[1] A 30-minute preview episode aired following NBC's broadcast of the closing ceremony of the 2016 Summer Olympics on August 21, 2016.

Alicia Keys and Miley Cyrus joined the panel replacing Pharrell Williams and Christina Aguilera making it the first season with two female coaches.

This is Alicia Keys's second appearance on the show after being the advisor for Team Pharrell in the Battle rehearsals in season 7.

This is also Miley Cyrus's second appearance on the show after being key advisor for the Knockout rehearsals in season 10, making her the youngest ever coach in any of the national versions of The Voice franchise worldwide at that time at the age of 24 (until Tini Stoessel coach La Voz... Argentina at the age of 21 in 2018).

The coaches performed "Dream On" at the start of the show, as a tribute to former contestant Christina Grimmie who was killed on June 10, 2016, after the finals of the previous season.

Color Key: For the Knockouts, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill were assigned as partner husband-and-wife duo mentors together for contestants in all four teams.

iTunes bonus multipliers were awarded to Sundance Head (#1), Brendan Fletcher (#2), Billy Gilman (#4), Christian Cuevas (#6) and Wé McDonald (#9).
