Over the course of the day, theatres will continue to send tickets to the TKTS Shows booths, depending upon how a particular show is selling.  Generally, the discount tickets that are available at the booths are for shows that are not likely to sell out. So don\u2019t expect to find tickets to the most popular shows here. That being said, there are several other options to find discounted tickets to the top shows. Some people prefer this method, as you\u2019re able to purchase discount tickets online, as well as in advance. (Remember: you can only purchase same-day tickets at TKTS NYC booths.)<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"nyctktsbooths5\">Prices &amp; Discount Availability on TKTS Booths New York<\/h2>\n<p> The first TKTS booth has been around for over 40 years. In the past, it was common to find half off tickets for most shows. However, nowadays, availability runs out quickly and the half off shows are harder to come across. With that being said, all tickets sold at the TKTS booths will have some sort of a discount. Everyday, each show will decide how many tickets they want to send to TKTS, as well what they\u2019d like the discount to be (50%, 40%, 30%, or 20%). Since different shows have different ticket prices, it\u2019s hard to say what the average show will cost at a TKTS booth. However, a Broadway ticket discounted at 50% doesn&#8217;t mean that you will get 50% off on all categories. As stated earlier, TKTS generally has good inventory of Orchestra tickets while Mezzanine sections have poor availability.  There are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/broadway-tickets-c-24\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">other vendors like Headout<\/a> that allow you to purchase tickets at similar discount rates, but via an online method. In addition to same-day performances, you can also purchase tickets for shows at a later date. With Headout, you can get inventory for all sections at prices that are cheaper than those available on official websites sold via Ticketmaster and Telecharge. There are no hidden charges and markups. We also have a system whereby you don&#8217;t need to worry about getting the tickets printed or paying mail charges to Ticketmaster\/Telecharge as our volunteers give away physical tickets on the day of the experience directly at the theatre.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/broadway-tickets-c-24\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Browse our entire collection of Broadway shows now. <\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"nyctktsbooths6\">Tips for TKTS Booth New York<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"#\"><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>TKTS offers a free smart-phone app that feeds live info about which shows are currently available at a discount. This is extremely useful not just while you&#8217;re waiting in line, but also when you&#8217;re deciding whether it&#8217;s worth it to wait in line at all, say because the weather is pretty darned awful. <\/li>\n<li>If you&#8217;re an intrepid soul, and you don&#8217;t mind getting a bit wet or being a tad cold, the TKTS line will very likely be shorter on crummy days. Snowy days in particular. So if you happen to be in New York during a blizzard or a nor&#8217;easter, and you&#8217;ve brought your weather gear with you, you might just score some really choice seats at a bargain price.<\/li>\n<li>Most of the people waiting in the TKTS line want to see the big flashy musicals. If you&#8217;re interested in seeing something with a bit less bling, TKTS has a separate line for people who are only interested in plays. Even on a day when the regular line is ginormous, the play-only express line tends to be a mere fraction of the size.<\/li>\n<li>The longest lines usually occur right when the TKTS booth opens (which varies by location), the shortest lines an hour or so before showtime. Plus, tickets are released at various times throughout the day, so you don&#8217;t necessarily have to be there from the beginning to get the best seats.<\/li>\n<li>TKTS has a great repeat-customer service called TKTS 7-Day Fast Pass. If you&#8217;ve purchased a ticket at the Times Square TKTS booth, you can return within seven days with your TKTS ticket stub and use it to cut the line and walk right up to window #1.<\/li>\n<li>Keep in mind you can get discounted tickets online, too, although not through TKTS. Many of the shows that are listed at TKTS have online discount codes, and you can buy those tickets in advance. Also be on the lookout for reps from individual shows handing out flyers to people standing in the TKTS line.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"nyctktsbooths7\">TKTS App<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"#\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>TKTS Discount Booths have become popular destinations for theatre lovers from around the world.

When you get to the front of the line, the tickets seller\u2019s computer will always retrieve the best available seats for the show.<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Are the \u2018best\u2019 tickets available when TKTS booths first open?<\/h4>\n<p>No. Although the bulk of tickets are available in the morning, shows also  release tickets to TKTS later in the day, sometimes even right before curtain time.<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Can I buy full-price tickets at TKTS?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes you can, but only from the TKTS Booth at Times Square. Window #1 here sells full-price tickets for future performances and same-day full-price tickets.<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Can I use other discount codes or coupons if I\u2019m purchasing a ticket at the Full-Price Window at the Times Square TKTS booth?<\/h4>\n<p>No. You may only purchase same-day, full-price tickets. You will need to go to the theatre box offices to use any special discounts, or you can select from various <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/broadway-tickets-c-24\/\">other discount ticket options that often accept coupon codes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Are premium tickets sold at TKTS? [Premium tickets are a reserved for a particular theatre\u2019s best seats, and are thus, priced higher than the rest of a show\u2019s tickets.]<\/h4>\n<p>If premium tickets have not sold 48 hours before the performance, computer software knocks most of them down to the regular top ticket price. Depending on the show and demand for tickets, any leftover seats are sent to TKTS anywhere from thirty minutes to two hours before the performance. If you are willing to take the risk, you can try your luck at TKTS 30-60 minutes before the booth closes.<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Got more questions?<\/h4>\n<p> Please refer to our complete guide on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/tkts-broadway-tickets\/\" target=\"_&quot;blank&quot;\" rel=\"noopener\">TKTS Booths in New York City<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/broadway-tickets-c-24\/?bi=JTdCJTIydCUyMiUzQSUyMkdldCUyMCUyNDE1JTIwb2ZmJTIweW91ciUyMG5leHQlMjBCcm9hZHdheSUyMGV4cGVyaWVuY2UuJTIyJTJDJTIyZCUyMiUzQSUyMjE0OTUwMjU5MDgwMDAlMjIlMkMlMjJjJTIyJTNBJTIyQldBWTIwMTglMjIlMkMlMjJ3aWxkQ2FyZCUyMiUzQSUyMldFRUtMWSUyMiU3RA==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix-open.headout.com\/blog\/Banner\/Broadway+Strip.png\" style=\"width: 760px;\" alt=\"discounted broadway tickets\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"3482431403\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"nyctktsbooths9\">More Broadway Guides<\/h2>\n<p>For more Broadway information, here are some helpful quick links!<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/best-way-buy-broadway-tickets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix-open.headout.com\/blog\/media\/images\/New+York\/BroadwayTheatre+District+NYC.jpg?auto=compress&amp;fm=pjpg&amp;w=500&amp;h=1000&amp;q=30\" alt=\"Broadway Discount Tickets\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"283594668\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"><b>How To Buy Broadway Discount Tickets<\/b> <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix-open.headout.com\/blog\/Broadway\/Bands+visit.jpeg?auto=compress&amp;fm=pjpg&amp;w=500&amp;h=1000&amp;q=30\" alt=\"Best Broadway Shows\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"861174493\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"><b>Best Broadway Shows<\/b> <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/broadway-theater-seating-charts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix.headout.com\/media\/images\/4714588a315a9797dcdc880d372d6142-Radio%20City%20Music%20Hall.jpeg?auto=compress&amp;fm=pjpg&amp;w=500&amp;h=1000&amp;q=30\" alt=\"Broadway Seating Chart\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"189535549\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"><b>A-Z Broadway Theater Seating Charts<\/b> <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/broadway-new-york-theatre-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix-open.headout.com\/blog\/media\/images\/New+York\/BroadwayTheatre+District+2+NYC.jpg?auto=compress&amp;fm=pjpg&amp;w=500&amp;h=1000&amp;q=30\" alt=\"Broadway Guide\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"1066735850\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"><b>NYC Broadway Theater Guide<\/b> <\/a><\/p>\n<p>See more Broadway.
