The thirteenth season of The Voice Australia began airing on 19 August 2024. On 18 October 2023, it was confirmed that Seven Network had picked up the show for its thirteenth season, set to broadcast on 19 August 2024. On 6 February 2024, it was revealed on the show's social media that only Guy Sebastian would return as a coach from the previous season for the thirteenth season. At the same time, it was announced that LeAnn Rimes, Kate Miller-Heidke, and Adam Lambert would debut as coaches, replacing Rita Ora, Jessica Mauboy, and Jason Derulo, respectively. Sonia Kruger returned as host for her ninth season.
Similar to the previous three seasons, the finale was pre-recorded and the winner was determined by a viewer poll. Reuben De Melo was declared the winner, marking LeAnn Rimes' first and only win as a coach. Rimes became the fourth coach to win on their debut season following Seal, will.i.am and Jessie J. Rimes also became the second coach to win in their exclusive season, following will.i.am in season 3. Additionally, De Melo became the first winning artist that had a coach use the Ultimate Block in their blind audition (from LeAnn Rimes).

Blind auditions In the blind auditions, the coaches complete their teams with 12 members each. The block returned from last season, but with a twist. Each coach now only has one main block that they can use to block another coach. However, each coach gets one additional block, dubbed the Ultimate Block, which blocks all other turned coaches, defaulting the artist to their team. With either block, the coach who is blocked is null and invalid to pitch for the artist. Like last season, a coach can block at any time, even during their pitch, as long as the coach turned their chair.

Battles The battles aired from 15 through 29 September. Each coach forms duets from two artists on their team. Of the two artists, the coach declares one the winner of the battle. The winner moves on directly to the knockouts. The loser of the battle is either eliminated, "saved" by their coach, or "stolen" by another coach to move on to the knockouts.
