The Voice Season 31 Playoffs: Free Audience Tickets

The Voice is back for its 31st season, and 1iota is handing out free seats to watch the Playoffs round get made. The taping is in Universal City on a Thursday morning, which makes it one of the easier free things to do in Los Angeles if you want to see how network television is actually put together.

What this taping is

The Playoffs are a pivotal stretch of the season, the point where the field of singers gets narrowed down in front of the coaches and a live studio crowd. The listing promises some iconic moments you will not want to miss. As with any TV taping, the audience is part of the production: you clap, cheer and react on cue, and the crew keeps things moving between takes.

How to get tickets

Requests go through the official 1iota page linked below. Nothing is charged, but a request is not a confirmed seat. Audience services routinely issue more tickets than there are chairs, so a ticket gets you priority in line, not a guaranteed spot. Plan to arrive early, and expect the doors to close once the studio fills.

Practical info

Tapings run long, often several hours once you count the line, security and the breaks between segments. Eat beforehand, dress in layers because studios run cold, and travel light, since bags and phones are commonly restricted. Bring a valid photo ID that proves you are 18 or older. Specific dress and arrival instructions arrive with your ticket confirmation, so follow those over any general advice here.

Parking and traffic around Universal City can be heavy on weekday mornings. The Metro B Line (Red) stops at Universal City/Studio City, which is worth considering if you want to skip the drive. Nothing here guarantees a particular shuttle or entrance, so confirm the check-in location once 1iota sends it.

Make a day of it

A morning taping leaves the afternoon open. If you are scanning for LA events this weekend or the week ahead, this one is a weekday option that pairs well with a walk around Studio City or Universal CityWalk afterward. Browse more free tapings on the live audience page.
