The City of Kentwood’s Celebrate Kentwood festival, held Saturday, Aug. 11, featured a return of the popular Kentwood’s Got Talent event — and WKTV’s cameras were there.
Kentwood’s Got Talent will air on WKTV 25 on Tuesday, Aug. 21 at 9 p.m. and Saturday, Aug. 25 at 7 p.m.
This year’s festival was a jam-packed day of events at City Hall and the Kent District Library’s Kentwood (Richard. L. Root) Branch featuring family-friendly activities, local food vendors, community booths, a beer garden and live music.
Also returning to the annual festival was a classic car show and Kentwood’s Got Talent. Modeled after the popular TV show, the talent competition will feature singers, dancers and other performers from the community.
Featured talent from around West Michigan took the stage at noon for Kentwood’s Got Talent, and the winner received a $500 cash prize. Contestants had up to five minutes to wow the judges with their talents.
