How You Can Audition for America's Got Talent In-Person This February
If you think you have what it takes to perform on the AGT stage, now is your time.
"This moment could change your life."
Those are Simon Cowell's signature words, declared just before an America's Got Talent Act wears their heart on their sleeve for the entire country to see and auditions for that $1 million grand prize.
AGT auditions is an Act's make or break, bringing them one step closer to a coveted spot at the show's Superstars Live residency at the Luxor. It's the opportunity to have an unforgettable Golden Buzzer moment like Kodi Lee, or maybe even go viral like Sacred Riana. There's also the chance you could make Cowell (and the rest of the Judges and Host Terry Crews) cry with joy or laughter.
So if you've watched from you couch or the live studio audience, but have long dreamed of stepping on that stage yourself, now is your time to shine. Auditions for AGT are officially open, and NBC Insider will fill you in on everything to know about the process, including special tips from those who know best: AGT winners.

"I would say for anyone who's wanting to be on the show, expect to be stretched and pushed to your max potential," Season 16 champion Dustin Tavella told NBC Insider. "I always tell people to go on, have a blast, and be yourself. Just be ready to learn and soak up as much as you can. Because this is an experience that you're never ‘gonna forget."
