America, get ready to vote! NBC's top-rated summer series AMERICA'S GOT TALENT has selected the Top 36 acts, which will include three Wild Cards, to vie for the coveted $1 million grand prize beginning Tuesday, Jul. 26 (8-10 p.m. ET/PT).

This July 26 telecast marks the beginning of "AGT's" season 11 live performance shows at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.

On Tuesday, the first 12 acts of the Top 36 will take the stage to perform for America's vote. Viewers can choose their favorite act by phone, Facebook, on NBC.com, via Google (search "AGT") and via the AGT app (available on the App Store and Google Play). Fans will also have the chance to save an act in jeopardy each week during Wednesday results shows via Google's Instant Save.

The results show on July 27 (8-9 p.m.) will feature a performance from season 10 winner Paul Zerdin.

Fresh from his season 10 victory, Zerdin and his band of sharp-tongued characters bring their comedy and hilarious antics to the Las VEGAS STRIP in an all-new, headlining production at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino. With Zerdin's winning combination of technical skill, hilarious ventriloquism, charm and impeccable comic timing, he brings to life several very different characters that, over the last year, have become household names in the United States.

The Top 36 acts of season 11 include:
