Scarborough's Search for a Star heat two contestants light up Roscoe Rooms

From incredible vocals to confident stage presence, the talent showed up and wowed the crowd from start to finish.

“It’s been amazing to see how much the event has grown already,” said Tyler Smith, owner of Making Tracks and one of the event organisers.

“Heat 2 raised the bar – you could feel the buzz in the room.

"Everyone was there to support each other and celebrate what Scarborough has to offer.”

Helping make the tough decisions on the night was professional Shannon Rewcroft, who brought her experience and sharp eye to the judging panel.

And she had her work cut out – the talent was off the scale.

“We’re not just running a competition – we’re building a platform,” added Devan Kellett, owner of Kellett’s Performing Arts.

“It’s about giving local performers a stage, building confidence, and also using that spotlight to raise awareness for causes that matter.”

Throughout the heats and the upcoming final, the event is raising money in aid of Prostate Cancer UK, while also spotlighting and supporting the amazing talent in Scarborough and surrounding areas.

Every ticket, every donation, every cheer – it all helps.

A huge thank you goes out to our sponsors, SWC, Filey Beach Cafe, Newby Dental Practice & PQA Scarborough, whose support is helping this event grow bigger and better with each round.

And thank you to everyone who came along to cheer, clap, and create such a brilliant atmosphere.

The Grand Final is set for December 6 at Scarborough College.

With finalists already chosen and Lamorna Roberts announced as the exciting wildcard, this is shaping up to be a night to remember.

“Honestly, we can’t wait for the final,” said Tyler.

“The talent, the energy, the community – it’s everything we hoped this would be and more.”
