Update: The full night-by-night schedule for Jimmy Kimmel’s Brooklyn week has now been added below.
Jimmy Kimmel wasn’t kidding when he promised an “all-star, big-time lineup of guests” for his week of shows in Brooklyn.
Kimmel revealed the guest list for Jimmy Kimmel Live!’s September 28–October 2 run at the Brooklyn Academy of Music Thursday night, and it includes Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, Howard Stern, Billy Crystal, John Oliver, Seth Meyers, Pete Davidson, Bernie Sanders, Zohran Mamdani, Robby Hoffman, Tom Morello, and Mahershala Ali.
TV on the Radio, Goose, and De La Soul are also on the bill.
And Kimmel suggested there’s more to come, teasing “surprise visitors too, as if the regular ones weren’t good enough.”
One name was already out of the bag. Stern revealed earlier this month that he’ll sit down with Kimmel on Tuesday, September 29, marking his first visit to a late-night talk show in nearly seven years. His last was also with Kimmel, on the October 9, 2019 edition of Jimmy Kimmel Live! in Los Angeles.
The rest of the lineup had remained under wraps, and there are plenty of intriguing combinations in the mix. Oliver and Meyers give Kimmel another pair of late-night hosts to play with after last year’s Brooklyn run produced several crossovers. Stephen Colbert and Daily Show correspondent Josh Johnson were scheduled guests in 2025, while Meyers and Jon Stewart made surprise appearances. Matt Damon also turned up on the final night to renew his long-running “feud” with Kimmel.
McCartney and Springsteen, meanwhile, give the week some considerable rock-star wattage. Springsteen is set to perform with Tom Morello on Tuesday, while McCartney will sit for an interview on Friday.
This year’s trip will mark Jimmy Kimmel Live!’s eighth week of shows from Brooklyn. Kimmel and company previously set up shop at BAM in 2012, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2022, and 2025, producing 35 episodes there before this year’s run.
Kimmel will tape five fresh episodes from BAM’s Howard Gilman Opera House, Monday through Friday.

In other words, it’s a week-long TDS support group meeting. Though it must be said, like every other week since 2016 for kimmel show.
All are “Demorats.”
Grow the fuck up, bitch!
All Men too….yikes
They live in a vacuum. Vortex Jimmy really believes that MOST of America is on his side. It are NOT.

Between Kimmel and Drumpf, it will ALWAYS be Kimmel, four times out of five! People have had it with Drumpf running the country into the dirt, and even the MAGAts are starting to turn on him!
Enjoy drowning in a blue wave this November, bitch!🖕😈🖕
“Men?” Hardly.
Uuuuuh… Robby Hoffman is a woman
It shows how terrible your research skills are~
Thankfully it’s not a meeting of Republicans. Grindr can’t handle that much traffic in one place.
Notice how you as a Jew get to make homophobic comments without being hounded but I can’t.
Notice how you get to oscillate between being a Democrat and a Republican at will because you as a Jew are above it all since your goal is steer both parties back toward the Zionist consensus.
You MAGAts love to look down on LGBTQ+ people, but far too many of you have these same sex desires that you look for discreet one on one encounters, hoping no one will discover you!
And nobody likes an anti Semitic fuck hole, like you, bitch hole! The world dealt with you evil filth, post WWII, with the Nuremberg trials that resulted in Nazis getting hung by the neck until they’re in Hell!
And that’s gonna be YOUR fucking fate, you small bus riding mouth breather!
I have no problem with the queers, Tommy. You’re also free to use homophobic slurs. This is LateNighter, after all. I’m fine with all slurs except the antisemitic ones!
That’s not the point, rabbi/banker. It’s that I as a person of European Christian extraction will be run up the flagpole by others of my background who still believe in this liberal democracy nonsense, but won’t touch you even if you say word for word exactly what I say.
Do you understand that? They see you as simultaneously an oppressed minority but also a kingmaker, while denying your tribe has omnipotent power that very much fear, which is why they are so selective and calculating with the virtue-signaling.
Why no women guests, are they all out of town??
Radical Feminism is a bore.
If that’s what you believe!🙄🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Robby Hoffman is on the lineup; is it because her stage name sounds more masculine to you??
