    Probably not. T&Cs on applausestore.com for normal BGT audience tickets state...

    Will we be able to meet the celebrities or guests appearing on the show?
    Although the 'stars' enjoy having you in the studio as their guests, they are working, and time does not permit personal interaction with each and every audience member. On certain occasions there may be an opportunity for a handshake or an autograph, but we can't promise that simply due to time constraints and the number of guests involved.


    If you got VIP tickets, you might just get a better seat.

    Unless you specifically get tickets that state you will meet the judges, eg: through a competition, then I would very much doubt they would have time to meet and greet the audience.

    PS: I didn't see any VIP tickets listed but thanks for bringing this up, I've applied for a couple of other shows I like!

    Thanks for answer, I am registered with applause and we got free tickets to show and I even got myself on stalls ground floor as I am quite persuasive, LOL. My husband lets me do all the talking and keeps quiet.LOL. But when I was on ground the celebs of BGT only came down central isle and I thought !!!!!!, as I wanted to meet Simon and David but was at other end of isle.

    Thats when I did a search for VIP tickets as normally they would only be like 2 anyways in a competition but could not see any for the shows I wanted.

    Good luck with the shows you applied for.

    My daughters won VIP tickets for the semi final in 2011. They went backstage before the show were able to say a quick hello to JLS but were never given the chance to speak to the judges even though they were stood in the same area for a period of time.

    Thats a shame really as i guess to be honest thats one of the reasons they had the tickets in the first place. I bet they were disappointed really.
