What happens

Megasztár – Voice of the Year is a Hungarian music talent show that started in 2003 on TV2. While it is widely considered an unlicensed clone of the British television show Pop Idol (and sometimes even referred to as Hungarian Idol), TV2 maintains that it is a distinct format created by SBS management member Christoph Buerge. The sixth season was the last, because TV2 bought the license of The Voice. On 21 February 2024, TV2 announced that after 12 years, Megasztár would return to the screen with a new season.
