Sponsors Urgently Needed To Boost The Reach Of Star Search Overstrand

Besides empowering young local musicians, singers, dancers and other talented performers, Star Seach Overstrand and its contestants aim to inspire others to follow their dreams!

 
What is Star Search Overstrand

Reminiscent of America’s Got Talent but with a smidgen of the budget, Star Search Overstrand is a platform for talented youth to showcase their talents.

Auditions are underway with dates in Stanford, Gansbaai, Kleinmond and Hermanus. There is no entry fee, and the finals of Star Search Overstrand will happen at The Stanford Festival of Community Arts on the 7th of October, 2023. 

 
Opportunity To Help Grow Future Performers

Cash prizes are up for grabs, and the top performers will enjoy mentorship and performance opportunities. 

For maximum exposure, this year’s Star Search Overstrand journey will air on Cape Town TV as a short documentary to ensure maximum exposure!

 
Urgent Sponsors Needed - You Can Make A Difference!

The event’s organisers and community groups are collaborating to offer an upskilling opportunity through this talent competition. The series aims to showcase the contestants' inspirational journeys from auditions to the grand finale. 

To help make the event a success, Star Search Overstrand urgently needs partners and sponsors to maximise its reach. 

If you are in a position to partner with or sponsor the event, Rockpool Media and the Stanford Festival of Community Arts want to hear from you!
