Simon Cowellโs ITV talent show has opened applications to audition for the 18th series of BGT in 2025. BGT hopefuls can send in a video of themselves to producers online, via WhatsApp and even by post. Or they can choose to nominate somebody else to take part in the show.
Auditions are taking place earlier than ever with in-person dates for London auditions announced for September time.
The champion of Britainโs Got Talent gets a prize of ยฃ250,000 in cash and the opportunity to be a part of the Royal Variety Performance at the Royal Albert Hall. Past winners include Paul Potts, who won the very first BGT back in 2008, dance troupe Diversity, Norwegian comedian Viggo Venn, and most recently singer Sydnie Christmas.
If you think you have got what it takes to win Britainโs Got Talent and dazzle Cowell, judges Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, Bruno Tonioli and hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, here is what you need to do.
How to apply for BGT
The fastest and easiest way to audition for the show is to send a video on WhatsApp to BGT. The talent showโs number is 07387361518 and videos should be less than five minutes long. Applicants should remember to send their name and location in their message.
Register for auditions
You can sign up to perform an in-person audition for BGT by registering your details with the official casting company for the show. After registering you can also send a link to an existing YouTube clip or video.
Hopefuls can post their showreel or DVD to the Britainโs Got Talent office in London but must remember to include their full name, date of birth, email address and telephone number as well as a description of their act.
This year auditions are happening earlier than ever. Open auditions in London will take place at The Kia Oval on 14 Saturday and 15 Sunday September from 10:00am until 17:00pm. The public can simply turn up on the day.
