TICKETS ARE FREE, but must be reserved in advance. We tape Monday through Thursday, from 4pm to 6pm at the CBC Building, 25 John Street, Toronto. Audience check-in time is 3:15pm unless otherwise noted. Click the "Show Dates" drop-down menu below for a list of upcoming guests. Group ticket requests can be sent directly to georgetickets@cbc.ca
NOTE: Ticket slots are listed below for our Toronto International Film Festival marathon of tapings! Book your tickets now as slots fill up fast. We can't reveal the guests before you arrive, but every day during TIFF is exciting - last year George chatted with amazing guests like Spike Lee, Brian de Palma, Javier Bardem, Kristin Scott Thomas, Marisa Tomei, Andrew Lloyd Webber, and Wyclef Jean, among many others!
Age Policy:
Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate anyone under the age of 18.
Security Check:
Everyone attending the show must check in at the ticket desk before gaining access to the studio. Please downsize any purses or bags you are bringing with you, and turn off your phone. Recording devices, digital equipment, or sharp objects of any kind are not permitted inside the studio (think airport style security). You may bring your camera in, but don't use it until the show is finished taping! Please use the restroom before going to the show. If we deem you under the influence, unfit, or a threat, you will not be permitted inside the studio. We reserve the right to deny admission at any time, for any reason.
