Australia's Got Talent is an Australian reality television talent show. The show is based on the Got Talent series format that originated in the United Kingdom with Simon Cowell.

The first six seasons aired on the Seven Network, from 2007 to 2012. In the first season the judges were Tom Burlinson, Red Symons and Dannii Minogue. The first season aired at 6:30pm on Sunday nights. After a successful run, the series was given a vote of confidence as Seven moved the show to a more competitive Tuesday night timeslot. The second season aired from 29 April 2008.^[3] Burlinson and Symons did not return for season four and were replaced by Kyle Sandilands and Brian McFadden.

For season seven in 2013 the show moved to the Nine Network. Dawn French, Geri Halliwell and Timomatic who is the additional fourth judge joined the panel as replacements for McFadden and Minogue. On 4 April 2014, it was announced that Nine had axed Australia's Got Talent due to low ratings.^[4] On 8 July 2015, Nine announced that the show would be returning in 2016 for an eighth season.^[5][6] The Nine Network aired season eight in 2016, with four new judges: Kelly Osbourne, Ian "Dicko" Dickson, Sophie Monk and Eddie Perfect.

In December 2018, Seven announced the series would be returning to their network in 2019 for a ninth season.^[7] The ninth season, with Ricki-Lee Coulter as host, returned on 28 July 2019.^[8]

In June 2021, Seven announced a new season and judging panel; however due to COVID-19 restrictions in Sydney, the production of the season was postponed to 2022, with Shane Jacobson returning, alongside Kate Ritchie, and Britain’s Got Talent judges David Walliams and Alesha Dixon. The tenth season premiered on 9 October 2022.^[9]
