Looks like those price bands continue through May 2019,

It looks like as you move toward the far sides, it does start to block the view based on photos online, but hoping these seats aren’t too far over. Would appreciate any thoughts anyone has if they’ve sat there. Just saw the show this past weekend from Orchestra,Row H, Seats 2-4, and it was awesome!"

I sat in A19, so almost the same seat on the other side. The railing is slightly annoying but it took minimal shifting to be able to see properly. You do need to face the stage at kind of an angle at that point anyway, though. 

I was randomly looking for tickets in early July and noticed Prime tickets are now $225 per part?! I can almost swear they were $189 per part just a few days ago. I'm guessing HP increased the prices for prime seats. Premium tix are now $325 per part (up from $299 per part)! Wow!

Anyone have an issue with ticketmaster not sending confirmation emails for their orders?? I ordered for a show next March but received nothing. It's in my ticketmaster order history and my credit card is showing the transaction. Never had this issue before

Yes, I've had the same issue, as well. As long as it's in your orders, though, it isn't a problem."

Agreed, I have the same issue. I take a screenshot of the confirmation page that pops up and also check under Orders. 

okay, thanks everyone. Just was making sure, this is the only time i've ever dealt with an issue like this via ticketmaster

Hey guys!

Just looking for some advice, if you don't mind. I know some of you have been following tickets for Cursed Child quite a lot. I am coming over from Australia for a 2 week trip in January. Cursed Child is a must for me. The seats that are available for my dates are the $165 + and mostly rear orchestra. I would love to get one below that price or at that price (and above) if it was a very good seat. If you were me would you just buy the best of the best available, or wait it out? Any advice would be appreciated!

I would absolutely wait it out.  The production has clearly been holding back lots of tickets (including plenty in Orchestra rows G, H, and J - GREAT seats).  If you're prepared to spend more than $165 which you seem to be, you'll definitely find much better seats at $225 (what used to be $199) or $325 (what used to be $299) as your date approaches.  Plus, they also seem to have held back seats elsewhere in the theater (or people who bought in the first release are just returning them) because periodic seats in the mezz and balcony also pop up at $155ish.  I'd say hold out for the seat you really want, it'll likely come up if you check ticketmaster semi-regularly (once a day or so).  Enjoy your trip to NYC!

After Martin Luther King day is definitely off-peak in Broadway. Broadwaycon occurs in late January and normally there are 2-4-1 sales for most Bway shows (I am curious whether Harry Potter will participate.)

However, the first week of January tends to be peak so it may be harder to get tickets unless you're willing to pay premium ticket prices.

I agree with the others though to wait it out. I bought HP tickets for my parents two weekends ago and I waited it out and managed to get them really good seats for non-premium price (row K orchestra ... it's the one with the great legroom) and they were very very happy with the seats!!!
