The Lion King on TKTS
TKTS NYC Discount Booths offer a variety of Broadway and Off Broadway tickets at 20% to 50% off regular prices. Tickets can only be purchased in person - on the day of the performance for evening shows, or the day prior for matinee performances. Seats are assigned at the discretion of the TKTS booth attendant and may be partial view.
TKTS obtains its inventory directly from theaters, based upon how a particular show’s tickets are selling at full-price.
Since “The Lion King” is one of the most popular musicals on Broadway, there is little to NO CHANCE that these tickets will ever be available at any of the four TKTS booths.
