Are you ready to be discovered?

It’s official! The Talent Search is on! Now through August 15th, 2025, the DIVINA WORLD Foundation Virtual Talent Search is accepting submissions. 

Whether you’re an emerging solo artist or an established band, this is YOUR moment to shine and to uplift communities through music. We heard you. Times are tough and that’s why we’re waiving the $15 entry fee! 

When we were thinking about what this year’s theme should be, we were inspired by musical heritage and honoring our ancestors. We are thrilled that this year’s theme focuses on Central American and World Music Roots. In this year’s Virtual Talent Search, we’re spotlighting culturally-rooted, traditional, or folkloric musical styles from across the globe, with a special emphasis on Central America.
