TALENTED groups and individuals from around the county are set to go head-to-head tonight with the return of Lakes Got Talent.

The talent contest started way back in 2012 by James Farrow, who had started working as a runner on Britain’s Got Talent in 2011, falling ‘completely in love’ with the idea of bringing a taste of the hit show back to his hometown.

Lakes Got Talent will return to Ulverston’s Coro Hall tonight at 7pm. It is the first Lakes Got Talent event since it came to a halt in 2017.

The judges met with James to decide who would be returning for the anniversary show, which sees finalists from previous competitions fight for the top spot.

Those returning includes Voce, Megan Rampton, Carlisle Dance Academy, Stephenson School Of Dance, Revelation, Chris Barker, Sugarfoot, Gabrielle Dams, Anthony Collins, When All Else Fails, Faye Bowness, Tokari School Of Dance, KS Musicals, Sasha Johnson, and Connor Wood of Perfect Fourth.

This year Lakes Got Talent will be raising funds for MND.
