…and Giants, Jets, Yankees, Mets, Knicks
Getting half price Broadway tickets and discount New York Yankees tickets is easy, but it’s a trade off: time, value and your priorities. Here are all our local half price Broadway tickets secrets…
Discounts depend on the event popularity, how important seeing the show is to you and how much time you might spend on line during your NYC vacation.
If you plan to see Broadway Shows, TV Shows, Yankees Baseball or Giants Football, now is the time to look into tickets, since New York locals go every day! We don’t regularly go to tourist attractions or on bus tours, so you don’t have to worry about us booking those in advance. For the events we do attend, that’s over 8 million people with whom you are competing.
The exception is late November through January 1st and Easter Week. During the popular vacation times, the city is just insanely busy and everything is really crowded, but New York City Broadway Tickets or New York Yankee Tickets will still be sold out long before any tours or attractions.
Tourist attractions and bus tours are open and run almost every day, year-round, so work those around your half price Broadway tickets and other New York City event tickets.
Note: All of our ticket partners are legitimate, recommended ticket sellers and guaranteed to sell you official NYC Broadway tickets.

Top Picks for Broadway Tickets
Should I buy tickets in advance?
Most likely, you should, especially if:
- The show or event is something you really want to see
- You want great seats
- Are with four or more people
Ticketmaster
Ticketmaster Deals– lots of shows with 2 For 1, Me+3 and 4-Pack deals. Ticketmaster is the official seller of NFL, US Tennis Open and other direct tickets. On occasion, Ticketmaster sells tickets for a cancelled transaction to avoid a potential loss. For lower-demand events, tickets can sell below face value, resulting in great deals for bargain hunters. Most tickets can be printed electronically.
Ticketmaster (TM) is the primary ticket seller for all of the following:
- Concerts – almost every NYC concert venue sells their tickets through Ticketmaster: Madison Square Garden, Barclays Center, Beacon Theater, Radio City Music Hall, MetLife Stadium and many of the smaller venues.
- Sports – since all our teams play at those same venues, TM is the primary seller of Yankees, Mets, Rangers, Islanders, Giants, Jets, Knick, Nets and the US Open.
- Broadway – about half of all Broadway Theaters use Ticketmaster, including all the Disney shows, Harry Potter, Hamilton and more.

More on New York City Tickets and Agencies
StubHub
StubHub, the official ticket exchange of the MLB, is especially great for excellent seats, sold out and hard to find Broadway and Yankees Tickets. Sometimes you can find discount tickets, but it is usually a great place for popular shows, concerts and sports events. They are not a ticket broker, but a reputable company, owned by EBay, where individual sellers set the ticket prices.
Craigslist
https://newyork.craigslist.org/d/tickets/search/tia
Only use CL if you are savvy and have used it in your home town. Then, be a bit more skeptical in NYC.
So many tickets go last minute – this is where people who “all of a sudden have to work late,” try and sell their tickets. Craigslist NYC can be tricky, as there are potential scam-artists on the site, and there is no monitoring or repercussions.
You should NEVER send anyone money without having the tickets in your hand. Trust your gut – as you are exchanging emails with a potential seller, you should easily be able to gauge if they are legit or not. Most of the time if it sounds too good to be true, it is. So, while you may not get half price Broadway tickets, you may still get a significant discount.
NYC Insider Guide
Because of my long history and contacts in New York City, I get emails almost daily from people looking to sell or give away their tickets- usually some of the best seats in the house.

Brokers
There are countless ticket brokers in New York City who buy up tickets in bulk and resell them significantly above face value. Technically, this is illegal, but it is common practice. Many of the brokers are legitimate, just charge a lot of money. Ticket brokers should be used only if you are just dying to see a sporting or musical event.
