Update, 10/22/19: Gilmore stans, a trip to California may be in order. In true Christmas spirit, the Warner Bros. backlot is turning into Stars Hollow once again. Between December 21, 2019 and January 5, 2020, three Studio Tours (the basic Studio Tour, Classics Made Here Tour and Deluxe Tour) will feature a trip to Lorelai's house, Stars Hollow High, Luke's Diner, and the iconic gazebo.
As with last year's event, you can fulfill a life dream and have lunch at Lorelai's, complete with Pop-Tarts, coffee, hamburgers, and hot dogs. It wouldn't be a proper Gilmore experience if you didn't leave feeling a little too full, ya know?
Book tickets on the Warner Bros. website and get your stretchy pants and wallet ready: This year, there's a pop-up shop inside Lorelai and Rory's house with clothing, mugs, keychains, notepads, and more.

Original Post: 12/10/18: Where you lead, I will follow...all the way to the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank, CA. For Christmas lunch. At Lorelai Gilmore's house!!! I'm so excited I can't even form full sentences.
Gilmore Girls fans, it's time to be as rash as Rory when she stole that boat and book a last-minute plane ticket to LA. From December 22 through January 6, you can take a Warner Bros. studio tour and get access to a holiday lunch inside the one, the only, Lorelai Gilmore's home. It's basically a Christmas miracle.
The house will be decorated as it was for the holidays, with props and costumes from the show inside, and a holiday spread will be available to purchase (it's not included in the studio tour cost, FYI). To be honest, the menu sounds way too healthy to be Gilmore approved, but it does sound good. Choices include oven roasted turkey breast with cranberry-shallot sauce, lemon garlic roasted chicken, veggie burgers, fries, homestyle macaroni salad, garlic buttered corn, salads, and more.
After you eat, you can mosey on over to the show's iconic gazebo to take photos and recreate any and all pivotal gazebo scenes (the picnic! that dramatic Luke and Lorelai kiss! Rory's final four words!).
If you're ready to head to Stars Hollow, Studio Tour tickets are available on Warner Bros. website. The tour itself lasts roughly 2.5 to 3 hours, and includes both guided and self-guided portions. At the end of the tour, you're free to explore the stage and Lorelai’s house on your own.
