Let’s see the talent among young people in on the virtual Youth Got Talent Stage 2023! During JOTA-JOTI, you'll find a playlist of talents here to enjoy.

We’re taking video submissions of performances by young rockstars, adventurers, Michelin star chefs, and more, for the virtual Youth Got Talent stage at JOTA-JOTI 2023!

Select talent videos will be featured in a public playlist on the JOTA-JOTI campsite during the event - and a few will even be featured during out live show!

SUBMIT YOUR TALENT IN 4 STEPS:

1. FILM YOURSELF performing music, dancing, making a favourite recipe, or demonstrating an otherwise awesome skill. Don’t forget to introduce yourself at the start (name, age, country and talent).
   
   Make sure your video doesn’t include any watermarks or pre-recorded copywritten songs. Your original covers of songs are allowed. See the FAQ below for more on video requirements.
    
2. FILL OUT THIS FORM with your details. If you submit your video without this, it won't be considered for the Stage.
    
3. Finally, hurry and SUBMIT YOUR VIDEO HERE before the deadline:
   SUNDAY, 15 OCTOBER (end of day in your local time)
    
4. Come back here or check the JOTA-JOTI campsite from 20-22 October to watch all of the amazing talents!

WHO IS ELIGIBLE?

  • Parental consent must be given for any young person under 18 years old who is featured

WHAT ARE THE VIDEO REQUIREMENTS?

Note that if you include a song with copyrights, our team will have to edit the music on your video to make sure your video can air without being removed for copyright infringement.

Otherwise, we don't apply strict video requirements, however your video will likely appear best on the playlist if you film it in landscape (horizontally). Do your best to make sure the video picture and sound are clear. To help with this, make sure your lens in clean, you have good lighting, and you aren't somewhere with a lot of background noise (including wind).

Finally, we prefer short videos, so please aim to keep it between 1-3 minutes.

HOW WILL THE TALENTS BE SELECTED?

Talents to be featured on the campsite and live show will be chosen based on multiple factors, including diversity of talents and regions. Our team of JOTA-JOTI staff and volunteers will do their best to ensure that participants can watch a variety of talents by young people from all parts of the world.

Also, all submissions must have followed the four steps listed above to be considered. They must also the values and principles of the Scout Promise & Law, and follow Safe From Harm guidelines.
