Young Talent Expo 2025 was a true success!

Over 3400+ people came together on November 8th 2025 for a full day dedicated to inspiring, educating, and empowering the next generation of performers. With performances and interviews on the stage throughout the day, meet and greets, audition panels and exciting, industry-led seminars and workshops, there was something for everybody.

Young Talent Expo welcomed an audience from across Europe and the whole of the UK, from ages 8-21, with strong representation across all age groups - showing just how wide-reaching the event has become!

Why Young Performers Came to YTE

YTE 2025 wasn’t just busy - it was purposeful.

Young performers and their parents attended to:

• Gain industry knowledge and insight

• Learn how to build a performing arts career

• Understand how to secure representation

• Network with industry professionals

• Improve skills through workshops and expert feedback

• Build confidence, inspiration, and clarity for their next steps

From screen acting and musical theatre to voice acting and dance, Young Talent Expo supported a wide range of performance interests with special guests such as Brooke & Jess, the social media duo, James Payton, Kidz Bop, Grace Mouat, Layton Williams and more coming to inspire and educate.

 

Reach, Impact & Industry Support

Young Talent Expo also gives back, with the ever popular Perform 4 Good initiative raising over £800 for the charity Young Minds.

All this couldn't be possible without our incredible panel of Casting Directors and Judges, who volunteered their time to watch young performers and give feedback on their monologues or songs.

The Drama School showcase also returned for 2025, giving graduates the chance to perform to industry professionals and represent their schools, inspiring the next generation.

 

Looking Ahead to 2026

Following the success of 2025, we’re delighted to confirm that Young Talent Expo returns to London on November 7th, 2026.
