Blue Man Group “A New Holiday Surprise” will sell $35 seats through a digital lottery and $40 rush tickets at the box office when it starts at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre on Thursday, November 12.
The lottery is run online by Broadway Direct; the rush is in person only. Both are offered for every performance in limited numbers, and either can land you a partial-view seat.
Digital lottery, $35. Entries open 48 hours before a performance and close 24 hours before it. Winners are told within minutes of the draw and then have 60 minutes to claim and pay. You may enter once a day, for up to four tickets. Entries go through lottery.broadwaydirect.com.
In-person rush, $40. Sold only at the Lunt-Fontanne box office, from opening time on the day of the performance; for an 11 a.m. performance, rush goes on sale the day before. The limit is four tickets per person. Box office hours are posted on Broadway Direct’s page for the theater, so check them before you set out.
The show is a double first for the company: its first holiday production and its first time in a Broadway house. The Blue Men play seasonal favorites on their own custom-built instruments while puzzling their way through the season’s traditions. The limited run ends January 3, 2027, and opening night is November 17.
The move uptown comes 35 years after the trio first appeared at the Astor Place Theatre in 1991, where they gave more than 17,000 performances before the run ended in February 2025. Our report on the Broadway announcement has more on the production.
