Applications Open For Students Got Talent

Adelaide Festival Centre will celebrate the return of Students Got Talent, the talent show for both local and international tertiary students, to the Dunstan Playhouse stage on 7 December. Applications to enter are now open.

Hosted by Adelaide comedian and ABC Radio Adelaide host Jason Chong, Students Got Talent is offering over $2,000 in prize money to be won.

Now in its fourth year, Students Got Talent has seen students rap, sing, dance and rollerblade across Adelaide Festival Centre stages. Past participants have gone onto perform at OzAsia Festival’s Lucky Beats stage at Elder Park, Festival Plaza events and StudyAdelaide’s Student Fest.

Adelaide Festival Centre CEO & Artistic Director Douglas Gautier AM: “We encourage students to apply for Students Got Talent at Adelaide Festival Centre. We look forward to welcoming students back to the stage to showcase their talents and recognise the importance of encouraging and supporting Adelaide’s international and local students through arts and entertainment.”

StudyAdelaide Chief Executive Jane Johnston: “Students Got Talent is a beloved event on our international student calendar. It’s a wonderful way to showcase how our state welcomes international students to Adelaide and celebrates their diverse talents alongside other contributions they make to the community.

“It’s always a fantastic show and, as ever, we look forward to seeing the amazing and often unique talent that is unearthed this year.”

The Honourable Andrea Michaels MP, Minister for Arts: “The Malinauskas Government values the talent and creativity of South Australia’s young people and Students Got Talent is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate their skills and artistic contribution to our state. It is vital that we invest in pathways that nurture young artists’ development and I look forward to seeing what Students Got Talent 2024 has in store for us.”

Other upcoming family friendly shows at Adelaide Festival Centre include Painting and Culture with Iteka, OzAsia Festival fan favourite Moon Lantern Trail and Peter and the Starcatcher.
