National contest TeenStar 2017 audition dates now released around the UK

TeenStar, the UK’s only competition exclusively for pre-teens and teenagers, have now released their audition dates which will commence from February next year.

New next year for TeenStar is a dance category. They are now welcoming pre-teen and teenage dancers from around the UK on the lookout to find the dancers with the best moves. So if there are any aspiring movers and shakers out there this is your chance.

TeenStar is a nationwide search for the finest young talent the UK has to offer,  it attracts over 9,000 entries every year, and for previous years the Grand Final has been held at none other than the Birmingham NEC and London’s O2.

TeenStar was founded by Future Music, the company behind the discovery of artists such as Warner Music’s Birdy, Columbia Record’s Lucy Spraggan, Jacob Banks, Union J’s Jaymi Hensley and Karen Harding, both of which are now signed to Sony Music and Universal Music Group, and Emily Middlemas who is currently storming her way through The X Factor.

There is a prize pool worth thousands of pounds as well as a chance to feature in the competition’s media partner top teen magazine Shout Magazine. Contestants also have the chance to win prizes throughout the competition, such as recording studio time with some of the UK’s top producers, singing lessons and extensive promotion on YouTube.

The singing and dance auditions dates and competition events are split into three age categories – the ‘Late Teens’ (16-19), the ‘Mid Teens’ (13-15) and a special category to search for the stars of tomorrow; the ‘Pre-Teens (Under 12’s).
