Step into the spotlight at the Museum of Broadcast Communications (MBC), Chicagos ultimate interactive time capsule celebrating the thrill of American radio, TV, and media history.

Snap a selfie in front of Johnny Carson’s legendary Tonight Show curtain, test your monologue skills, and sit behind the actual late-night desks used by Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Fallon. There’s nothing like it in Chicago.

From local icons like Bozo and Svengoolie to the prestigious National Radio Hall of Fame, it is an immersive, nostalgic, and laugh-out-loud journey through the screen that you will not want to miss!

Current exhibits include Johnny Carson: The Centennial Exhibit, The Evolution of Late Night Television, Five Decades of The Loop, I Dream of Jeannie, and many more! Fun for all ages, fully accessible, just steps away from Ogilvie Transportation Center in Chicago’s West Loop at 440 W Randolph Street.
