I've been entering daily and no luck so far. Did anyone win the lottery yet? I have a feeling this might be just as difficult as Hamilton.

I won the lottery for the April 2nd performance! My seats were C19 and C21 in the Mezz.

oh no. Unlike Ham lottery which I've entered for years even back in the in person days, I won Hadestown digital lottery on Saturday 4/6. Seats were the end of Row D Mezzanine.

Just won for tomorrow's (Saturday) matinee. Of course I won 2 days after seeing it through TDF. I had G12 in the Orchestra with TDF so I'm interested to see if I'll also get Mezz seats and, if so, how the view differs from up there.

Do you think I'll have better luck if I request 2 tickets versus 1 ticket?

Can't say for others, but I always request one ticket (and won for one ticket this time). I wouldn't think anyone would really be able to guess one way or another, sadly. I keep trying to figure out the odds, but besides shows like Hamilton and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child where they have a set number of seats and it's not just randomly scattered throughout the theater, you can't really know because one day could be x tickets (an odd number?) and one day y tickets (even maybe?)  so I go for 1 because I can't be assed to coordinate other people's schedules

Sorry for the double post, just wanna say today I had Orchestra E7.

Any updates here? Based on the latest Rush reports, I'm guessing the lottery is turning more Hamilton-esque by the day?

I've entered for every performance since it was listed on Lucky Seat, sometimes for one seat and sometimes for two.  No luck, but I haven't won anything on Lucky Seat since Jujamcyn switched to their lottery service rather than running it in-house.  Hope we have better luck in the future.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Guess we will just keep trying and keep our fingers crossed!

I've been playing the lottery and stalking Ticketmaster for an affordable seat.I just saw several standard price seats in the Mezz for $119 for next Tuesday. Not lottery prices but better than the normal $249.

There’s always hope...I have been entering the Lottery for a while now with no luck. I got the usual “Unfortunately...” e-mail today for tomorrow’s performances. But at 4:11 today I got a text saying that this was an “Update” and that there were unclaimed Lottery tickets for tomorrrow’s matinee and that I was next on the list for tickets for tomorrow’s matinee. It stated I should check my e-mail for details. I had till 5:00 to purchase the ticket. I did and I’m going! Very excited. Never saw it before so I’m going in kind of cold except for music selections on talk shows, etc. Surprised that there would be no claimers for Lottery tickets on Tony Weekend but I’m not complaining!

I haven’t won the lottery yet but I can only enter for Wednesday and Saturday matinee shows so I’m likely not going to win. But I wanted to say I’m seeing the show at today’s matinee too for the third time and you’re in for a treat. I hope you enjoy! It keeps me coming back!

Great! Thx, BLs68! You sound like a fellow theatregoer like me- I’ve seen the Yiddish Fiddler 12 times, so far!
