The tour of NBC network headquarters takes you through the halls and into the studios of NBC's New York operations, and includes a peak into working television studios and a look at the mechanics of producing a TV show.
The tour's first stop is the NBC Sharp History Theatre, where you will learn about NBC's history (which dates back to 1926) and the early days in radio. The globe-shaped theater is home to a 16 foot by 9 foot high-definition screen by Sharp and is equipped with surround sound. Your NBC Page will also tell you about some of the network's early sound effect techniques and NBC's transition into television.
You will the have the opportunity to enter and visit some of NBC's most famous studios, including: The Today Show, NBC Nightly News, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Football Night in America, and Saturday Night Live.
Please Note: It is very important to note studio visibility is limited to only those studios not being used at the time. Typically, one to three studios are available for viewing, however that is not guaranteed. Further, spotting NBC talent is also very rare but not impossible.
