Changes

The live shows of the American Idol Experience, feature three constants competing for a slot in the attraction's final show (which takes place at night). Each contestant is allowed to sing one song, on a stage, which resembles the real American Idol stage. Like the television show, following the contestant’s song, they are given feedback by the judges. At the end of the show, the live studio audience votes on the winner using electronic keypads. The winner of the live show is awarded a slot in the attraction's nighttime finale. Each of the shows is approximately 25 minutes.

The American Idol Experience's final show features the winners of the day's previous shows. Once again the contestants perform their songs in front of both the judges and the live studio audience. Although the judges give feedback, the final desions is made by audience vote. The finale show is also broadcast on a large LED screen, outside of the attraction. The winner of the finale show is given a Dream Ticket, which allows eligible guests to get a front-of-the-line audition for the American Idol Television show, at one of the regional auditions.
