In 1964, a group of friends from Maplewood, New Jersey, embarks on a wild adventure to New York City with a singular purpose: to see The Beatles perform on "The Ed Sullivan Show." The group includes the enthusiastic and determined Janis, the Beatles-obsessed Rosie, the skeptical and pragmatic Grace, the competitive Larry, the lovesick Tony, and Larry's reluctant girlfriend Pam. Each character has their unique reason for wanting to be part of this historical event, whether it's for love, journalistic ambition, or just to be part of the hysteria surrounding the band's arrival in America.

Their journey is fraught with misadventures as they navigate Beatlemania's chaos and fervor. The friends split up and find themselves in various predicaments, including sneaking into the band's hotel and getting involved in clashes with security and other equally fervent fans. Despite their different motivations and constant obstacles, their shared goal brings them closer together. Along the way, they each experience personal growth and insights about their lives, friendships, and dreams while being swept up in the cultural phenomenon of The Beatles' first appearance on American television.
