- amber booneOctober 9, 2013The best time you can have in New York for free! Hilarious and also cool to see how the show is put together. Bring a jacket - so cold!
- A L EastSeptember 11, 2013Quite a few people made it in and arrived shortly after 5 pm. We came in earlier and took advantage of the D'agostino's nearby for restrooms and food
- Kenny HeinauSeptember 7, 2012Steven (yes, we're on a first name basis) is an awesome host in person. Don't worry if you get a blue ticket, not a bad seat in the house.
- Clare HoffmanOctober 25, 2012Great experience! Get there earlier for a better seat and get ready to wait for a while! Totally worth it!
- David SchwartzNovember 20, 2013It was awesome. Steven is great with the audience. Also a very quick experience.
- Madelyn KochMay 19, 2014Colbert is incredible, great way to spend an evening in NYC! for those trying to find tickets,

- Clayburn GriffinNovember 8, 2012If you're a guest on the show, or a friend of one and tag along, you get to meet Stephen Colbert (the real one, not the character). Do it!
- Alicia KeysFebruary 7, 2012Stephen Colbert is ridiculous! I can't stop laughing! AND his studio is located in Hell's Kitchen. It's like taking a trip home. ;-)
- Sean HApril 25, 2013A buddy is Colbert's brother-in-law. It is accepted wisdom that Stephen is only the third funniest person in his family. Stephen's drive for success comes from getting his butt kicked by his sisters.
- Nick AvaglianoApril 24, 2014Check-in is at 6, though they recommend you arrive at least 15 min before that. They overbook significantly. Do NOT show up at 5:45! Show up at 4pm! Line was already forming around this time.
- WaleskaSeptember 29, 2011Fun show to see live! Come prepared with questions for Stephen Colbert. He does a Q & A before the show.
- Spencer VairoMarch 7, 2014Best day of my life! Asked Stephen a Lord of the Rings question and got schooled. #notworthy
- Comedy CentralJuly 13, 2011Read up on tonight's guest before Stephen grills them! Don't forget to practice your "STE-PHEN" chant with the rest of the line. Read more
- James FerrandiniJanuary 17, 2012Expect a long wait. Check in right away with your online tickets and you can use your phone to show them your confirmed ticket.
- Richard LiOctober 21, 2013There is no white ticket. Cancelled a while back. Red ticket is vip. Blue is normal peon status. CHUNG WAS WRONG
- Alan CordovaApril 21, 2010Get there early (4:45 or 5), as they assign seats in order of audience members' arrival.
- Alan CordovaApril 21, 2010Bring a question for Colbert (the actor), who will answer several out of character before the taping starts.
- Rachel ClarkSeptember 23, 2010If you stick around after the show for long enough, Stephen will usually take a picture with you or sign something.
- FlawlessJuly 7, 2010If there is 1 TV show to see a live taping of in NY its this 1 and The Daily Show. Colbert is my hero
- Chung NOctober 24, 2010Get a "white ticket" from the security guy after getting inside the lobby to get front row seating!
- National PostOctober 28, 2010The pitfalls of being earnest: Stewart and Colbert gear up for rallies in Washington. More at the link: Read more
- Jeff StevensJune 11, 2010Catch a WristStrong Bracelet! Big Fan of @StephenAtHome! GO Colbert Nation!!!!
