The winner of the fourth live semi-final of the 2026 series of Britain's Got Talent has been revealed.

After eight more acts took to the stage for tonight's show (May 16), two more acts made it through to the final.

While one got the golden buzzer, the other won on the night thanks to the public vote.

Rafferty Coope wins the fourth BGT semi-final for 2026

The fourth semi-final saw the following acts take part:

  • Wei Yamin - music/pyrotechnics act
  • Welsch Master Team - gymnastics team
  • Ren DMC - singer
  • Glantaf Boys Choir - a choir group from Wales
  • Sonny Green - poet
  • Rafferty Coope - magician and KSI's golden buzzer during the audition stages
  • Epic Sax Guy - musician
  • Kristel Herrera - singer

Poet Sonny Green was given the golden buzzer after his emotional performance left the judges and audience feeling emotional.

His poem was about his relationship with his sons and left KSI in tears.

KSI's golden buzzer, Rafferty Coope, won the semi-final this evening and secured his spot in the final later this month after getting the most votes from the public.

The young magician once again combined music and magic to impress viewers tonight.

He said: "I've dreamed about this moment all my life, I can't believe I'm here.

"Thank you to everyone at BGT."

It was musician Ren DMC who finished as the runner-up after 'roasting' the judges with his rap, with Glantaf Boys Choir in third.
