Broadway Theaters to Open at 100% Capacity in September
Broadway will fully reopen its doors this September, in accordance with New York State’s health and safety guidance. Beginning May 6, and throughout May, tickets for Broadway shows, which begin Sept. 14, will be made available for sale at 100% of theater capacity.
The announcement follows the reopening of performing arts and live entertainment venues at limited capacities last month. “Broadway is at the core of our New York identity, and a big part of our economy which employs countless performers and show creators, and beginning this September, the show will go on,” said Governor Andrew Cuomo.
Cuomo noted that visitors worldwide have come to see performances on Broadway, “and sadly, the pandemic put this unique New York experience on pause. Thankfully, as we continue to monitor the data and reopen our economy, we are now on track to allow full capacity performances on Broadway.”
