Dangdut Academy 8 Shifts Spotlight to Sidrap with ‘Golden Ticket’ Auditions
Indosiar is expanding its search for the next great dangdut sensation, bringing the prestige of the national stage to Sidenreng Rappang. In a strategic move for the latest season, Sidrap has officially been granted “Golden Ticket” status for the Dangdut Academy 8 (DA8) auditions.

As the search for the next big voice intensifies, those with a passion for dangdut are encouraged to note the requirements and full audition schedule for the Sidrap dates. This expansion of the audition circuit underscores the show’s enduring influence in the music industry and its role in launching national careers.
