Discounted Blue Man group tickets
 
Does Blue Man group offer discounted tickets (similar to TKTS when buying day of)? So far I am only able to find the fixed $75 tickets.
Thank you.

Are you asking specifically about their NYC show, or any of the cities in general? I can't help either way, but someone else may need this info. It wouldn't do to tell you how to get discount tickets in Chicago, if you only want to see them in NYC. ;)

Sorry, I should have specified the city. I need tickets in NYC.
Thanks!

That's a good price. Buy.

Check on theatermania.com They may be slightly less but in general, discounts not available.

Maybe I can help a little. Have you tried calling the box office direct at 212.254.4370? I called the Chicago box office direct when I bought tickets for that show. There was a small service fee per ticket, maybe $3 or something like that. Currently, Ticketmaster is showing tickets for Blue Man Group in NYC sell for $59 and $69 (before all the ticketmaster fees, etc.) so maybe you could save a couple dollars from $75 if you go directly with the box office. It's not much, but it all helps. :)

Oh - and if you have the opportunity to see them in Chicago instead of NYC, you could save $13 per ticket that way.

You will never see Blue Man Tickets discounted, and the box office has the fewest "extra fees". Book through them. Easy to just call and pick up tickets day of show. Have seen it 3 times. :)

Thank you all for your help. I have seen BMG once a long time ago. I would like to take my 10 year niece- i think she would like it. Would you have any other recommendations for something a 10 year old girl would enjoy?
Thanks again!

Hairspray and Lion King.

Some other shows a 10 year old girl would like are Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and perhaps Beauty and the Beast, both of which should have discounts available on broadwaybox.com !

Forgot about off Broadway!! Cookin' is a percussion show that might be fun and there are discounts for that. I see Pilobus is at the Joyce dance theater and that would also be fun for her and only ~$35.

All Shook Up on Broadway with Elvis Presley music might also be fun and perhaps Movin' Out with Billy Joel music.
