Following months of planning and preparation Limerick’s Got Talent 2010 is ready to take to the stage.

The competition which is in its second year gives previously unknown singers, dancers, bands and variety acts an opportunity to display their talents to a live audience and a celebrity panel of judges.

Show producer Mike O’Connor tells us “We have had great interest in this years show with forty applications to hand which we have allocated spots on our heats which run over three nights from Tues 17th to Thurs 19th August at Punch’s Hotel. Each night three winners will be chosen by the judges with the audience choosing one act to join them in the Grand Final on Friday 20th August”.

Prizes for the competition include €500.00 for the winner, an Applebox Media Promotional DVD, plus the Jeff Power memorial trophy with the runner-up receiving €100.00 Photographic portfolio from Morning Star Photography and a trophy. There will also be a special prize for the best entertainment act from PJR Services.

Tickets for the shows are now available from RK Entertainment, Parnell St, at Punch’s Hotel reception or from Mike O’Connor 0851367594, reasonably priced at €5.00 for Adults & €3.00 children under 12 for the heats with the Grand Final costing €10.00 for Adults and €5.00 for children. All proceeds for this year’s project will go to the MS Society, Limerick who will be helping with front of house duties for the week.
