The Blind Auditions
The castings for the fifth season took place in February and March 2015, but were not shown on television. The Blind Auditions were recorded at the Studio Adlershof in Berlin from July 6 to 9, 2015 and were broadcast on eight television programs from October 15 to November 6, 2015. The jury selected 68 candidates, including four duos and two trios. Each team was filled with 17 participants.
The Battles
The Battle Round was recorded on 1 and 2 September 2015 in Berlin and broadcast from 12 to 20 November 2015 in four episodes. Within each team, the 17 candidates were divided into seven one-on-one duels and a triple battle. The respective coach chose one of the Battle participants as the winner and came directly into the Knockout. As seen in the third and fourth season, the losing candidates could have the chance to be stolen by another coaches. All four coaches each took two candidates from the triple battle, so after the Battles, ten participants per team went into the Knockout.
