Six Flags Entertainment Corporation, the world's largest regional theme park company, and Kidz Bop, the leading children's music brand in the US, have announced a new partnership and the official live audition tour at Six Flags Theme Parks for the Kidz Star USA 2013 Talent Search.

The premier national talent competition for children and teens ages 15 and under is hosted on Kidz Bop's leading safe social networking and video sharing website, KidzBop.com. The Live Audition Tour will extend reach to the live arena for the first time since the competition's launch in 2010.

Beginning this June, aspiring young singers from across the US may submit a 90-second performance video to KidzBop.com to compete for a chance to win a recording contract from RCA Records.

The Live Audition Tour will make stops at 10 domestic Six Flags theme parks over the course of the summer, giving guests the opportunity to record and submit audition videos on site.

"Six Flags is dedicated to showcasing best-in-class music events and supporting artistic partnerships and emerging talent," said David McKillips, senior vice president of corporate alliances for Six Flags. "As the competition continues to grow, our family-friendly theme parks provide the ideal venue for the Kidz Bop brand and live component."
