Series chronology

The Voice Kids is a British television music competition to find new singing talent. The seventh series began airing on 1 July 2023 on ITV1.[1][2] The series was confirmed by ITV in September 2022 when applications opened. They closed in November, prior to the airing of the previous series.[3][4][5] The programme aired in the summer slot for the first time since the fourth series and aired weekly again, instead of nightly.[6][7] will.i.am, Ronan Keating, Pixie Lott and Danny Jones all returned as coaches, making it the first time since the third series that all coaches from the previous series returned.[8][9]

The series was won by twins Shanice & Andrea Nyandoro, making them the first duo to win the show. Their victory also marks will.i.am's first win as a coach on the kids version of the show.[10][11][12] This also means that will.i.am has won at least one season in each version he's competed on, as he has won in both the adult series and The Voice Australia.

This series is currently the latest to air. Following the final, it was announced that the show would be put on a hiatus, leaving the fate of the series unknown.[13][14]
