Got Talent: All-Stars
Got Talent: Fantasy League

Got Talent España (Spanish for 'Spain's Got Talent') is a televised Spanish talent show competition, which premiered on 13 February 2016, part of the global Got Talent franchise created by Simon Cowell.[1] The show was originally presented by Presented by Santi Millán and is produced by Syco Entertainment, distributed by Fremantle. The show is broadcast on Telecinco every year starting in 2016, excluding 2020 and 2025. in late Spring to early Summer.

The show is a continuation of the original series, Tienes Talento, which aired one season in 2008.[2]

The success of the show has led to a spin-off following the Got Talent España season 8, titled Got Talent: All-Stars, broadcasting in 2023 following the success of the American edition's spin-off America's Got Talent: All-Stars. On 10 June 2026, Mediaset España announced the show would pick up another spin-off, Got Talent: Fantasy League, which is based on the American edition, America's Got Talent: Fantasy League.[3][4][5]

Format

Auditions

Each season, contestants of any age may audition with any talent they wish to present. During auditions, performers attempt to impress a panel of judges – currently consisting of Paula Echevarría, Carlos Latre, Lorena Castell, and Xuso Jones – in order to progress to the live rounds of the competition.

Judges are equipped with red buzzers, which they may press to signal disapproval of an act. If all judges press their buzzers, the performance is automatically stopped. Following each audition, the judges discuss the performance and vote either "yes" or "no". Contestants typically require a majority of "yes" votes (three or more) to advance to the next round, although in season 7 only two "yes" votes were required.

Deliberations

Deliberations are an untelevised stage in which the judges review the acts that received sufficient "yes" votes during auditions and select a reduced number of contestants to advance to the semi-final stage.

Semi-finals and Final

Contestants perform in live shows, aiming to secure votes from both the judges and the public in order to reach the final and compete for a cash prize of €25,000. As of 2026, the programme has produced 11 winners, featuring a wide range of acts including singers, instrumentalists, dancers, magicians, comedians, and variety performers.

In season 2, a Golden Buzzer was introduced for the semi-final stage, allowing the judges to collectively select standout acts during live shows. From 2024 onwards, each judge was assigned an individual Golden Buzzer for use during the semi-finals.

Golden Buzzer

The "Golden Buzzer" in the auditions is allowed to be used by the judges and presenter which sends an act directly through to the semi-finals, in season one each of them could only press it once. In season 2, judges could give one golden buzzer, and one as a pair with another judge. In season 3, the judges were allowed to give a golden buzzer collectively as a group. In season 4, the judges and the presenter were allowed to give a collective golden buzzer. In season 7, the presenter was allowed to give a golden buzzer as a pair with another judge. In season 9, judges and presenters could no longer give golden buzzers as a pair. In season 10, the group golden buzzer with the judges and the presenter was replaced with the "Platinum Buzzer" sending an act straight to the finale.

The "Golden Buzzer" was introduced in the semi-finals in season 2. The judges decide as a group whether to press it or not, with that act going straight to the finale, if pressed. In season 10, one judge was assigned the golden buzzer each semi-final.

Tienes Talento

The original series was hosted by Nuria Roca (also the host of Factor X), with Eduardo Aldán as backstage host. Actress Natalia Millán, music conductor Josep Vicent, and singer-songwriter David Summers were the three original judges. Summers appeared only in the first episode and left the show prematurely due to pneumonia; he was replaced by singer and musician Miqui Puig (also a judge on Factor X) for the rest of the season.[6] On 21 April 2008, 16-year-old flamenco singer Salva Rodríguez won the finale with 23 percent of the televote.[7]

Judges and presenters

Since the programme’s debut in 2016, Got Talent España has featured a judging panel composed primarily of television personalities, comedians, and entertainers, with Santi Millán serving as presenter throughout all editions.[8]

The original judging panel consisted of Jesús Vázquez, Jorge Javier Vázquez, Eva Hache, and Edurne.[9] In the second season, Risto Mejide replaced Vázquez.[10] From the fourth season in 2019, Hache and Javier Vázquez left the show being replaced by Eva Isanta and Paz Padilla.[11][12] Dani Martínez joined in the fifth season, replacing Isanta.[13]

In season 7, Padilla left the show, it continued with only three judges.[14] The following season returned to four judges, with Paula Echevarría joining the panel.[15] Florentino Fernández replaced Martínez in the ninth season.[16] In 2024, Edurne departed the programme and was replaced by Tamara Falcó for the tenth season, alongside returning judges Mejide and Echevarría.[17]

In 2025 it was announced, Carlos Latre and Lorena Castell both joined the show replacing Fernández and Falcó respectively.[18] In late 2024, Mejide announced that the eleventh season would be his last.[19][20] Latre, Castell and Echevarría returning alongside new judge, Xuso Jones.
