Telecinco premieres 'Factor X' with Ion Aramendi: a look at the mechanics of the renewed musical contest

The famous X Factor returns to Telecinco screens with a renewed format and promises to captivate the Spanish public again. Under the direction of Ion Aramendi and on an impressive set that exceeds 1,000 square meters, the musical competition will feature Lali Expósito, Abraham Mateo, Willy Bárcenas and Vanesa Martín to judge and guide the talents who will compete for victory.

The path begins with the auditions, in which the artists selected during the casting have the opportunity to impress the jury. At the end of each gala, the judges must choose one of the contestants who has received at least three affirmative votes.

In this way, after five galas, each judge will have a team of 20 contestants, to which four other contestants rescued from those previously eliminated will be added.

The stage known as The Chairs represents a real challenge for both the contestants and the judges. In a single show, each jury member must decide which three artists from their team of six will continue in the competition. The tension will be evident, since the judges can change their minds at any time, which will keep the contestants and the public in suspense until the last second.

The live galas will mark the beginning of the eliminations, in which the 12 remaining artists will perform before the public, who will have the opportunity to vote through the Mitele app.

The season will culminate with the grand finale, in which only six talents will survive to compete for the grand prize. After a round of public voting, only three will advance to the final round, where they will perform one last performance. That's when the public will finally vote to decide who deserves to be the winner of X Factor.
