Reading time: 3 minutes
After another electric performance on America’s Got Talent (AGT), the Birmingham Youth & Young Adult Fellowship Choir has moved on to the semifinals.
The choir will compete against 11 other acts on Sept. 16 for their chance to win Season 20 of AGT.
While their killer talent and charm will help them earn their spot in the finals, the Birmingham Youth Fellowship Choir needs the community’s help to make it all the way.
Here’s everything you need to know to support Birmingham’s talented young people ahead of their next performance.
Where do I watch the America’s Got Talent Semifinals?
The semifinals of AGT will air Tuesday, Sept. 16 at 7 PM on NBC, which is broadcast on Birmingham’s WVTM-TV on channel 13. The results air the next day, Wednesday, Sept. 17, at the same time.
If you don’t mind not watching live, Peacock is NBC’s streaming service. Episodes go to Peacock a day after they air on NBC.
You can also watch it with a live TV streaming service, such as Youtube TV, Hulu Live TV or Sling TV.
How do I vote for the Birmingham Youth & Young Adult Fellowship Choir on AGT?
After the semifinals episode, AGT viewers will vote on which of the 12 acts they think should advance to the finals. Here’s where we come in, Birmingham.
There are a few ways to cast your votes:
- Visit NBC’s website.
- Download the AGT app or the NBC app.
Once you’ve registered, you’ll get 10 votes. Voting opens at 7 PM on Tuesday when the show starts and ends at 6 AM on Wednesday morning.
How do I donate to the Birmingham Youth & Young Adult Fellowship Choir?
The Birmingham Youth Fellowship Choir is determined to make it all the way — which means a long hotel room stay, plenty of food and other travel necessities.
Even though they’re all the way in California, the Magic City can still show its support. The choir has asked the community to pitch in what they can to help them stay on AGT as long as possible.

What happens after the America’s Got Talent Semifinals?
“At the Semifinal, the 12 Acts that won their respective votes compete again. Here is where the Semifinal Golden Buzzer comes into play, which doesn’t allow an Act to skip any rounds of competition, but does spare the Act from America’s Vote, sending them straight to the Finals. America’s top six Acts, the Semifinal Golden Buzzer winner, and the four Quarterfinal Golden Buzzer winners form the Top 11 Finalists.”
One thing’s for sure: We will be cheering on the Birmingham Youth Fellowship Choir on Sept. 16 and beyond. Help them achieve their goal of representing our city by tuning in, casting your votes and giving what you can.
