Renewed!

The final notes of Idols Season 14 are still ringing in the air and already the call for new voices has begun.

Mzansi Magic has confirmed a 15th season for 2019 and the audition dates and venues have been finalised.

If you'd like to enter the new season, this is what you need to know:

Who can audition? 

Anyone who is a South African citizen between the ages of 16 and 30 may enter. Minors must have written consent signed by a parent or guardian. Singers who auditioned in previous seasons are allowed to re-enter, but not anyone from a previous Top 10.

Audition dates and venues 

Pretoria
Date:
 Saturday, 26 January 2019
Venue: State Theatre

Durban
Date: Saturday, 9 February 2019
Venue: North Beach Amphitheatre

Johannesburg
Date: Saturday, 16 February 2019
Venue: Ellis Park

Cape Town
Date: Saturday, 2 March 2019
Venue: Century City

What time should I get to the auditions and what should I bring?

The queues are often long, so get there early. Registration will open at 08h00. Take your ID or proof of identification, some water to keep hydrated, food and a song that suits your voice. 

What is the prize package for Idols this year?

The full prize package is still to be confirmed, but the winner will win a recording contract amongst other big prizes.
 

Flash facts

Word from Mzansi Magic is that there might be pop-up auditions in other regions. We'll update you if these happen.

The Season 15 premiere date hasn't been confirmed yet - we'll keep you posted on this too.

If you're going for it... good luck!
