GeTai Challenge (GTC, Chinese: 歌台星力量; pinyin: Gē Tái Xīng Lìliàng) is a singing talent search competition for renowned getai singers organised by Mediacorp and broadcast on Channel 8 in Singapore. The show began on 22 May 2015 and ended on 17 August 2015. A second season was renewed in 2018 with the show collaborated with Ministry of Communications and Information; the second season premiered on 20 April 2018 and ended on 10 August 2018.

The concept of GeTai Challenge aims to promote the culture of getai in Singapore, and to find aspiring singers coming from the Getai industry; those singers were put together to compete for the GeTai Challenge title where the winner is determined by the judges' score itself. The winners of two currently aired seasons were Desmond Ng and Angie Lau. Winners received a S$20,000 cash prize and a trophy.

The series employs a panel of judges who critique the contestants' performances. Veteran Getai singers Wang Lei and Liu Lingling, and Singaporean composer Jim Lim were appointed as the show's judges. Other guest judges featured in the show include actors Chen Hanwei, Irene Ang, Tosh Zhang, Cavin Soh, Royston Tan, and musicians Allen Moo, Eric Moo and Daniel Luo. Mediacorp host Pornsak and former winner Desmond Ng were the current emcees of the show, with Wang Weiliang and Shane Pow previously taking hosting roles. Dennis Chew and Ho Ai Ling took supporting hosts during season 2, for segments promoting the community.
