The Valley’s Got Talent, and You’re Invited to Join the Show!
Contributed by Elizabeth Stout, Mat-Su Community Theatre Arts
Hosted by MASCOTarts and Make A Scene Media, in association with the Glenn Massey Theater.
Get ready, Mat-Su, it’s your time to shine! MASCOTarts and Make A Scene magazine are teaming up to present Valley’s Got Talent, a community-wide showcase inviting performers from every corner of the Valley to step into the spotlight.
This all-ages talent competition is open to absolutely everyone — from the youngest ukulele players to seasoned performers, from family juggling acts to heartfelt solo singers. If you’ve got a talent, big or small, the Valley wants to see it.
How to Enter
Video auditions under two minutes can be submitted online beginning Today through February 1, 2026. A $10 entry fee helps support event production.
After submissions close, the community will take center stage once again—this time as voters! Online voting runs February 22 – March 22, when all audition videos will be posted for public viewing. Rally your friends, family, and neighbors to cheer you on and cast their votes!
Live Semifinals & Finals
The Top 25 entries will advance to the live semifinals on April 29 at the beautiful Glenn Massey Theatre. This high-energy show will be livestreamed, so even those who can’t make it in person can still tune in and vote online.
From there, the top 10 finalists will return the next evening, April 30, for the Grand Final. A thrilling night of live performances judged by a panel of local experts.
Both nights promise laughter, applause, and a powerful reminder of the talent thriving right here in the Mat-Su.
Prizes & Opportunities
The winner of Valley’s Got Talent will receive an exciting prize package filled with gifts from local businesses and sponsors. Even more exciting, they’ll earn a special performance spot at Music in the Park this summer! Talk about a hometown encore.
A Community Celebration
“Valley’s Got Talent is all about celebrating who we are as a community,” says MASCOTarts Executive Director Allen Stout. “We have so many amazing performers of every age and background here in the Valley, and this event gives everyone a stage.”
