How to Access Priority Sales
Current NYCB subscribers and donors at the $250 Advocate level and above enjoy priority access to single tickets for both 23-24 repertory performances and the upcoming engagement of George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker®. With this advance ticketing benefit, qualifying patrons can secure prime locations at the best prices, even for in-demand holiday weekends, before we go on sale to the general public.
This early access is also an opportunity to secure tickets for the following in-demand performances, including the recently announced farewell of Principal Dancer Russell Janzen:
— 23-24 Opening Night (SEPT 19)
— Russell Janzen Farewell (SEPT 24)
— Fall Gala (OCT 5)
— 75th Anniversary (OCT 11)
— Spring Gala (MAY 2)
If you do not currently qualify for priority sales, you can take advantage of this benefit in two ways:
1. SUBSCRIBE
Flex packages start with a minimum of three repertory performances of your choice and come with an array of additional benefits, including flexible ticket exchange privileges so you can swap dates later if needed. Learn more about subscriber savings and conveniences on our website and craft your subscription package today. For personalized assistance, please call 212-496-0600 (Monday-Thursday 10 AM – 7:30 PM, Friday-Saturday 10 AM – 8 PM, and Sunday 10 AM – 5 PM), where subscription associates are standing by to assist and answer any questions you may have about ordering a NYCB package.
2. DONATE
NYCB’s supporters play an integral role in furthering our mission to preserve our extensive repertory, create new works, and make ballet accessible to everyone. Donor benefits correspond to your giving level and can include: live artist discussions, invitations to exclusive onstage rehearsals, and house seat upgrades for best locations. Explore giving opportunities online and donate $250 or more today to qualify for priority single ticket sales. For more information you can also contact members@nycballet.com or call 212-870-5677.
If you are currently a NYCB Member below the $250 level, you can make an additional gift to reach the Advocate level and qualify for priority sales.
Please Note
Qualifying subscribers and donors can purchase priority single tickets online, by phone at 212-496-0600, and in person at the Box Office (63rd and Columbus) through the end of the priority period on August 4, 2023.
If you’re planning to order online, you will need to log in to nycballet.com with your password (and not as a guest) in order to access ticketing during the priority period. Can’t remember if you previously created a registered login or which email address we have on file? Call us at 212-496-0600 where associates can answer any questions you may have about online ordering.
Once you make a qualifying subscription purchase or donation, it may take up to 48 hours before you can access priority single tickets online; however, you will be able to order by phone and in person immediately.
Orders of 15 or more tickets must be processed by NYCB Group Sales. Priority ticketing access is not available to individuals, households, or accounts with a history of purchasing bulk tickets. If the purchase of priority tickets is detected on the part of individuals, households, accounts, bots, or patrons creating duplicate accounts to conceal previous bulk ticket purchasing, orders may be cancelled and donations may be refunded without consideration.
George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker® is appropriate for children ages 5+. Additional fees are noted online where applicable. Required charges to phone, internet, and box office sales apply. All sales are final; no refunds or exchanges. Performances begin at the announced start time, and in deference to the viewing and listening pleasure of the audience in the auditorium, and to the performers onstage, there is no late or re-entry seating. We regret that we cannot replace or refund tickets for performances you miss.
