For the first two months, “America’s Got Talent” will air its pre-taped audition rounds before heading into six weeks of live shows airing from the Pasadena Civic Auditorium beginning on Tuesday, August 9. Results shows will air on Wednesdays and the finale will air in September 2022.
Last September, magician Dustin Tavella was crowned the winner of season 16, earning the $1 million grand prize and a slot in the “America’s Got Talent Las Vegas LIVE” stage show at the Luxor Hotel and Casino.
Tavella’s bio is as follows:
Tavella won America’s hearts and votes through magic with his inspirational performances tapping into stories from his personal life including his wedding day and his sons’ adoptions. His final emotionally charged act showcased his art of storytelling with the spirit of philanthropy, using magic to spread his message of the power of giving.
Born and raised in Pottstown, Penn., he grew up going to magic shows with his grandparents in Atlantic City and fell in love with the art of connecting and entertaining people through magic. With a personal motto of always living life with purpose, Tavella has worked with numerous humanitarian organizations aiding the homeless, mentoring in youth programs and helping women in crisis. He is a magician who aims to inspire audiences by using magic to connect with people from all different walks of life. He now resides in Virginia Beach, Va., with his wife, Kari, and their adopted sons, Xander and Sylas.
Judge and executive producer Simon Cowell said in a statement, “I’m so happy for Dustin, this will change his life and his family’s life. Next stop… Vegas!”

His win exemplifies what AGT is all about — positivity, inspiration and connection — and speaks to exactly what our country needs right now.”
“It has been another inspirational season of ‘America’s Got Talent’ and we couldn’t be more pleased to have crowned Dustin Tavella as our season 16 winner tonight,” said Jennifer Mullin, CEO, Fremantle. “His messages of hope, gratitude and helping others resonated throughout the season, and we can’t wait to see how his act continues to flourish when he joins the America’s Got Talent Las Vegas LIVE stage show.”
