Get ready, Muskoka – the stage is calling. Contestant registration and virtual auditions for Muskoka’s Got Talent open November 27, 2025. The event, formerly called Huntsville’s Got Talent, invites performers from across the region to take their shot at the spotlight. Musicians, dancers, comedians, poets, and performers of all kinds – and all ages – are encouraged to register for their chance to compete in the community talent showcase.
The Top 10 Finalists will perform live at the Algonquin Theatre in Huntsville, Ontario, on
Saturday, February 28, 2026. First Prize is $1,500, Second Prize is $1,000, and Third
Prize is $500.
“This is your moment. We offer a welcoming, supportive space where people of all ages
and abilities can share their talent in front of a community that really cheers each other
on,” says Jennifer Jerrett, event coordinator and Community Engagement Specialist for
Community Living Huntsville. “We celebrate everything from music and dance to
comedy, poetry, and other unique acts. And if auditions feel a little intimidating, we’ve
got helpful tips and guidance on our website to make it easier. We can’t wait to see what
you bring to the show.”
In addition to bigger prizes, this year’s event will also include a live People’s Choice
vote and a surprise judge hidden in the audience.
Audience tickets for the 2026 show are on sale now, too, giving everyone the chance to
cheer on their family, friends, and neighbours.
Proceeds from the event will support Community Living Huntsville and the not-for-profit
organization’s affordable housing initiatives for people with developmental disabilities
and the families who access its services.
Full details on how to register, audition, and purchase show tickets are available online
at MuskokasGotTalent.com. Deadline for contestant registration and auditions is
