The X Factor NZ was a reality music competition based on the original UK series. It premiered on 21 April 2013 and was broadcast on Three. The series featured singers aged 14 and over competing for a recording contract with Sony Music Entertainment New Zealand. Contestants were divided into four categories: Boys under 25, Girls under 25, Over 25s, and Groups. The show aimed to discover and promote new musical talent through performances judged by a panel of industry professionals.
The judging panel included Daniel Bedingfield, Melanie Blatt, Ruby Frost, Stan Walker, Shelton Woolright, Natalie Bassingthwaighte, and Willy Moon. The series was hosted by Dominic Bowden. Each episode typically ran for about 60 minutes, showcasing auditions, live performances, and eliminations throughout the season.
