American Idol comes to Disney World Florida

Walt Disney World Resort in Florida has introduced The American Idol Experience based on the hit television show.


The attraction allows Disney’s Hollywood Studios guests to audition onstage while their fellow guests cheer them on from the audience and vote for their favourite singer.


Before they can appear on the show, guests are asked to perform in front of a Disney’s Hollywood Studios casting director to see if they have “star quality”. The successful singers then receive performance coaching and have their hair and make-up done before appearing on stage.


The winners receive a front-of-the-line pass to audition in front of the real American Idol judges.


Launched on February 14, the show takes place in a 1,000 seat indoor theatre with neon lights and a backdrop similar to the set of American Idol in California.


For more information or to arrange an audition, see the Disneyworld website.
