The Morning Pointe Foundation’s Franklin, Tennessee, edition of Seniors Got Talent has been growing year over year and is returning for the 7th time for 2025!
Seniors Got Talent Franklin 2025
The show, which the Foundation puts on in conjunction with Morning Pointe Senior Living, will take place on Tuesday, Oct. 14 at 7 p.m. Once again, 10 to 12 senior acts will compete for the $1,000 grand prize. The show is at The Franklin Theatre at 419 Main St.
The contest is open to all seniors age 60 or older (not just Morning Pointe residents) with a performing talent. Past acts have included singers, musicians, dancers, comedians, illusionists and more.
Prizes, as last year, not only include the first-place $1,000, but also $500 for second place and $250 for third place. Winners will be determined by a panel of judges, although the audience will have a chance to vote as well, determining a People’s Choice winner.
Auditions will be opening soon, so talented seniors in the area are encouraged to start honing their talents to try out!
Seniors Got Talent does more than just spotlighting the enduring talent of seniors. It is also a fundraiser for the Morning Pointe Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit that provides local scholarships, forms community partnerships, and supports caregivers in its mission to advance the care of seniors. Monies raised through sponsorships, ticket sales and People’s Choice votes go to help fund nursing and other scholarships at partner schools. In the greater Nashville area, these schools include the Tennessee College of Applied Technology (TCAT) at Williamson County, Motlow State Community College and Columbia State Community College.
“We have sold out at our show for the last two years, and it seems like each year, the talent just gets better and better,” said Miranda Perez, Morning Pointe Foundation executive director. “We can’t wait to see what talented seniors will try out this year. And besides celebrating our performers, we are celebrating that dozens of deserving students have benefitted directly from the funds raised at Seniors Got Talent Franklin.”
