America's Got Talent Season 21 wraps up this week with a two-night finale - performances Tuesday, September 22, and the winner reveal Wednesday, September 23, both on NBC at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. Central.
Note the schedule shift: AGT normally airs at 8 p.m. ET, but NBC bumped it an hour later this week to make room for The Voice's Season 30 premiere in the 8 p.m. slot both nights.
Ten acts are competing for the $1 million grand prize. Four locked in their spots with judges' Golden Buzzers during the quarterfinals: singer Lai Noelle, magic group Hundred Fingers, rocker Nene Royal, and robot dance troupe Unitree. They're joined by six acts America voted through from the semifinals: dog performer Olivia Befus, aerialist Veronika Goroshkova, the Acro Canine Dance Crew, dance group Come Here, laser act Royal Lasers, and magician Geno Ploeger.
Nene Royal, a 16-year-old singer-guitarist from Phuket, Thailand, has become one of the season's breakout stories - she went from busking in local markets to a Live Golden Buzzer and a finals spot, telling reporters this week she's "100% ready" for the moment.
Whoever wins Wednesday night takes home $1 million and a headlining spot in an AGT Superstars Live show. Ten very different acts, one stage, one night left to decide it - a reminder that talent shows up in more forms than any one category can hold.
