Sho-Tunes-R-Us, the choice of will call has always been there for tickets. People that purchase through StubHub (which wouldn’t be that smart since you’re still able to get the highest price for most dates, which are cheaper than all StubHub tickets) would get the tickets a few days in advance when the scalper recieves them.

If you are in NYC, you can try the box office. I checked there today and they were able to find $20 for April 4th! I think it would help if you know the exact day you want to see the show though."

Do you get a physical ticket buying through the box office? What if you need to return it? 

I’m from Brazil and was thinking of asking a friend to stop by the B.O. and check if they have anything available for my November dates. Do you think this could work?

They should DEFINITELY let you search by price point.  It's a pain to go in each day and click through EVERY date only to find $299 tickets.

Oh, no, that wasn't my seat, I was just passing it along.

Sho-Tunes-R-Us said: "I have two separate questions - because I'm too darned lazy to go back through 100,000+ posts:

A.) Are all tickets still being issued only as mobile tix?

B.) Have you or anyone you know personally purchased tickets for HP through StubHub? Aren't all thosetickets mobile only?

I'm just having a hard time wrapping my tiny brain around the mobile ticket "phenomenon". I do know the incentive behind it, but does everyone eventually end up with his/her own ticket hours before the performance or must one individual "herd" others in the group attending (assume six is still the max in a group)? Guess I'm just a PDF kinda guy.

Would appreciate detailed replies for one or both of my queries. Thanks."

The first preview was sold mostly with paper physical tickets since 1200 of those tickets were sold exclusively through the box office; so pretty much most of the stubhub tix sold were physical tickets.

Most of the tickets that are available right now at the box office are for previews only but sure your friend can certainly try and ask for your November dates but keep the expectations low. If you need to return it, you probably have to go through the box office again and just bring the ticket and receipt. I'd have your friend ask when he/she goes to the BO for you.

With the whole new system, I hope this is still helpful.

 

2 tickets available on Ticketmaster: Wednesday, May 2,  Balcony Row C Seat 105-106 #165 per part/person

It looks like there are some pretty good deals on StubHub. For instance, there are 2 balcony row A seats available for this Thursday and Friday, $215 for both parts. With fees, these 2 tickets come to $530, which is $265 per seat. Divided by 2, this would be $132.50 per part, which is below Ticketmaster face value. Some people have reported that front-row balcony seats have been purchased at the box office for $40 per part, which is what I assume happened with these seats. While it is still a hefty markup from $40 per part, these seats have sold for $155-165 on Ticketmaster, so it is a nice savings. Also, they appear to be hard tickets, which can be picked up at the StubHub office, so no dealing with mobile tickets.

Thanks OP! Definitely some good values on StubHub for this date and even the weekend show. I was able to get some tickets for this Saturday from StubHub. Looking forward to the show! It seems like they are doing a combination of mobile and paper tickets. I thought it was mobile only, but it clearly looks like there are paper tickets also.

what is the seat location for the $20 you got for 4/4? 

[MyLife]

Posted: 3/20/18 at 12:20pm

I was able to transfer my tickets on Ticketmaster to another email address. If not, then pdfs of the tickets would be made available 3 days before the date of the show.

I think they'll release more tickets closer to November. You should ask your friend to check the box office every once on awhile though.

They're orchestra x3 and y3. They're cheaper, sooner and seemed better than the seats I originally got last October. 

BTW does anyone know how the view is from these seats?

Great! I wanted April 4 tickets and could never get. Those are center, should be terrific.

If anyone's looking to see the show tonight and tomorrow, orchestra B 13 (3rd row) is available on Ticketmaster for $189 per part. That's definitely a premium seat, since I noticed it earlier for $289.

About to return two tickets for Oct 21 (a 2-show Sunday). ORCH Left Row E, Seat 25 & 27. $199 each part/ticket when I bought them. (guessing it'll be the same). Found row G more toward the center, so these will be available however fast it takes TM to re-list them.

Released this seat at 3:00 p.m., EDT.

Flying in tomorrow night. If anyone has any single ticket for less than the Premium pricing, I'd love a shot at seeing the show this weekend before I leave.

Hi everyone, I am sorry if this has already been asked, but how is the view from the back of the dress circle?  Does the balcony cut off the top of the stage or is it high enough that this isn't an issue?  I'm Dress Circle row L center.  Thanks! :)

[CT2NYC]

So, it looks like they've pulled all the premium seats for tonight/tomorrow, and they're selling them as primes, $189 per part. I've seen B 13, N 22, E 10-12 so far, within the past hour. I'm curious if this is going to be a regular occurence, or maybe it's because of the snowstorm.

Really great prices on StubHub for tonight/tomorrow, starting at $100 for both parts, balcony row B.

You might want to try StubHub, but, if you'd like to go through Ticketmaster, there's a single seat available on there for this Saturday, dress circle center L 123, for $155 per part.
