The second edition of The Voice Kids aired in prime time on Rai 1 from November 24 to December 22, 2023, for five episodes with the hosting of Antonella Clerici.[1] New in this edition, in addition to the entry of the new coach Arisa, were two new tools, which could be used during the three episodes of Blind Auditions: the "Super Pass" and the "Super Block". The first guaranteed a competitor to go directly to the final, while the second was the classic "Block", which could only be used after the other coaches have turned around, allowing the prevention of another coach from choosing a competitor.[2]
The winner, Simone Grande, was decided through the vote of the audience in the studio.[3] This marked Clementino's first win on the kids' version of the show (his second after his win on the third edition of The Voice Senior). One of the finalists of the season will be selected to represent in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2024.
Coaches
The coaches of the second season of The Voice Kids were Clementino, Gigi D'Alessio and Loredana Bertè, who returned for their second seasons. Alongside them Arisa debuted.

Blind auditions
Blind auditions premiered on November 24 and continued until December 8. Each coach had to have seven artists on their team at the end of the blind auditions, with each coach being given one "Super Block" to use in the entire blind auditions. Additionally, each coach had one "Super Pass". Using a super pass blocked all the other coaches from getting an artist. It also automatically put them in the final on the respective team.
