What's New
Ready For Your Moment in the Spotlight?
Get ready to grab a microphone and sing your heart out at ESPN Zone’s National Anthem competition, coming Monday, May 12 at 6 p.m. One lucky winner will get to sing the national anthem at an upcoming Chicago White Sox game!
Enter today: Just stop by ESPN Zone’s SportsCenter Studio Store no later than May 7th to reserve your spot in the competition or call (312) 644-ESPN x335. Hurry, space is limited! Note: walk-in contestants on the night of the competition will be accepted based on availability.
How do I win? At the event, each contestant will sing 30 seconds of any song (a cappella, and not the national anthem, please). After all the 30-second performances, our judging panel will narrow the field to five finalists, each of whom will take the stage once more, this time to sing the full Star Spangled Banner. The judges will provide feedback and fans will get to vote, so come out on May 12th and support your favorite singing star!
Please note: Contestants must be 13 years or older to submit an entry. If under the age of 18 years, the entry must be signed by a parent or legal guardian. Additional rules and conditions apply. For complete Official Rules, stop by ESPN Zone or send a self-addressed, stamped #10 envelope to: ESPN Zone National Anthem Competition, 43 East Ohio Street, Chicago IL 60611.
