A Christmas Carol
 
Does anyone know how soon tickets will be on sale for this show at Madison Square Garden? Are they sold through Ticketmaster? Thanks.

That's a really good question. You might try the Madison Square Garden Website and see if the tickes are on sale or when they start to go on sale.
Ticketmaster also sells the tickets.

Ask about the "snow row", it's the last row of the orchestra and it's fun for the kids to get dumped with a few inches of "snow" at the end of the show. I didn't know about it when I saw the show and found little "snow" pieces (it's paper actually) in my coat for days after, lol.

The production is really great and is a hit every year. Since the cast walks around the audience and hands out candy to the kids, get seats at the end of the rows or the last row of the orchestra or the first row of the mezz.

Have a great time.

Thanks wantsomesun (I like that name)! No kids with us but it sounds like fun with the snow. I can't find anything on Madison Square Garden's website, nor on Ticketmaster to indicate a sale date. Anyone else know? I don't want to miss out!

You've got a while yet before tickets go on sale. It's not the big tourist draw that the Radio City Music Hall show is, so you should have no problem getting tickets.

Thanks Howard. I'll keep checking Ticketmaster occasionally. Just didn't want to miss out!

Lthom...If I remember correctly the tickets come around in October and it is at the theater at MSG if I rememebr I could be wrong. One way to tell is they usually start pushing it on Mrning Shows especially Regis , Today show etc. I've always wanted to go and never have, pretty sad considering I'll live a 25 minute express train ride intot he City and my husband works on Broadway.
It never cease to amaze me that people come to NYC all the time and we never fully utilize it.
