Season 9 Coaches
Right after the end of the eighth season, the series was renewed for a ninth season and was announced that all coaches would return the new season.[2] Darren McMullen, who exited as host following the conclusion of the fourth season, returns as host, alongside new co-host Renee Bargh, following the exit of Sonia Kruger.[3][4]
In June 2020 the Sydney Morning Herald reported that Marcia Hines and The Veronicas were to fill in as guest mentors for Rowland and Boy George respectively, who will be mentoring their acts remotely from the US and UK because of travel restrictions in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[5]
