If you're from out of town (or even a New Yorker who normally avoids the theater district like the plague), securing coveted seats to blockbuster musicals, plays, and other live shows on Broadway can be confusing. But with a bit of planning, it's more accessible than ever to buy Broadway tickets to some of the most successful shows — like Hamilton , Wicked , and Chicago .
Right now, we're seeing a lot of stars onstage who have gone on to win Tony Awards, from Nathan Lane in Death of a Salesman to Daniel Radcliffe in Every Brilliant Thing . Even though most "big" stars are only onstage for a limited time, there are still ways you can buy Broadway tickets online.
If you don't want to wait in line for hours to secure tickets at the box office, be kept on hold while calling a ticket service, or pay a million extra fees, we've got the best tips on how to find the best tickets to Tony Award-winning shows from the comfort of your own home.
If you think you have to be in the Big Apple to order tickets physically, you don't. There are still a couple of things to keep in mind when researching the availability and pricing for the shows you want to go to, so keep these in mind before showtime.
For a complete list of current and upcoming Broadway shows, we recommend checking out Broadway.org first, the Broadway League's official online site for all the theater information you'll need. This will give you a good idea of which shows are open, a theater district map, and details about the shows.
While it may seem old school, you can always call up ticket vendors on the phone, like Telecharge and even Ticketmaster , if at the very least, to check show dates, times, and what price point different seats are going for. And if you crave an adrenaline rush, or if you're only a few subway stops away, buying tickets in person from the theater's box office lets you select the performance date and time you want to see, often without additional handling fees. That being said, most box offices are only open between 12 p.m. and curtain call for the show at the theater, so it'll be a bit of a mad dash.
There are a few primary online ticket vendors used by Broadway theaters, including Telecharge, Vivid Seats , Ticketmaster , StubHub , SeatGeek , and TodayTix .
In general, ticket prices will range anywhere from $20-$700+ dollars (although the higher end skews almost exclusively towards buzzy celeb castings), depending on where you're sitting, performance dates, and times. Expect a premium for ticket prices on high-capacity days, like weekend evenings, and for seats in the floor and lower-level mezzanine sections.
BONUS : Use promo code RS30 to get a $30 discount on orders of $300+ on VividSeats.com
You can always check online for discounted Broadway tickets , including group discounts, student discounts, standing-room discounts, and rush tickets, which most theaters frequently offer. However, in this case, you'll probably have less wiggle room regarding dates, what time you can see the show, and what seat you end up in (probably the upper mezzanine, if we're being honest).
Buying and reserving tickets online is still one of the easiest ways to see a Broadway show without the hassle or extra steps of the box office. You can show up at the theater at showtime with a few clicks and taps.
So you're all geared up to buy tickets — but what's even playing? Here's a list of some of our favorite returning, Tony-nominated- and winning- Broadway shows, and how you can snag some seats online in just a few minutes.

When Moulin Rouge! first made its way to Broadway in 2019, fans flocked to see the hit production light up one of the world's biggest stages. Now, the 10-time Tony Award-winning musical is preparing to take its final bow on Aug. 30. While that's bad news for fans of the show, there's a silver lining: Aaron Tveit, who originated the role of Christian when the musical first arrived on Broadway, will return for a limited run from Aug. 18 through 29, and tickets are still available. Over the course of Moulin Rouge! 's wildly successful Broadway run, we've seen plenty of headline-making stunt casting, from Megan Thee Stallion stepping into the role of Zidler to some of Broadway's biggest stars taking on Christian. While Tveit will be one of the final actors to play the role before the curtain falls, loyalists won't have to say goodbye to the production forever. The musical will continue its run overseas. Still, if you want to experience Moulin Rouge! on Broadway before it's lights out, now's the time to grab your tickets while they're still available. This historic closing deserves all the flowers, and you won't want to miss your final chance to see it on the Great White Way.
There's never been a better time to catch one of Broadway's longest-running American musicals, Chicago — especially now that America's Sweethearts star Reece Weaver is set to take over the iconic role of Roxie Hart from Sept. 7 through Oct. 18, 2026. You can still snag tickets to see the former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader bring her signature high kicks to the stage… this time, with a little less sideline and a lot more spotlight.
Schmigadoon! was the winner of the 2026 Tony Award for Best New Musical, and if history has taught us anything, it's that shows that take home Broadway's top prize tend to see ticket prices climb fast. If you're hoping to catch this one, we wouldn't wait too long to grab a seat. The production has been widely praised for feeling like a classic musical from the Forties with a modern, magical twist.
