THE Voice is back for 2019 - and there's some changes in the new series.

Here's everything you need to know about the singing competition...

When does The Voice 2019 start on ITV?

The Voice 2019 starts TODAY, Saturday January 5th at 8pm on ITV.

The format of the show is that contestants take part in blind auditions and the judges spin round in their chairs if they want to mentor them.

For the first time ever, The Voice will allow trios to audition, rather than limiting it to solo and duo performers.

Who are the judges of The Voice 2019?

The 2019 series of The Voice will see the return of the usual coaching panel.

Olly Murs, will.i.am, Jennifer Hudson and Sir Tom Jones will be back to find the next singing star.

Olly said: "...Last year I managed to get seduced and picked some entertaining performers.

"The other coaches might think they have worked me out but I’m coming back with a bang, just you wait!”

Jennifer added: “I'm so happy to be re-joining my coaches at The Voice UK. I’m ready and excited to discover some beautiful voices.”

In 2018 Tom Jones mentored the winner Ruti Olajugbagbe.

Who is hosting The Voice 2019?

Emma Willis will return to host the show in 2019.

She has previously presented Celebrity Big Brother, Big Brother and The Voice Kids.

On the new series, she said: "I’m so happy we’re about to get going all over again.

"I’ve learnt to expect the unexpected with performances, some make me wanna bust a move, some give me goosebumps, and some make me cry like a baby!"
