Try out for ABC ‘Shark Tank,’ Open Call in Las Vegas

Do you want to go in front of the sharks on ‘Shark Tank’ and pitch your idea?

Calling all entrepreneurs that have a product they would love to pitch for possible production and funding!

Get those 1 minute pitches ready because open casting is beginning. The show will be holding open auditions in various cities across the country.

The producers of the ABC reality series “Shark Tank” are on a nationwide search to discover the next successful (and possibly wealthy) entrepreneurs, inventors, businesspersons, creators and innovators. In each episode, budding entrepreneurs are given the unprecedented chance to make their businesses grow immediately.

Shark Tank is the ABC show where entrepreneurs compete for a chance to make their business dreams a reality. The show is looking for innovators, inventors, and people with great ideas and even better business skills. “Shark Tank” picks a handful of bright entrepreneurs and allows them to pitch their ideas to the “sharks”, people who have the funding to make it happen. But the sharks are a tough crowd to sell and your idea will have to completely dazzle them to get them to bite. Ready to take a shot and tryout for “Shark Tank?”

Attend an Open Call where you will be given the opportunity to do a 1-minute pitch of your business/product/idea to a member of the Casting Team — just like you would as if you were on the show. Come prepared to wow and dazzle us. Only the first 500 applicants are guaranteed to be seen so arrive early to secure your numbered wristband. Be advised: security may check your bag and you are responsible for your own parking. We do not validate. To apply at an Open Call you must have a completed Application Packet. Download the Application HERE and bring it with you to the Open Call.

It is imperative that you complete your Application prior to the Open Call because there are a lot of detailed questions on there that you may not have the answers to at the Open Call.
