What Is the Format of the Show Moving Forward?
Over the next five weeks, the above acts will take the stage for a chance to make it to the AGT Season 18 finale. Fans will be allowed to vote for their favorite acts overnight on Tuesday, with the results being announced on Wednesday nights.
Each week, only two acts will advance to the Finals for their change to be named the winner and earn the $1 million prize. So make sure you vote for your favorite acts after their next performance — it could be their last chance to make it to the finale.
The Season 18 finale will air over two nights — September 26 and September 27.
