As part of its nationwide search for new talent, the casting team is making a stop in Munich this week. Auditions in the Bavarian capital will take place in the north of the city.
RTL recently confirmed the new judging panel for the upcoming season. Pop veteran Dieter Bohlen, 71, will once again be on the jury. He will be joined by rapper Bushido, 46, and party singer Isi Glück, known for her performances in the Mallorca Schlager scene. However, the newly announced lineup drew mixed reactions online, with many viewers expressing criticism on social media.
Casting in Munich Scheduled for 17 July
While the debate over the jury continues, the application phase for the new season is already in full swing. The open casting tour is currently traveling across Germany. After a stop in Cologne last Saturday and another scheduled for Nuremberg on Wednesday, the team will arrive in Munich on Thursday, 17 July 2025.
The casting will take place at the Leonardo Royal Hotel Munich, located at Moosacher Straße 90 in the Schwabing-Freimann district. Applicants can audition between 2:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.
