 artists remain in contest), the decision of who passes through to the next episode is solely of the public; that means the artists who receive the most votes, regardless of team, advance to the next episode. This means that, for the first time ever in The Voice Portugal, a coach could have not had their team represented in the finale, which eventually did not happen. Also, contrary to the previous four seasons, there were only four finalists.
