Woosters Triway High School will host the one and only Official Josh Krajcik Viewing Party for Simon Cowells The X Factor USA in the gymnasium of Triway High School on Wednesday, Dec. 21. And whats more, the audience at Triway High School wont merely watch Wednesdays show; theyll actually be a part of it, thanks to The X Factor camera crews sending an on-site live simultaneous feed that will be featured on the show and broadcast around the world.
Krajcik, a Triway High School graduate, is one of three finalists on The X Factors first U.S. season, competing for the largest guaranteed prize in television history, cash payments equaling $5 million dollars and a recording contract with Syco Music in association with Sony Music Entertainment.
During Wednesdays show, Krajcik and the two other finalists will each perform their final two songs after which U.S. viewers will vote via phone, text, Twitter and Facebook to determine which of the three finalists takes home the life-changing prize.
Admission to Wednesdays free viewing party will be first-come, first-served in the 1,400-seat gymnasium, though The X Factor producers are working to seat as many fans as possible for this once-in-a-lifetime event.
Were really excited, said The X Factors associate producer Maggie Miller. We want to make this the very best hometown on the whole show. We want to make every other town watching on Wednesday wish they were Wooster.
Wooster was selected exclusively by The X Factor producers as Josh Krajciks only official live feed, so fans should come prepared to show the world, and Josh, how much they love their hometown superstar.
Doors open at 5 p.m. with fans required to be seated by 7 p.m. sharp. Krajcicians should arrive early donning every bit of Josh Krajcik spirit wear they can muster, from T-shirts to buttons, hats to banners.
The live shows will air on Wednesday, Dec. 21 from 8-9:30 p.m., and Thursday, Dec. 22 from 8-9 p.m. for the final results.
