Sabrina Carpenter fans, this Airbnb Original is one you have to act on now, because the doors close on October 20. If you’re interested in hanging with Sabrina and up to 20 of your friends on her vintage TV show set in her Los Angeles penthouse, you’ve got to tell Airbnb you’re up for it by Monday. This free experience will be highly competitive, because it’s a one-time occurrence, happening on November 18. Luckily, multiple winners will get to try the experience that day.
So what even is this? It’s one of Airbnb’s special celebrity experiences where you can go all immersive for a night and fulfill some dreams. This ‘Star in Short n’ Sweet TVz with Sabrina Carpenter’ experience happens just as the star is rounding out the second North American leg of her Short n’ Sweet Tour this fall. It lets you, for one thing, pretend you’re a backup dancer on the tour, because Sabrina’s tour choreographer Jasmine “JB” Badie will teach you a routine while Sabrina cheers you on—and you can dress the part, because she'll bring some stage costumes and “you can choose from looks inspired by my tour dancers,” including satin robes, glitter tights and suit shirts and ties.

Is it really the set? No, but it’s a spot-on recreation that has the same vintage ‘70s TV show vibes as her tour. Yes, you can luxuriate in her clawfoot tub, sit at her vintage vanity and—well, we don’t need a verb, but there’s a heart-shaped toilet. The experience starts with you meeting Sabrina’s stage manager to get your headshots taken, and all your guests sign in for "a day on set” as crew members.
After you explore the penthouse, it’s hair and makeup time (Sabrina’s left you a mirror and tons of makeup so you aren’t brought to tears when you “just did your makeup so nice”) with Sabrina’s glam team Carolina Gonzalez and Evanie Frausto giving expert advice. Then you learn the dance routine and celebrate with...a non-alcoholic espresso tonic. Of course!
Since it’s a given you want to do this, here’s the info you need: Visit the Airbnb website for the experience to request the booking (you’ll need the app to do it, plus an active Airbnb account). You'll have to answer a question about why you want to go, so be ready to explain earnestly. From there, Airbnb randomly picks potential guests and reads their responses to narrow the field. And then: they invite selected guests to book. It’s free to apply, and it’s free if you win!
The fine print: you have to live in an eligible country to participate, and Airbnb doesn’t pay any travel fees to get you to the penthouse.
Sabrina says in a press release, “It’s so surreal to invite you into my penthouse on Airbnb. The Short n' Sweet tour wouldn't exist without my fans, and it only feels right to end it together, in the place I’ve called home over these past two years."
