The second season of the Indonesian reality talent show The Voice Indonesia premiered February 26, 2016 on the RCTI network in the 9:00 p.m, slot immediately following Tukang Bubur Naik Haji The Series. This is the first aired by RCTI, after the previous broadcaster Indosiar dropped the show after its first one season due to poor ratings. Television personality and Indonesian Idol host Daniel Mananta was appointed as the show's new host, with Ari Lasso, Agnez Mo, Kaka "Slank", and Judika selected as coaches. Coach Ariel "Noah" served as an advisor for all teams during the knockout rounds. The winner of the knockout rounds received a 1 billion rupiahs recording contract with Universal Music Indonesia and a Toyota Yaris AT. The show aired Fridays and Saturdays at 9:00 p.m. Starting on April 1, the show aired every Friday at 9:00 p.m.
On June 20, 2016, Mario G. Klau from Team Kaka "Slank" was announced as the winner, making him the first-ever stolen artist to win the entire Indonesian season.

Format The series consists of four phases:
The Blind Auditions Four judges/coaches, all famous musicians, choose teams of contestants through a blind audition process. Each judge has the length of the contestants' performance to decide if he or she wants that singer on his or her team; if two or more judges want the same singer then the singer chooses which coach they want to work with.
Battle round Each team of singers was mentored and developed by their coach. In the second stage, the coaches have two of their team members battle against each other by singing the same song, with the coach choosing which team member will advance to the next stage. However, the contestant who loses the battle round can be stolen by other coach. Like the Blind auction, If two or more coaches attempt to steal a single contestant, the contestant chooses which coach they will work with.
Knockout round Like the battle round, each team of singers was mentored and developed by their coach prior to the round beginning. The Knockout Round determines which three artists from each team will advance to the final round of competition, the Live Shows. In this round, after an artist performs, he or she will sit in one of three seats above the stage. The first three artists performing from each team will sit down, but once the fourth artist performs, the coach has the choice of replacing the fourth artist with any artist sitting down, or eliminating them immediately. Once all artists have performed, those who remain seated will advance to the Live Shows.
Live performance shows In the final phase, the remaining contestants will compete against each other in live broadcasts. The television audience will help to decide who moves on. When one team member remains for each coach, the contestants compete against each other in the finale, where the winner is selected.
