  1. Go to Oscars and register to sit in the bleachers lining the red carpet. Only 700 people will be chosen from the public, but the tickets are free. They draw these registrations like the lottery. These bleachers, however, aren't actually in the Awards Show themselves so this is your best chance of attending the event. [1]
  2. Seat fillers wait by to fill any seats that are empty in the event that somebody leaves during the awards show, so when the camera looks into the audience it isn't full of holes. [2]

    Can you live in another country?
    Community Answer
    Yes. You'll just have to travel to where the show is to go see it, but you'll have to pay for the travel fees like plane tickets and such.
