The community singing contest, now in its fourth year, welcomes vocalists ages 5 and over to compete for the title of Burlingame Idol. Here’s how it works: Beginning Monday, March 26 and for the four following Mondays, auditions are held from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Burlingame Recreation Center. The first hour is reserved for younger participants. After the audition round, the field will be narrowed to three competitors in each of the five age categories.

During the first week of June, the finalists will compete in front of an audience for the title, with a winner in each category. Age categories are 5-10 years old, 11-14 years old, 15-18 years old, 19-39 years old and 40 and older.
