Four American Idol finalists will not only perform in Yuma, but will also have the opportunity to play the other Idol side by acting as judges for a local entertainment contest.

On Saturday, September 25, Michael Sarver, David Hernandez, Gina Glockson, and Treneyce Cobbins will be on hand at Alexander Ford to judge "Bring on the Yuma Talent", a local entertainment contest that will offer the lucky winner a paid job at one of the Yuma Visitors Bureau winter events, as well as tickets to the Idol finalists' evening performance. YVB is searching for all types of entertainers, including comedians, dancers, singers, magicians, jugglers, etc... If it's entertaining, Yuma wants to see it! For an application or more information regarding the entertainment competition, please call 928-376-0100.

The evening concert, "American Stars in Concert Celebrate Motown" is sure to be a crowd pleaser. "We are thrilled to have American Idol finalists in Yuma," said Kristan Sheppeard, YVB's Agritourism and Special Events Manager. "We're very excited to have their input in choosing a new, local Yuma Visitors Bureau event performer. Every year we hire the same entertainers, all wonderful, but this year we'd like to see variety. The Idol finalist's evening concert will bring Yuma entertainment to a new level. Be sure to come early, enjoy a bite to eat downtown, check out the new Ford cars, and be prepared for an awesome show!"
