We were planning a trip to the San Gennaro Fesival (Sept. 22, via MetroNorth, for the day), but now thinking about mid-October. Does anyone know: is TKTS up and running in Times Square? Any idea what shows are available there? Also heard on TV that some hotels are running specials. Is there a website that would list those hotels & the dates involved?

I believe I heard that San Gennaro was cancelled-check to be sure..

The most-likely cancelation of San Gennaro is one reason why we are now considering mid-October. Our not cancelling a "day in the city" is our response to the Mayor's request that we continue to support NYC. But thanks for the caution.

TKTS is up and running. Business at shows has been way off and four shows announced they will be closing at the end of this week
Thousand Clowns
Rocky Horror Show
Blast
CAn't recall name of fourth.

If you are not contending with significant anxiety, please come and see some shows--I imagine it is a good opportunity to get tickets, and Broadway needs you. And the mood is okay for doing this, you will not be thought insensitive.

Right now, you can pretty get tickets for just about every show except The Producers and The Lion King at TKTS. While the situation may "improve" by the time you come, the chances are that most shows will be available at TKTS.
So far there are five shows closing this weekend. In addition to the three previously mentioned, the other two are Stones in His Pocket and If You Ever Leave Me, I'm Going with You. Further, there are reports that others may be forced to close soon, as well.
The San Gennaro Festival is definitely cancelled.
