These pages together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use set out all the terms and conditions upon which Warner Bros. Studio Operations, a division of WB Studio Enterprises Inc. (“we”, “us” or “our”) provides the Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood to you and your guests (“you” or “your”) (the “Terms”).  Please read these Terms carefully before buying a ticket to the Studio Tour (“Ticket(s)”).  By buying a Ticket and/or gift certificate, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

These Terms apply to the sale of Tickets and/or gift certificates only and do not apply to the sale of products.

The Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood is a behind-the-scenes tour which immerses guests into our legendary Warner Bros. Studio where you can explore our iconic backlots, the Archive, the Picture Car Vault as well as soundstages where today’s hottest TV shows and movies are made (the “Studio Tour”).

How to Purchase Tickets

Tickets can be purchased via our website www.wbstudiotour.com or by telephone at (877) 492-8687.  All persons wishing to visit the Studio Tour must purchase Tickets in advance and pre-book the time and date of their entrance into the Studio Tour with the option for day of purchases as available.  All telephone calls made to (877) 492-8627 will be charged at local rates.  Calls from mobile operators and other networks may vary.

Payment must be made in full at the time of buying a Ticket by credit card.  We do not accept checks, cash or debit cards.

Upon purchase of a Ticket from our website, you will receive a confirmation email with a PDF e-ticket.  Such email constitutes your proof of purchase.  Please check that you have received this email following purchase. We take no responsibility should you not receive this email due to reasons outside of our control e.g. junk or spam filtering.  The confirmation email or Ticket as applicable must be presented at the main entrance of the Studio Tour for entry.

It is your responsibility to check the accuracy of the details on your email confirmation or Tickets (as appropriate) as mistakes cannot always be rectified.  When you receive your email confirmation or Tickets, please keep them in a safe place as we cannot be held responsible for any Tickets that are lost or stolen.

Only Tickets purchased directly from us or one of our authorized distributors are valid for admission. Tickets purchased from unauthorized third parties, including online auction sites, are not valid for entry.

Allocated Entry Time

You will be given the opportunity to select a date and time for arrival at the Studio Tour (an “Allocated Entry Time”) (subject to availability) during the online or telephone booking procedure and this will be shown on your confirmation email or Ticket (as appropriate).  For those wishing to redeem a valid gift certificate, please call (877) 492-8687 to arrange your Allocated Entry Time.  It is your responsibility to arrive in time for your Allocated Entry Time.

You are asked to arrive at the Studio Tour no later than 15 minutes before your Allocated Entry Time although you will not be allowed access into the Studio Tour before your Allocated Entry Time.

Visitors who miss their Allocated Entry Time are not guaranteed entry to the Studio Tour.  Studio Tour staff will advise visitors who have missed their Allocated Entry Time of the next available time slot but at busy times it may not be possible to find a time on the same day in which case it will be necessary to re-book an Allocated Entry Time.

Once an Allocated Entry Time has been issued, it will be necessary to call (877) 492-8687 for you to change the day and/or time of entry into the Studio Tour.

We reserve the right to amend an Allocated Entry Time once it has been issued to you but we will endeavor to notify you as soon as we become aware that this is necessary.  Should we have to significantly amend your Allocated Entry Time (i.e. by four (4) hours or more), you may choose to accept the new Allocated Entry Time, arrange another mutually agreeable Allocated Entry Time with us via our telephone booking line or cancel the Ticket whereupon we will refund you all the monies you have paid to us for the Ticket(s) but no further compensation will be paid.

Ticket Price

Each person entering the Studio Tour must be 5 years of age or older and must present a valid Ticket at the specified Allocated Entry Time in order to enter the Studio Tour.

Group tickets for parties of (i) fifteen or more for the regular studio tour; or (ii) thirteen or more for the deluxe tour, may be available at discounted rates. Please contact our telephone booking line (818) 977-1943 for more information.

The price of Tickets may vary from time to time.  Our prices are as stated on our website but are liable to change at any time.  When buying a Ticket either via the website or by telephone, the total price will be confirmed.  We reserve the right to correct any pricing errors even after we have sent you the email confirmation or Tickets (as appropriate) although we will endeavor to do so as soon as we become aware of the error.

Ticket prices are in USD.

Tickets – General Terms

One Ticket purchased entitles one person entry to the Studio Tour on a single occasion. Once you have exited the Studio Tour, you will need to purchase a new Ticket to re-enter the Studio Tour.

All persons entering the Studio Tour must hold a valid Ticket that must be retained at all times and must be available for inspection if required by any member of staff. Failure to produce a valid Ticket on request may result in your removal from the Studio Tour.

Tickets remain our property at all times.  We reserve the right to require the immediate return of the Tickets at any time and to refuse entry to, or eject from the Studio Tour, any person who fails to comply with these Terms.

Once acquired, whether by purchase or on a complimentary basis, Tickets are non-refundable, non-transferable and void if altered. Tickets that we reasonably suspect have been transferred or altered will not be honored. Tickets are not for resale. Any such resale shall have the effect of rendering that Ticket void.

Tickets will include entry to most, but not necessarily all, areas of the Studio Tour, as we may have to close areas for production needs or to allow for maintenance and updating.

From time to time, we may decide at our absolute discretion to issue tickets under special promotions (“Promotional Tickets”) but Promotional Tickets will be available subject to availability and subject to any terms and conditions affecting the particular promotion.

Gift Certificates

Gift certificates are available for purchase via telephone or in person.

A gift certificate entitles one person to visit the Studio Tour. Before visiting the Studio Tour, the gift certificate holder must phone the booking line (877) 492-8687, to book his or her Allocated Entry Time. Timeslots are subject to availability. All individuals under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

Please be aware that only one gift certificate recipient can be entered per transaction. If you are intending to send gift certificates to different addresses please book each one as a separate transaction.

For gift certificates bought by telephone, you have the option to choose to have gift certificates sent to you via postal carrier or e-mail.  We take no responsibility should you not receive gift certificates due to the failing of the Post Office or other third-party delivery service.

Please protect the gift certificate and treat it as cash. We cannot be held liable for gift certificates which, are subsequently lost, stolen or damaged.

Ticket Cancellation

Should you wish to cancel a Ticket, you must notify us immediately by telephone on (877) 492-8687 upon which the email confirmation or Tickets shall become void.  We are under no obligation to issue refunds where a Ticket has been canceled by you but, notwithstanding this, any such refund shall be entirely at our discretion.

In rare circumstances beyond our control, we reserve the right to cancel a Ticket but we will endeavor to notify you as soon as we become aware that this is necessary.  Should we have to cancel your Ticket we will refund you all the monies you have paid to us.
