If you’ve got talent, now is the time to show it off.

The “America’s Got Talent” TV show is hosting virtual auditions for the East Coast on Friday as the show gears up for its 16th season.

Because of the covid-19 pandemic, there will not be any in-person auditions this season.

Participants can submit video auditions online by creating an account and uploading a video performance.

“America’s Got Talent” also is hosting virtual auditions this year, where participants can perform for a producer via livestream.

Participants need to have a computer, phone or tablet with Zoom capabilities for their audition.

Each participant will be given up to 90 seconds to audition. All auditions will be recorded.

Groups are encouraged to submit pre-recorded videos rather than gather in person for a performance during the pandemic.

Acts of any age, performing any talent, are welcome to audition. Anyone younger than 18 must have a parent or guardian over the age of 21 with them at all times, including during the Zoom audition process.

Audition spots are limited. Acts can sign up for an audition time online at AGTauditions.com now.
