LINE UP, WRISTBAND & TICKET:
When you arrive at the FedExForum the line will form at the front of the building. (Follow the signs and obey law enforcement instructions.) You are allowed one (1) person to accompany you to the audition and since we are issuing SEAT TICKETS, you and that person must be present TO RECEIVE A WRISTBAND AND TICKET. You must have your picture I.D. (picture and birth certificate, or driver's license or passport, something that proves how old you are and who you are) with you at all times. NO EXCEPTIONS. You cannot pick up a wristband or ticket for anyone other than yourself. Minors must bring their Parent or legal Guardian with them at all times. THERE IS NO CHARGE FOR THE AUDITION TICKETS OR WRISTBANDS, WHICH CAN ONLY BE OBTAINED ON THE DATES LISTED AT THE ARENA.
Once you have your wristband and ticket, you and your ONE GUEST can either spend the night in the arena or if you choose, you will need to return to the FedExForum on Monday, September 5, 2005 starting at 5:00AM. (NO ONE UNDER THE AGE OF 13 CAN SPEND THE NIGHT IN THE ARENA OR LINE). As always, you will need to have your two forms of I.D. with you at all times (picture and birth certificate, or driver's license or passport, something that proves how old you are and who you are). You must have your wristband and ticket as well. If you lose your ticket or wristband, you will go to the end of the line (so don't lose them). NO EXCEPTIONS. The auditions will begin sometime around 8:00AM on SEPTEMBER 5. You will need to be in your seat at that time.
Do not arrive any earlier than Sunday, September 4 at 6:00AM. There is no benefit to being first in line. On Sunday, September 4, we will have plenty of time to ISSUE WRISTBANDS AND SEAT TICKETS to those who will attend the auditions.

After extensive consultation between Memphis, TN safety officials, FedExForum venue staff, and AMERICAN IDOL producers, it has been determined that due to the extensive disaster relief efforts currently being coordinated in that city, the AMERICAN IDOL auditions scheduled for Monday, Sept. 5, will need to be cancelled.
The city of Memphis has taken on the responsibility of taking in tens of thousands of refugees from Hurricane Katrina, and out of respect for the city’s citizens, their public services, and the need to focus public safety efforts on the victims, this decision was made.
The producers of AMERICAN IDOL extend their thanks to the city of Memphis, and will hopefully be able to return there next season. Another audition city for this season will be announced shortly.
Auditions will continue next week in Denver, CO (September 11, Invesco Field), followed by Chicago, IL on September 16 (Soldier Field). The next season of AMERICAN IDOL will begin in January 2006.
