TKTS Gift Certificates


Do you want to give someone the gift of theatre? We recommend TKTS Gift Certificates, which are available in denominations of $25, $50 and $100 and work like cash at any TKTS Booth.

With TKTS Gift Certificates, they can decide what they want to see and when they want to see it!



At the Times Square Booth, the “Play Express” window does not sell tickets to musicals, dance or music performances. The line for this window therefore often moves more quickly.

TKTS Discount Booths offer tickets to Broadway and Off Broadway musicals and plays at up to 50% off. With dozens of productions on sale every day, there’s something for everyone!

TDF operates three TKTS Discount Booths in New York City

1. The Times Square Booth sells day-of-performance tickets only.
2. The South Street Seaport Booth sells tickets to evening performances on the day of the performance and matinee tickets the day before.
3. The Downtown Brooklyn Booth sells tickets to evening performances on the day of the performance and matinee tickets the day before as well as tickets to Brooklyn performing arts events.

TKTS Times Square,  TKTS South Street Seaport  and TKTS Downtown Brooklyn accept credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover), cash, traveler's checks or TKTS Gift Certificates.
(credit card gift cards are not accepted at any TKTS Booth)

All locations sell tickets at 50%, 40%, 30% and 20% off full price (plus a $4.00 per ticket service charge, which helps support other TDF services and programs. Additional non-TDF charges may apply). Availability and ticket inventory change throughout the day and at the discretion of individual productions.
