I just got through and got the confirmation email as well.

It worked for me on the second try. This does make me nervous for when tickets go on sale, though.

Seems to be easing up one hour into the process.  Here in Cali I managed to register at 8:07am pacific time.  Hope I have better luck than I did with Springsteen. 

My window to attend will be very limited.  Just three days next June.  You can call me Phyllis Sophical though.  There will be other Junes in the future.

I DO have Frozen for June.

I had no problem registering on my phone just now; try mobile if you're having issues.

After 7 tries I got in. Hopefully I get a code!

I tried the first time at about 10:50 and it didn't work. Just tried again and received my registration email. Now hoping for the access code on the 16th.

At 11:15, I went to their website, logged into ticketmaster and received a confirmation email. My Mom then did the same thing at 11:20, also received a confirmation email. Guess we got lucky!

Finally completely finished registration about twenty minutes ago. Received my confirmation almost immediately!

Saw this at the end of the email and thought it was...interesting.

*Purchase windows will vary, please refer to the email you will receive on Monday, October 16 to identify your purchase window. Your Access Code will not be active until your designated purchase window has opened.

Seems like this could be great, but also bad. If you’re in the last purchase window, what will your selection be?

Glad I checked on here.  I submitted my registration but did not receive a confirmation or email.  I had to register again and on the second attempt it was clear that my registration went through.

I saw this too! Could be a good way to deal with too much traffic all at once? This was not the case for the latest block of Hamilton tickets that used the verified fan system...so I’m not sure what to expect. Right now I’m just hoping to get a code at all though.

Tried off and on earlier today, w/no luck.   Got through now (12:15) and was successful on the first try.

 

As to the staggered timing....I hope  that means they are staggering the release of tickets.   One can hope.

 

Does anyone know how far out they are selling in this first release?  (I don't mind waiting until the summer as long as I get tix!)

They’ve responded on Twitter that the first block is through Nov. 18.

I got through on my first try a little after noon. I think the staggered times will be excellent if they’re well-executed. Good luck to all!

This is what I am wondering about as well. Also, how long is the window? An hour? Two hours? 

Since not everyone is guaranteed an access code, those that get one will then most likely be split into the   purchase windows. 

Also, is this pre-registration and purchase window similar to how they did the tickets for the London show?

I decided to just try on my phone instead of my desktop and it worked right away.  So damn annoying.

Posted: 10/1/17 at 12:57pm

Had no issues, I wonder how popular this is really going to be. I’m starting to think I may have no shot at tickets

It was selling close to a year in advance in London, I expect it'll be similar here (though the Lyric does have more seats than the Palace in London).

^the Lyric is being shrunk down to 1400 seats. Which would bring it to around the same size.

Well, I take back that part of my post, then. 

[LesWickedly]

Posted: 10/1/17 at 1:26pm

All I know is that if I get a code, I won’t even waste time going for the $20 or $40. While the higher prices aren’t ideal, it’s worth it for me and might be easier to get.

My group of friends that are (hopefully) planning to see this are pretty much expecting to break the bank on this. We figure it's going to be running on Broadway for the next several thousand years, so if we're going to see it at the very start with the original cast, we might as well go big.

I haven't even considered pricing!  I'm trying to decide on whether to go with my first choice dates (In April) or go right to July/August.   Hmmmmmmm

Between this and Angels I have pretty much resigned myself to having no money for a while LOL. That is if I can get one of these access codes...

[swanjewel]

Posted: 10/1/17 at 2:44pm

I'm also trying to figure out dates. I want to try for April and if that doesn't work jump to summer dates and if that doesn't work jump to later in the year. As for pricing, I'm staying away from the cheaper tickets.
