Are You the Next Durham Fair Idol?

The Entertainment Committee of the Durham Fair will host it’s eighth annual talent shows. It is an opportunity to perform on the Center Stage at the Durham Fair as one of the fair's Idols. The finalists have all enjoyed the opportunity, win or lose, to share their talent with their friends, families and several thousand fair goers.

Auditions are on 9/10 at the United Churches of Durham.

Many of the candidates have returned a following year.

"Since we have been doing this show, many contestants have said how much they ‘just love to perform.'" Fair spokesman Bill Currlin said. "We hope you feel this way, because we are fair goers also and we enjoy having you and watching you grow with us.

"We have had an overwhelming interest in these two shows and are hopeful that this application finds you in time to jump in and tryout."

There are two opportunities to participate. The Traditional Talent Show is open to all performers up their year of High School graduation. (Approx 18). The Classic Talent Show is open to all other performers.

Consideration for the contestants is not taken lightly. Every performance will be evaluated with talent and hard work in mind.

The selection committee looks to entertain the fair audience. They do this by selecting a variety of acts that will fit together to make one exciting event for this audience.
