Game Show Tickets

How to Be a Member of the Studio Audience

Game show tickets are like little rays of sunshine. They make you feel warm all over, they're generally free, and they're easy to get, provided you're willing to travel. And that's not all...

For many shows, audience members receive a truly fine parting gift – a chance to audition for those elusive contestant slots.

This is especially ideal for fans who missed their official audition opportunity. For instance, Millionaire holds regular auditions in the Summer. Yet taping begins in the Fall. So, if Summer's long gone, but you still want to snag a slot in the hot seat, the best way is to get one is by attending a taping in New York City.

But watch for age restrictions. For some game shows, audience members must be 18 years old. For others, it's 14. In any event, you'll probably have to leave your preschooler at home.
