Is Saturday Night Live New Tonight, April 6, 2024?
Here are the details on Saturday Night Live's April 6th episode Host and musical guest. Find out why it's bound to be a special night!
Who is hosting Saturday Night Live this weekend (April 6, 2024), and is it a new episode? Check out everything to know, below.
It's hard to believe we're nearing the finale of what's been an incredible season of Saturday Night Live. In October 2023, the show came back strong for Season 49 following a slightly-shortened Season 48. It kicked off with Pete Davidson returning to host an episode that began with a heartfelt cold open and featured a hilarious Barbie parody.
Davidson wasn't the only former cast member to return to 30 Rock; Kate McKinnon also hosted a holiday episode complete with cameos from a few beloved alums.
Subsequent SNL episodes in 2023 and 2024 found Bad Bunny pulling double duty as Host and musical guest, while stand-up comedian Nate Bargatze became a new favorite SNL Host in a highly-rated October 28 episode.
And on December 2, 2023, Oscar winner Emma Stone became the youngest member of the Five Timers Club. Will she be the season's sole induction? Read on to find out!

Wiig has previously hosted in 2013, 2016, and twice in 2020. April 6's musical guest is British singer-songwriter Raye.
