Remember when former Idol winners Jordin Sparks, Kris Allen, and Ruben Studdard came to Disney Springs to kick off the start of open auditions for @AmericanIdol? It is a moment we won’t forget, and we have been anticipating the start of the show ever since.
And now, the wait is over! The journey begins this Sunday, March 11th at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
American Idol judge Katy Perry visited Walt Disney World Resort in between her concerts during Witness: The Tour, and gave us a little preview on how amazing this season will be. Check out the video below:
We are excited to see how some of our Disney Springs auditioners do with Katy and her fellow judges, Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie.
