Discounted Broadway in Boston Tickets

General Rush tickets are a limited number of tickets for sale at the box office when it opens for the day of the performance. Certain shows get busy very early, like 7am, so plan to spend some time in line. Seat locations may vary. Usually the limit is 2 tickets per person purchasing, but that can change per show.

Digital lotteries can vary from platform to platform and are best done via apps like Today Tix or Lucky Seat anywhere from one day to several days in advance. Hamilton has it’s own app that you can enter every Friday.

With every show, check often as show times and ticket info can change.

Some theaters have reduced price ticket programs for younger people,  like Roundabout’s HipTix or $30 Under 35 from a number of theaters. Check our page devoted to these discounts.
