To accommodate everyone on each audition day, we have two phases of entry: one for individuals under the age of 18yrs and another for those around 18yrs and older.

● Over 18s: Please arrive from 10am.

● Under 18s: Please arrive from 12pm.

While we strive to see you within your booked time slot, we cannot guarantee this.

Please note the eligibility criteria carefully to ensure you meet the requirements click here.

1. Legal Guardian’s Consent:

● We kindly ask that participants under 18yrs bring their legal guardians to the auditions to support you throughout the entire day. If both guardians cannot attend, please bring one guardian and ensure you have permission from the other. If neither guardian can be present, you must be accompanied by a nominated guardian with consent from both legal guardians and a letter detailing the person who is with you in their place.

● A note for legal guardians, please do not bring any additional children other than the minor(s) auditioning themselves.

● It is important that your legal guardians have also reviewed and agree to the terms of this invitation: Terms and Conditions

2. School / College Permissions: If your audition falls on a school/college day, please obtain permission from your school/college to attend. Bring a signed letter from your school/college confirming this permission to the audition or send it to us by replying below.

3. Confidentiality:

● We kindly remind you that this process is confidential. Please do not share any details about your audition publicly, on social media, or with anyone other than your legal guardians or school who must provide consent.

● Your personal information will be handled with care and in compliance with data protection laws.

We understand that this might be a mix of excitement and nerves, and we are here to support you every step of the way. This is a wonderful opportunity, and we appreciate your commitment and enthusiasm. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please do not hesitate to reach out.

4. Informed Consent:

● By attending the audition, you give your consent to potentially being filmed throughout the process for inclusion in our potential documentary series. We understand this can feel daunting, and we're here to support you every step of the way.

● You and your guardians will need to sign a Participant Release. If you have any questions about these forms, we encourage you to seek independent advice to ensure you feel comfortable and informed.

Expectations for the Day:

● Schedule: The day includes queueing for registration, a warm welcome, your actual audition, and a goodbye message at the end, explaining the deadline for selection.

● Filming: The audition may be filmed, and you might be asked to provide brief interviews or additional footage. We appreciate your patience and cooperation.

● Audition: Please note that meeting Simon Cowell is not guaranteed, as he has a dedicated team working throughout the day during this initial stage. In the rare case that you are not seen at all, we will do our best to reschedule your audition, but we cannot make any promises.

● Waiting times: Expect a long day due to the large number of attendees. As the audition date approaches, there will be an open invitation for walk-ins. While food won't be provided, water will be available. Please bring something to eat and be prepared to move around or stand for extended periods. If you are bringing food, please try to avoid anything containing nuts.

● Support: Welfare support will be available throughout the day. If you need any assistance, please don't hesitate to ask one of our DBS & Safeguarding trained team members.

● Chaperoning: For your safety, you will be chaperoned around the building at all times, including bathroom breaks. Please be patient with us; this is for your safety and that of others. If you need to move, ask an official on the day to accompany you.

Although this is a first-come, first-served audition, please note that there is no facility for you to arrive the day before the audition and camp outside. You will be asked to leave not only by the building security but also by the council. So please arrive safely on the days and times detailed for your own safety.
