After reading many reviews, I knew I had to get there early to get to be part of the studio audience. I got there at 10:15 am for the 4 pm taping. The security guard we met was so kind and at 2:45 pm they moved us to a closer holding area on the lot. Again, all the employees we... More

Arrive earlier than your ticket says. We had to stand for about an hr or so then went thru security and waited someone. You stand in line for a while and it was Hot the day we went. Of course the pretty, well dressed people get the better seats but really there isnt a bad seat. I didnt care about... More

We ordered our tickets about a month before we went on our trip and got them about 3 weeks by email. A "ticket" DOES GUARANTEE ENTRY! It allows you the opportunity to stand in line for 2-3 hours to see if you are one of the lucky ones to get inside. It's not as bad as it sounds, you talk... More

This turned out to be the highlight of our visit to LA. The staff is so friendly and courteous. Jay came out and greeted everyone before the show and was so gratious. Very sincere and soooo funny. NBC is crazy for losing Jay. I have seen Ellen, Regis, and Jimmy Fallon and Jay was the best. I overheard another lady... More

After reading other reviews of the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, it was very clear that we had to arrive at the studio much earlier than the ticket stated. We arrived a little before noon, and received the 5th and 6th spot in line, which turned out to be in our favor. (For a more popular guest, i've heard it's... More

We saw the show 5 years ago and were so lucky, excited to have the same experience again. It was 90 degrees and standing in line for over two hours to not get in was SO disappointing. They had water but it was a miserable waiting time. You are not guaranteed a seat for the show with your email ticket.... More

You have to get tickets online ahead of time but they are free. The ticket said be there at 1:45 but reviews we read said be early. We got there about 11:30 and were numbers 24 and 25 in line. You have to wait outside in a holding area until 1:00 and then they take you to another holding area... More

Interesting experience but probably wouldn't do it again. We arrived about an hour before their deadline and waited ..and waited..and waited. There were few places to sit down. Water was available the last hour or so, once you were on the official lot. Restrooms in a trailer, on the same lot, were at a premium (several weren't working by the... More

The Tonight Show is a great experience. We showed up for the 3pm taping at 1215pm and had no issues with crowds. We ended up being number 41 and 42 in line of what ended up being a full house (as per normal on the show I'm sure) of approximately 300. I don't think that there is any type of... More
