Planning on auditioning for the next season of American Idol? Season 17 auditions are officially OPEN. Check out the schedule below.
Following the success of the first season of American Idol on ABC, which crowned Iowa-native Maddie Poppe on its May 21 grand finale, the nationwide search for the next superstar kicks off Saturday August 25. The Idol Bus will kick off simultaneously in Orlando, Florida, and San Diego, California.
The producers of AMERICAN IDOL can’t wait to hear what you’ve got this summer. You can audition online and in-person—or both!
Got questions? Click the FAQ page. Any singer born between June 2,
1989 and June 1, 2003 and was not one of the Top 10 contestants on Season 1 of the Program on ABC is ELIGIBLE to audition. In other words: Hey Mara Justine! Jonny Brenns! Marcio Donaldson! Garrett Jacobs! You just missed the Top 10 cut, but feel free to audition again!
