The Milwaukee auditions for "America's Got Talent" will be held this weekend, Dec. 3 at the Potawatomi Hotel & Casino

Hundreds of people from all over Wisconsin and surrounding states are warming up their vocal cords, practicing their juggling skills, training their pets or doing whatever it takes to become America's next superstar on the reality show's 2018 season on NBC. 

The winner of the show takes home a cool $1 million. 

Doors open at 10 a.m. at the casino, but participants are urged to register beforehand at AGTauditions.com.

The auditions are open to any age and any talent.

While Simon Cowell and the rest of the celebrity judges won't be in Milwaukee, several producers for the show will be there. 

"Rehearse, prepare, be ready," AGT producer Adam Davis said. "Choose that perfect song to sing, choose that perfect routine, if you're a magician, a or a comedian or a ventriloquist -- or heck, if you're a chicken that plays the piano like last year, just be ready." 

If you can't make the auditions in person, the show is accepting online submissions

The producers say they'll stay long enough to see everyone in line, so pack your patience -- and your talent.
