NBC’s America’s Got Talent airs its sixth audition episode on Tuesday, July 8, 2025, with another two-hour lineup that includes emotional reveals, first-time solo acts and one buzzer moment already being teased by Simon Cowell as a season standout.
The episode features a former danger act sidekick performing without her longtime partner. It’s her first solo attempt in front of the judges. Another audition centers on a grandmother brought to the stage by her granddaughter, who surprises her with the application and a shot to perform original music.
Cowell is set to use his Golden Buzzer in the episode, with production billing the performance as one of his personal favorites this year. NBC is holding back specifics, but the network has promoted the moment in advance of air.
Season 20 is airing weekly on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET, with audition episodes running at a two-hour length. This week’s installment follows a ratings upswing earlier in the month that saw America’s Got Talent draw solid numbers in total viewers, reinforcing its position as NBC’s most durable summer series.
