The Voice (Australian TV series) season 6

The sixth season of The Voice began on 24 April 2017. Delta Goodrem was the only coach to reprise her role from the fifth season. She was joined by returning coach, Seal, returning for his third season after a three-year absence and new additions Boy George and Kelly Rowland, replacing Jessie J, The Madden Brothers and Ronan Keating, respectively.

Coaches and hosts

In July 2016, Jessie J announced her departure from The Voice after two seasons, commenting "I've loved doing the show, I've done four seasons: two in the U.K., two in Sydney, but I just need to make another album." In November, it was confirmed that Delta Goodrem would be returning for her fifth season as coach, whilst Seal would be returning for his third season after a three-year hiatus to replace Jessie J. On 8 December 2016, it was announced that former The Voice UK coach Boy George would be joining the show as the third coach replacing The Madden Brothers. On 24 December 2016, via the show's Facebook page, it was announced that former The X Factor USA judge Kelly Rowland would be joining the panel as the fourth and final coach to replace Ronan Keating.
