The Madison Square Garden Company places the safety and security of our guests above all else. For that reason, we continuously assess and upgrade security measures across all our venues, including the recent introduction of more rigorous bag screenings.
To help ensure that everybody attending our events can enjoy unforgettable and safe experiences, we strongly discourage guests from bringing unnecessary bags, particularly backpacks. As always, all bags will be subject to rigorous screening which can delay entry into all our venues.
Your safety and security are of great importance to us and we look forward to seeing you.
No outside food or beverage is permitted in the venue.
It’s the 20th anniversary of NPR’s Wait Wait….Don’t Tell Me! and to celebrate we’re making our show 20 times bigger! Host Peter Sagal and scorekeeper Bill Kurtis will serve up an all-you-can-eat-buffet of every one of our panelists from Paula Poundstone to Negin Farsad, Roy Blount Jr to Alonzo Bodden, Bobcat Goldthwait to Tomcat Bodett. Top it all off with a few big celebrity guests and you’ll leave saying “enough already!” It’s the show you love with all the news, limericks and bad jokes but now its super-sized. Join us at the Chicago Theater for Wait Wait’s biggest show ever!
