Jimmy Kimmel is set to return to Brooklyn for five episodes of his late-night show, marking the fifth time he has brought his comedy to the Brooklyn Academy of Music. The shows will air from Monday, September 28, through Friday, October 2, at the Howard Gilman Opera House. According to reports, Kimmel and company have previously set up shop at BAM in 2012, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2022, and 2025, producing 35 episodes total. Last year’s Brooklyn visit proved especially fertile ground for late-night crossovers, with appearances by Seth Meyers, Jon Stewart, and Matt Damon.
Guests for Kimmel’s Brooklyn shows will be revealed at a later date, and fans can secure tickets to the run at kimmelinbrooklyn.com. Free ticket requests for the September 28–October 2 shows are available at KimmelInBrooklyn.com. The trip will mark JKL’s eighth week of shows from Brooklyn, and Kimmel announced the plans during a Wednesday night broadcast. The shows are part of a larger trend in late-night television, with other shows also making special appearances in New York City.
In February, Stephen Colbert announced that, after scheduling the Texas democrat as a guest on Late Night, CBS lawyers told him “we could not have him on the broadcast.” The Late Night host went on to explain FCC Chair Brendan Carr’s new guidance on the “equal time” rule, which requires broadcasters who feature qualified political candidates on their airwaves provide time to rivals, if requested. Kimmel’s shows in Brooklyn have often featured surprise guests, including Seth Meyers and Jon Stewart, who made surprise appearances during previous visits.
The shows will also feature performances by a roster of stars, including Alicia Keys, Victoria Monét, YEONJUN, and YOSHIKI, who will take the stage at the event, which returns to New York City’s Central Park on September 10. The festival is built around Global Citizen’s efforts to address issues connected to extreme poverty, with campaigns focused on education, supporting smallholder farmers, and expanding access to electricity.
