It’s a thrilling night of laughter, lively games, and lighthearted connections with a handful of ladies, hand-picked from the audience to experience first-hand what life at the mansion is really like."
The description also says, "From glamorous limo entrances to outrageous group dates and all the memories that come along with it, come dressed to the nines and bring your watch party crew to cheer on those vying for the final rose of the evening. The Bachelor: Live on Stage Official Tour guarantees a wild night of fun, shocking surprises, and a front-row seat to the journey you’ve been watching on TV for years.

The show is hosted by former Bachelorette Becca Kufrin.
Former Season 14 Bachelorette lead Becca Kufrin will be returning as the host of The Bachelor: Live on Stage.
