How it Works
The journey of finding Hartford’s talent begins with an HGT! audition. Performers selected from a series of community-wide auditions will be chosen go on to Hartford’s Got Talent! LIVE Finale at the Bushnell, to compete and perform in a multi-genre performing arts showcase that celebrates our local talent.
