How to watch 'The Voice' season 25 online and from anywhere, TV channels, schedule, coaches' teams

Dan + Shay sitting in the new double chair as judges on "The Voice" season 25.

After 19 shows and three months, the artists left to compete for one of the most coveted prizes in reality television have been whittled down to just five. You can watch "The Voice" on NBC and Peacock in the U.S and CTV in Canada, with the grand finale taking place on May 20 and 21. But don't worry if you're away when it's on, as we'll explain how to watch "The Voice" season 25 online and from anywhere with a VPN.

'The Voice' streaming details, TV channels, start time

"The Voice" season 25 is currently going out on Mondays and Tuesdays.
Time — 8/7c
•  U.S. — NBC /  Peacock
•  Watch anywhere — try NordVPN risk-free

Ever-present host Carson Daly and stalwart coach John Legend are back for season 25, with 'Queen of Country' Reba McEntire and hip-hop star Chance the Rapper both trying to pick out the contestants that they think could have a career in the industry.

The big change this year is the introduction of the 'double chair', which is being occupied by three-time Grammy winning duo Dan + Shay. Although for three coaches, this will be the last time to mentor a fresh new artist to glory. Only Reba will remain next series, with John, Chance and Dan + Shay not returning for season 26. Gwen Stefani is (holla)back, with Snoop Dogg and Michael Bublé making their debuts in the chair.

But before all that is the serious business of the season 25 grand final. Five potential stars in the making will compete over two nights of live shows. We'll reveal no spoilers up here, but you can learn the identity of the finalists at the bottom of this article.

For four acts, it was a case of 'so close, yet so far', as they made a painful exit at the end of the penultimate week of live shows. There semi-final saw performances as diverse as Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time", Otis Redding's "Try a Little Tenderness",  Beyoncé's "Irreplaceable" and "I'll Never Love Again" from the movie "A Star Is Born".

So who will follow in the footsteps of Koryn Hawthorne, Nicolle Galyon, Cassadee Pope and last year's winner Huntley? Keep reading to find out where to watch "The Voice" season 25 in the U.S. and beyond.

Sling TV is the best value cable replacement of the lot from just $40/month and half price for your first month. Its Blue plan includes local NBC channels in a number of territories (double check that yours is included before you buy). Fubo is another great option, with in excess of 100 channels.
