A new talent contest is coming to Oxfordshire. Talent Oxford is a countywide event where the finalists get to perform their acts in front of a packed audience and celebrity judge Rachel Adedeji – as seen on X Factor 2009.
Young people aged 5-18 have the chance to audition on the 8th or 9th May at the Oxford Castle Unlocked venue. There are absolutely no rules when it comes to your talent – the auditions are simply open to any act from any Oxfordshire school or college.
The hundreds of hopefuls will be whittled down by a panel of expert judges to just 16 finalists over five categories: Best Dance Act, Best Vocal Act, Best Group Act, Most Original Act and Aspiring Star Award.
The final will take place on October 2nd at the Theatre at Headington where Rachel Adedeji will join the panel of audition judges and perform live.
Each category winner and their school will win a prestigious award and the acts will also win £100 Cash Prize and a Talent Oxford Goodie Bag worth over £500.
Whatever it is you do then we want to hear from you! All acts must pre register online at www.talentoxford.co.uk and book their preferred audition time. Hurry as spaces are limited. No acts will be accepted on the day of the auditions.
