The Voice Season 28 Finale
The Voice Season 28 finale is set for Dec. 15-16, and the stage is already set with six finalists who have battled through a season of fierce competition. The live two-part finale will showcase the best from each of the four coaches—Reba McEntire, Niall Horan, Michael Bublé, and Snoop Dogg—who each began with 12 hopefuls. The playoffs concluded on Dec. 8, leaving each team with only one artist ready to advance to the final showdown. These finalists were chosen through a series of cuts that narrowed each coach’s roster to a single contender who will perform on the finale stage.
Team Snoop and Team Niall made their selections on the Dec. 8 episode, picking one contestant from the four remaining on each team. In contrast, Team Reba and Team Bublé had already made their choices during the episode that aired the day before the playoffs ended. With one artist per team, a total of six singers will compete on Dec. 15 and 16 for the title of Season 28 champion. While each team’s chosen finalist is guaranteed a spot, viewers still have the opportunity to add another competitor to the lineup.
The Voice app and NBC.com/VoiceVote allow fans to vote for an additional artist, and tonight’s vote focuses solely on eliminated members from Team Niall and Team Snoop. Voting will close at 7 a.m. ET on Dec. 9, giving fans a narrow window to influence the final roster. Each email address is limited to one vote, ensuring a fair and balanced voting process. Last week, viewers were asked to decide which eliminated singer from either Team Bublé or Team Reba should join the finale.
