When will they go on sale? Bought them last year, but don't remember when they went on sale.

A limited amount of tickets go on sale to the general public on Ticketmaster.

Was either Telecharge or Ticketmaster from what I remember... They only took VISA for payment. They also didn't last very long.

Thanks to connections, I have my order in. Sitting in the balcony. Not sure that what my seats are going for are the amount being charged to the general public but they are above $150.00. I was told the price went up this year.

Just out of curiosity, is black tie required or is a suit and tie appropriate (and typical) attire?

It's formal - tux required....

I feel like tickets went on sale via ticketmaster last year in early May. I ended up having to get mine on Ebay, though, because even though I started trying as soon as it hit 9am, they were gone!

And yes, it's black tie.

Thanks Kate. I have a feeling I may end up getting them on Ebay too....

Ken....I am not wearing a tux. I don't think it is required.

Didn't they go on sale soon after the nominations were announced last year?

I think so. To the general public.

Tickets go on sale through Ticketmaster the morning the nominations are announced and not one minute before.

Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

I saw Spelling Bee the night before the Tony's last year, so that would have put the awards show on June 5th. Not too much later then...

Wish I could hang out at the red carpet again this year, but I'll be working at WDW.

Have been there twice. Had to wear a tux (everyone else also did). It was fun, especially seeing what went on during the many commercials....

I was told a tux isn't required. I was going to just do a suit and tie. But I am going to a funtion at Tavern on the Green the next evening so I will have a tux. Maybe I will just wear it to the awards.

I went a few years ago (the year THE PRODUCERS and PROOF won everything) and was unimpressed. I don't like going to awards shows personally (I've also been to the Oscars twice; big bores both times). I'd much rather be at home in my sweats with a bowl of popcorn than wearing a stuffy suit in the fourth ring of some theatre. Plus, at home I can mute the acceptance speeches.
