TF1 Reschedules “The Voice Kids” Finale to Accommodate Restos du Coeur 40th Anniversary Celebration
TF1 will postpone the broadcast of “The Voice Kids” season 11 finale, originally scheduled for this Saturday evening, September 28th, to Saturday, October 5th at 9:10 pm. The shift is due to a special charity event commemorating the 40th anniversary of Les Restos du Coeur (Restaurants of the Heart), the association founded by Coluche in 1985.
The network is dedicating the evening of September 28th to a prime-time event featuring michèle Laroque, Kad Merad, Gérard Jugnot, Mimie Mathy, Claudia Bagbo, Thierry Marx, Samuel Étienne, and Mohamed Bouhafsi, all participating in fundraising efforts for the association.Les Restos du Coeur distributed 163 million meals to 1.3 million beneficiaries in 2024 alone, highlighting the continued and immense need for support. The broadcast will also include a documentary, “Les Enfoirés, Le Doc,” featuring over fifty testimonies and a rare interview with Jean-Jacques Goldman discussing the origins of the organization’s anthem.
The scheduling change directly impacts coach Soprano, who has a pre-scheduled concert at the Zénith de Rouen on September 27th, making his participation in a live finale unfeasible. TF1 will also air “Your 40 Favorite Titles of the Enfoirés” on TMC, compiled from public votes on TF1+, and Les Enfoirés will hold their annual concert at Accor Arena in March 2026, welcoming a new participant from “Star Academy.”
