Does anyone know if there is an age minimum on lotteries, especially WICKED. I am bringing my 9 year old niece to NYC for her first time in a few months and she wants to know if SHE can enter the lottery for herself. Thanks in advance for the help!
PS I checked the official WICKED site and it didn't say anything about age limitations at all.
I'm almost 100% sure she can enter. I think I saw someone that age enter a few weeks ago.

Back when Spelling Bee had a lottery they didn't have an age minimum, but if you did't have a photo ID they wouldn't let you sign up.

Age does not matter. So long as she has a photo ID then she can enter.
My sister was entering ticket lotteries when she was 12. Sometimes she had a library card on her, other times they said that as long as a parent or older sibling was with her and had a photo ID it would be fine.
Always ask when you get there, though.

yes, she can enter. they dont make kids have id as long as they have someone else there with them.

No age limit as long as an adult with them has an ID in case they win. My daughter's nose barely cleared the box office window ledge when she won lotto at "A Chorus Line."
I'd say bring your niece's passport or report card or something and make it an event just to enter. Your odds are 1-30 with two people at the Wicked lotto, so don't bank on first time winning, though.
However, if she does win, slip her the money and hover while she lines up to buy her pair with her ID. That could be more thrilling than the flying monkeys!
