NYC Broadway Week runs from 8 to 20 September 2026. Twenty-five productions take part, and the offer is the one it has always been: buy two tickets, pay for one. Sales opened on 18 August.

What is in it

& Juliet, Aladdin, The Book of Mormon, Buena Vista Social Club, Chicago, The Great Gatsby, Hadestown, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Just in Time, The Lion King, The Lost Boys, Maybe Happy Ending, MJ, Oh Mary!, Operation Mincemeat, The Outsiders, Paranormal Activity, The Rocky Horror Show, Schmigadoon!, School Girls; Or, the African Mean Girls Play, Six, Stranger Things: The First Shadow, Titaníque, Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York) and Wicked.

It is a wide list on purpose: long-runners that will still be there next year sit beside productions in their first season, and at half price those are worth very different things.

The catch is the calendar, not the price

Each show sets its own blackout dates and releases its own allocation. The offer existing on a given day and the offer existing for the show you want on that day are two separate questions, and only the second decides your evening.

Check the individual listing before committing, and before booking anything around it. The usual way this goes wrong is a dinner reservation made for a night the show had blacked out.

Seats, not shows

A two-for-one discounts a seat rather than a production, so it is worth most where the seat was expensive to begin with. In a big house built on stagecraft the gap between a good seat and a bad one is wide, and the allocation decides which you get. In a small house the same offer buys proximity — which is most of what the ticket was for.

Broadway Week runs twice a year, in January and September, and the September edition lands in the quiet stretch after the summer tourists and before the holiday run-up — which is why the discounted seats tend to be better ones than the winter edition offers.
