Coaches and hosts
In June 2021, bTV announced the return of the musical competition show. Of the four coaches of the previous season, only Ivan Lechev returned, marking his fifth season as a coach. Debuting coaches Dara, Galena, and Lubo Kirov were announced, replacing Mihaela Fileva, Kamelia and Grafa. Kamelia was supposed to return for her fifth time as a coach but opted not to return on the show. After the announcement of new coaches, Ivan Tishev took the hosting responsibility, replacing Pavell and Venci Venc' who were hosts for the last four seasons. Also, Alexandra Bogdanska served as backstage host for her second season. == Production ==

Blind auditions
In this season, coaches complete their teams without a specific number of members. However, each one will be cut down to 14 contestants, on the last episode of the blinds. In addition to the season, each coach is given two blocks to use during the auditions. The "final selection" follows right after the blind auditions. Coaches would finalize the number of artists on their team by choosing, randomly, 14 artists to proceed to the next stage. Artists chosen by their respective coach will proceed to the next round, the Battles, while the unselected ones will be eliminated. Episode 1 (September 12) Episode 2 (September 19) Episode 3 (September 26) Episode 4 (October 3) Episode 5 (October 10) Episode 6 (October 17) Episode 7 (October 24) == Battles ==
Battles
The battles round begin airing on October 31. The battle advisers for this season are the following: Maria Ilieva (future coach in season 10-11) for Team Lubo, season 3 coach Atanas Penev for Team Ivan, Doni for Team Dara, Medi (future coach in season 12) and Georgi Simeonov for Team Galena. Each coach is entitled to one "steal" throughout the battles (as in season 6) to save a losing contestant. At the end of the battles, eight contestants (seven winning and one stolen artists) will remain on each team, advancing through to the Knockouts. == Knockouts ==
Knockouts
The Knockouts round begins airing on November 21. Ishtar is the Mega mentor for all teams in this phase.

Live shows
Episode 13: Cross Battles (December 5) Cross Battles were broadcast on December 5. In this round, an artist would be sent by his or her coach to compete against an artist from another team. The selection of the artists and their order of appearance were all decided by their respective coaches, and all of them were done without the knowledge of the opposing coach. Therefore, the battle pairings were completely random, and would only be revealed when the coaches appeared with their selected artist on stage. This is the first time the Bulgarian version has had this phase. As the Cross Battles are broadcast live the results of the battle will be determined by public vote in real-time. Public votes will be done only during the airing of the episode. After this round, six artists will be remaining to move on in the Grand Final. It is the first time the series has a final with six finalists. With the elimination of Rashed, Ivanov, and Zdravkovic, Lubo Kirov no longer has any artists remaining on his team. For the first time in the show's history, a coach's team does not have any artists in the grand finale. Episode 14: Final (December 12) The final was divided into three rounds. First, the six finalists performed with a guest, and then the sixth and fifth places were announced. In the second round, the four finalists remaining performed alone and the fourth and third places were, then, revealed. Finally, the Top 2 performed alone again, followed by the winner announcement. == Elimination chart ==
