Young Local Super Stars Hit The Stage

This Sunday, 13 October, the annual Young Whitsundays Got Talent event is happening at Northerlies Beach Bar and Grill.

The event showcases the amazing young talent we have in the Whitsunday and at this year’s event there will be three categories - under 12, 13 – 17 and 18 – 21 for soloists, duos and bands. 

Each entrant will perform two songs but if they reach the Grand Final they will get an additional one, three in total.

The day will be jam packed with hits, tunes and good times as the Whitsunday youth hit the stage and feel like rockstars.

Last year’s winners, the 2024 winner of North Queensland NQLD Battle of the Young Bands Gleezus, and 2022 winner will be special guests on the day. 

Organiser and coordinator Paula Hovey is extremely excited about this year’s event.

“We have new faces, contestants entering, with great prizes to be won,” said Paula.

“At the moment we have 8 bands, 3 duos and 6 solo acts.

“We are expecting another full house to support our local super stars.”

“Also, we have, fabulous prizes to be won on our raffle worth over $4000.”

Admission for the 2024 Young Whitsundays Got Talent will be a gold coin donation.
