Britain’s Got Talent fans saw the ITV show’s second live semi-final of the 2026 series tonight (May 2) with more acts confirming their spots in the final.

After many weeks of auditions, a select number of acts have made it through to the next stage.

In this stage of the competition, acts have to perform live in front of a crowd at the London Apollo to see if they can secure enough public votes to make it through to the final, or receive the singular golden buzzer allowed in an episode to go straight through.

Acts in the second semi-final included Japanese hip-hop dancers World Wings, magician Fabian Fox, pupils from Braunstone Community Primary School and dance group LMA.

Additionally, singer Katherine O’Malley, freestyle rappers Macshane & Delby, singer Nic Vani and Alfredo & Coral took part.

Who made it through the second BGT semi-final?

LMA were given the golden buzzer by Alesha Dixon and one spot in the final remained after they secured theirs.

Fabian Fox was also sent through to the final after a public vote.

He was the act that received the most votes from the public and, therefore, is one step closer to winning Britain’s Got Talent 2026.

Remember the BGT winners from 2018 to 2025Who is in the Britain’s Got Talent final so far?

LMA and Fabian Fox join dog performer Anastasiia and her pet Salsa and singer Matty Juniosa in the final.
