Frequently asked questions
How early should I book Broadway tickets?
Book as far ahead as you can. The farther out you book, the cheaper tickets tend to be: prices on the most in-demand shows rise as demand builds and inventory shrinks, so booking early gets you first pick of seats before prices climb.
Is it cheaper to book Broadway tickets early?
Yes. Ticket prices on TodayTix move with demand and tend to rise as a performance date nears and fewer seats remain. Booking early locks in a lower price and a wider choice of seats.
Do early-booked seats get better locations?
Generally yes. The best sightlines go first, so booking early gives you first access to premium orchestra and center-mezzanine seats before they're gone.
Can I book Off-Broadway tickets early too?
Yes. Off-Broadway shows and musicals across New York City also reward early booking, especially limited-run productions with a set closing date.
