Top 10 Finalists – and Surprises – Await at Muskoka’s Got Talent 2026

Muskoka’s best kept secret? The talent that’s about to take the  stage in Huntsville. 

The Top 10 Finalists for Muskoka’s Got Talent step into the spotlight at the Algonquin  Theatre, 37 Main Street East, Huntsville, to perform live on Saturday, February 28,  2026, at 7:00 PM. Who will wow the crowd, impress the judges, and take home the  grand prize? Tickets are $42 – secure your seats to come find out:  https://www.muskokasgottalent.com/ 

“This isn’t just a talent show – it’s a thrilling night of community spirit and edge-of-your seat suspense that raises funds for a charitable cause,” says Jennifer Jerrett, event  coordinator and Community Engagement Specialist for Community Living Huntsville. 

“The finalists and special guest performers are incredible, there are new ways for the  audience to get involved, like a live People’s Choice vote, there’s a secret judge in the  audience, and bigger cash prizes for the Top 3 Finalists.” 

Muskoka’s Got Talent is a nonprofit event. Proceeds support Community Living  Huntsville and the not-for-profit organization’s affordable housing initiatives that help  people with developmental disabilities and families keep roofs over their heads. 

Jerrett said the 2026 show promises a wide range of genres – acro-dance, bluegrass,  country, pop, musical theatre, folk and more – with performers representing Bala, Bracebridge, Gravenhurst, Honey Harbour, Huntsville, Rosseau, and more, whose  talents include dance, singing-songwriting, solo and duet vocals, guitar, and piano. This  year’s Top 10 Finalists are: 

• Emma McLellan 

• Mel Gutierrez 

• Adessa MacDonald 

• Ashley Montgomery 

• Jonathan O’Conner 

• Hollie Stronks 

• Mackenzie Lockhart 

• Noah Ruttan 

• Derek Pert & David Laidlaw 

• Mikayla Lynch  

“This event celebrates the creative energy and community spirit that helps make our  region shine – and it also helps raise vital funds to ensure that Muskoka is a place  where everyone has the opportunity to belong,” said Jerrett. “By getting tickets, you’re  not only cheering on your family, friends, and neighbours – you are also investing in  affordable housing solutions for community members who are so often shut out from a  safe and dignified place to call home.”
