BRITAIN'S Got Talent 2025 is drawing to a close, with eight excellent acts having already qualified for the series showpiece.
Two semi-finalists can still make it all the way to the live grand finale — here's everything you need to know so you don't miss it.
ITV bosses have confirmed the date for the highly anticipated Britain's Got Talent 2025 final.
Running for a whopping two hours and 45 minutes, the Britain's Got Talent: Live Final gives fans the chance to vote for for a winner throughout the night.
Judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli will be on hand to give their final thoughts — as will influencer KSI.
The Sun revealed KSI would be back for both the live semi-final and final.
When is the Britain's Got Talent: Live Final 2025?
The highly anticipated showpiece of Britain’s Got Talent 2025 is officially scheduled to air on Saturday, 31st May.
The sensational spectacle will kick off at 7pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
It marks the culmination of the show's 18th series, which featured a new format for both auditions and live shows.
BGT 2025's new schedule
This year’s BGT started earlier than usual, with auditions commencing in February and live shows running weekly from late April.
Unlike previous years, where the semi-finals were broadcast on consecutive nights, the 2025 series spread its semi-finals across several weeks, each one airing on a Saturday evening.
This change allowed BGT to occupy an extended Saturday night slot throughout spring.
Road to the Live Final
The 2025 series introduced a significant twist: the Golden Buzzer was available during the semi-finals — not just the auditions.
Each night, a judge or hosts Ant & Dec could send one act directly to the final, bypassing the public vote.
Other finalists were determined by the public vote.
As of May 22, 2025, the confirmed finalists are:
- Blackouts (Golden Buzzer)
- Olly Pearson (Golden Buzzer)
- Jasmine Rice (Golden Buzzer)
- Joseph Charm (Golden Buzzer)
- Vinnie McKee (Public vote)
- Stacey Leadbeatter (Public vote)
- Ping Pong Pang (Public vote)
- Hear Our Voices (Public vote)
Despite being voted out, Max Fox also dropped a big clue that he will make a surprise comeback in the final.
Following his elimination from the show, he wrote on Instagram: “What a ride!
“Last night my Britain’s Got Talent journey came to an end — but I’ve never felt prouder.
“From standing in the audience with a dream in my heart… to singing on that stage in front of millions, this experience has been nothing short of life-changing.
"I’ve waited 19 years for that moment — and every second of it was worth it.
“To everyone who voted, shared kind words, and believed in me — thank you from the bottom of my heart.
"Your support has meant more than you’ll ever know.
“This might be the end of BGT for now… or maybe not — wildcard, anyone?”
The full list will be confirmed after the fifth semi-final, which takes place on Saturday, May 24, 2025 — a week before the final.
On May 31 we will see the remaining acts compete for the coveted crown of BGT champion.
The winner will receive a massive cash prize of £250,000, as well as the opportunity to perform at the Royal Variety Performance.
