How to Get Free Tickets to Late Night TV Shows

Want to be in the audience of your favorite daytime or late night TV show?

All the shows worth watching are taped here, in New York City.

Here’s how to get FREE tickets to the most popular late night shows, including to rehearsals, and the rules for studio admission.

Scam Alert first –

Tickets to TV show tapings are FREE.  Anybody who tries to sell you a ticket is scamming you.  Don’t fall for it.

All shows have strict policies to prevent the FREE tickets from being sold, and to prevent fights on the line for standby tickets or studio seating.

All shows have dress codes, minimum age requirements and airport-like security to enter the studio.

And all shows have the opportunity to get last minute tickets.
