The X Factor 2012 Auditions Dates and Locations Revealed

ITV have revealed the dates and locations of the various venues across the country where auditions will be taking place for the 2012 series of The X Factor.

Applications for the show are now open – with open auditions taking place from next month.

You can make your applications online via the Freemantle media website or can just turn up to any open X Factor audition on the day, providing you satisfy the age limit which is set at 16 this year. Those aged between 16 and 18 will also need the permission of their parents or legal guardians.

Call-backs for the auditions will start in late spring, with those who make it successfully through the pre-audition stages being invited to audition for the judges in front of a live audience in the summer.
