THE X Factor team will descend on Colchester on a nationwide tour in search of the next big breakout music stars.

The mobile auditions tour will take place in Culver Square today from 10.30am to 5pm. 

All budding hopefuls need to do is turn up and impress The X Factor team with their vocals.

If successful, entrants will then be in with a chance of auditioning in front of the X Factor judges, when the judges’ auditions take place in the summer.

Auditions will be on a first come, first served basis.

You may be asked to sing acapella but please bring along a backing track on CD, phone, USB or a guitar (there will be no guarantee you’ll be able to use this).

Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult and have valid ID.
