John Stewart Returns to The Daily Show – How to Get FREE Tickets

1 Comment

 

Jon Stewart returns to the Daily Show. How to get tickets_nycgravelguruThe news that Jon Stewart is returning to The Daily Show created renewed interest in tickets to all late night TV shows taped in NYC, especially his.

Stewart left the show in 2015 after 16 years.  He will host on Mondays, and be Executive Producer of the series, so even on the days he is not hosting, his satirical sense will still be the focus of the show.

It’s the biggest shake-up for The Daily Show since Trevor Noah replaced Stewart.

Trevor Noah left the program at the end of 2022 after seven years, to return to stand-up comedy and other projects, and was replaced by a rotating group of funny men and funny women.

Some of them will continue to host, except on Mondays, when Jon Stewart hosts.

  • Tickets to shows taped in NYC are FREE. That includes The Daily Show
  • Anybody who wants to sell you tickets to a late night TV show is scamming you.

Some rules first –

Dress appropriately, since you might be on TV during audience shots.

All shows reserve the right to deny you admission, even with a ticket, if you are dressed inappropriately or appear to be “under the influence”.

ecoXplorer Insider Tip:

  • As a former TV News reporter (for WABC-TV Eyewitness News in NYC), ecoXplorer Evelyn Kanter knows that that TV studios are normally kept cold, between 55 and 65 degrees, to compensate for the hot lights.
  • So this word of advice – bring a sweater or light jacket with you.

Expect airport-like security for some shows, including showing a valid photo ID with proof of age.  Also expect to show proof of Covid vaccination for entry.

Phones, tablets and other recording devices are permitted, but may not used during a taping.  You will be ejected from the audience for using an electronic device for any reason during a taping.  Save your selfies or texting for before or after the taping.

Perhaps most important, there is no guarantee of admission even with a ticket, so do not book airline tickets based on attending a TV show taping.

How to Get Tickets to The Daily Show

The website to request tickets is 1iota.  Available dates are listed a week up to 30 days ahead.  Your best chance for tickets is to request the furthest dates out.

The Daily Show is taped at the studio located at 733 11th Avenue, on the corner of 52nd Street and 11th Avenue

You should arrive at least 45 minutes before the taping time on your e-ticket.

Ticket-holders are admitted first come, first serve until capacity is reached. Since more tickets are issued than there are seats in the studio, those on the end of the line might not get in, despite having an e-ticket.

Bring a valid ID along with your e-ticket for admission.

Your entire party must be present at the time of check-in to be admitted.
