The first U.S.-based season of the hit children’s talent competition is produced and broadcast exclusively by Univision
Kids ages 6-11 are all set to compete starting Monday, February 6 at 8pm ET/PT (7pm Central) on the Univision Network premiere of Pequeños Gigantes USA (Little Giants USA).
Competition will be intense from day 1 as the young contestants sing, dance, act, and showcase their special talents. Their goal: to make their dreams of stardom come true on the first U.S.-based season of the hit children’s talent competition, which is produced and broadcast exclusively by Univision.
Divided into six teams, the kids, who hail from across the U.S., including Puerto Rico, will be coached by celebrity captains urban music singer Karol G, actress and singer Paulina Goto, actress Daniela Luján, and Mexican regional stars Jonatán Sánchez and Rogelio Martínez. The sixth captain’s name is still under wraps until a hotly-anticipated announcement scheduled for Monday, February 13.
TV host Giselle Blondet returns to Univision to lead the show, while Hispanic YouTube trendsetter Sebastián Villalobos will keep fans up to the minute with reports on social media.
The competition will be judged by Latin music star Prince Royce, Mexican regional singer Luis Coronel and Mexican stage and screen legend Bianca Marroquín. All three know what the young performers are going through, since they began their careers at young ages themselves. They will award scores following each performance, and the lowest-scoring teams will be successively eliminated until only the winning team remains. Its members will share the grand prize.
“Pequeños Gigantes USA’ is the perfect show to bring families together around the TV set. These kids have so much talent, we needed at least four nights a week to bring this much entertainment to our viewers,” says Lourdes Díaz, president of Entertainment, Univision Communications Inc.
