The first difference for Season 17 is there are no semi-finals. Each act will have one shot at making it through as 11 acts will perform on one of five qualifier episodes and will be voted on by America. The No. 1 vote getter is automatically through, then the judges will select the second act from among those that placed 2nd, 3rd and 4th. These top 10 finalists will be joined by an 11th act—a “Final Wildcard”— chosen by the viewers in an Instant Save on Wednesday, Sept. 7. This vote will consist of four eliminated Live Show acts, each selected by one of the judges. Then, the Top 11 finalists will compete one last time for America’s vote and the chance to win a $1 million prize during the two-night finale on Sept. 13 and 14. The winner will also perform in “America’s Got Talent Las Vegas LIVE” at the Luxor Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Below are the acts competing tonight with a video of their winning auditions!
