The show began with the Blind Auditions on September 6, 2025. In each audition, a contestant sings their piece in front of the coaches whose chairs are facing the audience. If a coach is interested to work with the artist, they will press their button to face the artist. If a singular coach presses the button, the contestant automatically becomes part of their team. If multiple coaches turn, they will compete for the contestant, who will decide which team they will join. Each coach has two “blocks” to prevent another coach from getting an artist, but they can use them only after a contestant’s performance. Each coach ends up with 12 artists by the end of the blind auditions, creating a total of 48 contestants advancing to the battles.
For his second consecutive season, Kuba Badach did not use either of his two blocks, while Tomson & Baron only used one block.

The battles began airing on October 11, 2025 and concluded on October 25, 2025. In this round, the coaches pick two of their contestants in a singing match and then select one of them to advance to the next round. Losing contestants may be “stolen” by another coach, becoming new members of their team. Multiple coaches can attempt to steal a contestant, resulting in a competition for the contestant, who will ultimately decide which team they will go to. At the end of this round, seven contestants will remain on each team; six will be battle winners, and one from a steal. In total, 28 contestants advance to the knockouts.

“The Voice Comeback Stage Powered by Orange” is a nine-episode online format, an integral part of the 16th season of The Voice of Poland. Contestants eliminated at various stages of the show, from the Blind Auditions to the Knockout, are given a second chance to showcase their vocal skills. Under the guidance of the fifth coach, Ania Karwan, they compete to return to the main competition.
During the Blind auditions, Karwan selects 10 contestants who didn’t turn a chair but impressed her with their talent. In the first five episodes of “The Voice Comeback Stage Powered by Orange,” two of them compete vocally, and Karwan decides who will sit in one of the three Hot Seats.
In the Battles stage, Ania selects one contestant from each of the three episodes of the main show who was eliminated in this stage. Each contestant will face a contestant in the Hot Seat. After three bouts, Karwan selects the best vocalist, who will advance directly to the semifinals.
Four contestants will advance from the Knockouts stage to “The Voice Comeback Stage Powered by Orange,” one from each coach’s team. Following their performances, viewers will select one person via the app to advance to the semifinals of “The Voice of Poland.”
Two contestants on “The Voice Comeback Stage Powered by Orange,” one chosen by Ania Karwan and the other by the viewers, will join the semifinalists of the main show and compete for victory in the 16th season of “The Voice of Poland” on equal terms.

The Knockouts premiered on November 1, 2025. During this stage, all contestants have to sing – the first four from each team are automatically put in the hot seats, and after subsequent performances of the remaining three, the coach decides whether a given contestant stays in the show or not. In the end, four contestants from each team qualify for the Live Playoffs.

The Live shows began on November 8, 2025. When the teams consist of four contestants, the coach chooses from among the two contestants with the fewest votes from the viewers (who decide by sending text messages) the person who drops out of the program. Each live episode ends with the elimination of one person from each group. In the semi-final (when the team is made up of two people), each coach divides 100 points to their artists in any way they want. The same happens with the viewers’ votes, and the artist with the most points added passes through to the Final.
