A rehearsal took place at 2pm, which was filmed but not broadcast.
The performance took place at The Beatles' Miami hotel, the Deauville, from 8pm-9pm, in front of an audience of 2,600. CBS had given out 3,500 passes, and police had to calm angry ticket holders who were denied entry.
The Beatles performed six songs:
She Loves You
This Boy
All My Loving
I Saw Her Standing There
From Me To You
I Want To Hold Your Hand.
This was the last show taped, although the second one broadcast.
This clip shows the rare taped rehearsal before the actual broadcast, with Lennon in rare form as usual.
The show was watched by an estimated 70 million people in 22,445,000 homes, and was repeated on 20 September 1964 at 8pm.
