The X Factor Thailand () is reality television music competition to find new singing talent, contested by aspiring singers drawn from public auditions. It was first aired on September 1, 2017 and runs every Monday at 8:15 p.m. after broadcasting 3 episodes on Friday at 9:00 p.m.
Format
Categories
The show is primarily concerned with identifying singing talent, though appearance, personality, stage presence and dance routines are also an important element of many performances. Each judge is assigned one of four categories: "Boys", "Girls", "Over 30s", and "Groups" (including duos). Through the live shows, the judges act as mentors to their category, helping to decide song choices, styling and staging, while judging contestants from other categories.
Stages
There are five stages to the competition: Stage 1: Auditions (these auditions decide who will sing in front of the judges) Stage 2: Boot camp Stage 3: Four-chair challenge Stage 4: Judges' houses Stage 5: Semi final Stage 6: Live shows (finals)
