Looks like the next American Idol could be from PHILADELPHIA! The show has come here a few times in its past, but it feels like it’s been a while since they came! Auditions for the upcoming season will be held on Thursday, September 6th. You have to be a legal U.S. resident between the ages of 15 and 28 (is that new?) The auditions will be held in Franklin Square in Philly. You can sign up for an open call audition right here. If you think you could be the next idol (like Maddie Poppe who won the most recent season), definitely go out to Franklin Square on September 6th and give it a shot!
