Tomorrow's Heroes is a casting show that was first broadcast by ORF from September 24, 2010 to January 28, 2011 .

concept

In the show, previously selected candidates have the opportunity to prove their singing talents in public auditions . There is prize money of 100,000 euros for the winner .

Every week two pop stars train the candidates. The audience decides by televoting which of the participants will advance to the next round. In the case of the two candidates with the fewest votes, the jury decided in the first four shows whether they would advance. From the 5th edition on November 19, 2010, only the candidate with the fewest votes will be eliminated.

The format was developed by Mischa Zickler and the program is moderated by Doris Golpashin .

The biggest difference to the previous format Starmania is that the respective trainer selects the song to be presented for the candidate. To this end, the candidates can also present songs that they have written themselves.
