OPEN auditions for the 10th series of Britain's Got Talent will take place at St George's Hall in Liverpool next month.

Held on Saturday, November 22, this will be your chance to secure a sought-after audition in front of the show's judging panel Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and David Walliams when they visit the city.

So dust off your tap shoes, brush up on your tricks, think outside of the box and get down to the auditions.

Looking ahead to the auditions, Simon Cowell said: "I can't believe that in 2016 we are going to celebrate 10 series of Britain's Got Talent.

"So, let's make this a special year and we want the best of the best to come and audition.

"There will be lots of surprises in store!"

Amanda Holden said: "After a decade of searching for talent, the standard never fails to surprise us each year with the breadth and variety of acts out there just waiting to be discovered and like every year I cannot wait to find out what the Great British public have in store for us and what act will surprise me the most."

Alesha Dixon said: "It's always exciting to see who or what is going to turn up on stage as there are so many amazing and unusual talents, but to find our 10th winner adds another level of pressure!

"We've had brilliant winners over the years and I hope we can find another incredible act that can really rise to the occasion. We have reached a milestone!"

David Walliams said: "I'm so happy to be back with Simon and the girls, especially as we look for our 10th winner. I'm hoping to find something extraordinary.”

The show is open to any performer of any age, with any talent - all they need is a skill and star quality which they think will impress.

Anything goes from magicians to comedians, drag acts to singers and acrobats to animals. Aspiring acts can apply now via www.itv.com/talent and register for one of the audition days.
