Marquis Theatre Tickets: How They Work

Tickets go on sale production by production, because the Marquis does not run a season of its own, so you buy for a specific show and date, not for the theater. The Nederlander Organization sells official tickets through Broadway Direct and the theater box office. The ticket listings at the bottom of this page come from a third-party marketplace, so prices can run above face value.

Official Marquis Theatre tickets

For face-value tickets, start with Broadway Direct, the Nederlander Organization’s official online seller for the Marquis, or buy directly from the theater box office. Marketplace inventory can be useful when official seats are limited, but prices may be above face value and availability changes by performance.

Marquis Theatre box office

The box office is at street level at 210 W 46th St, on the 46th Street side of the hotel. Broadway Direct currently lists hours of 10 AM to 8 PM Monday through Saturday and noon to 7 PM on Sunday, and they can change, so confirm them before you make a special trip. American Express, Visa and Mastercard are accepted, and all ticket purchases are final.

Marquis Theatre group tickets

Broadway Direct currently handles group sales for parties of 12 or more for Stranger Things: The First Shadow. Groups can book online or call 800-714-8452 for help with dates, price levels and seating; confirm the minimum and current terms before collecting payment.

Buy for the show, then choose the seat

Start with the production and date, then compare sections. Prices vary by seat and performance, so check the face value before you pay a premium. When you are ready to choose, the Marquis Theatre seating guide compares the sections.

Look for rush and lottery options

Many Broadway productions offer day-of rush or lottery tickets, and each production sets its own policy. Our Broadway rush and lottery guide explains how they work, and when to buy Broadway tickets covers timing.

Marquis Theatre West 46th Street, New York, NY: Getting There

Address

Marquis Theatre, 210 W 46th St, New York, NY 10036

Between Broadway and 8th Avenue. The hotel’s own address is 1535 Broadway.

How the hotel-lobby arrival works

The box office and main entrance are at street level on 46th Street. From there, escalators and elevators take you up to the auditorium on the hotel’s third floor, and there is also a through-way between West 45th and 46th Streets. The Marriott Marquis theater entrance is well signed, but it is still a hotel, so expect crowds in the lobby. Venue guides also note that there is no cloakroom, so large bags and luggage are not allowed in.

Timing your arrival

Aim to arrive 25 to 30 minutes before curtain. Late seating is at management’s discretion.

By subway

The nearest station is Times Square–42nd Street (1, 2, 3, 7, N, Q, R, W, S), a short walk north to 46th Street. The A, C and E stop at 42nd Street–Port Authority on 8th Avenue, and Broadway Direct also points to the N and R at 49th Street and the C and E at 50th Street. Our guide to getting to a Broadway show covers transit, rideshare and timing.

By car

Garages are close by, at the southwest corner of Broadway and 46th Street, the southeast corner of 8th Avenue and 46th Street and the northwest corner of Broadway and 45th Street. See parking near Broadway.

Dinner before the show

Times Square is the densest part of the district, so pick your dinner spot in advance. Restaurant Row, on West 46th Street between 8th and 9th Avenues, is a short walk west. Be seated about 90 minutes before curtain. See the pre-show dining guide, restaurants near Broadway and the best restaurants in the Theater District.

Where to stay

The theater is inside the New York Marriott Marquis, and most Times Square and Midtown hotels are an easy walk. See hotels near Broadway and the Theater District neighborhood guide.

Accessibility, Stairs and Mobility at the Marquis

Every row is on a different step

Wheelchair seating is in the orchestra, reached by elevator from the hotel lobby and a ramp from the theater entrance level. Seating away from the wheelchair locations involves steps, because every row is set on its own step.

Getting in

The theater entrance is on the third floor of the hotel, and there are elevators from the hotel lobby. Contact the box office to arrange wheelchair seating and confirm the current provisions before you visit.

Restrooms and bars

Restrooms are outside the theater lobby in the hotel’s third-floor orchestra-level common area and on the mezzanine level. Broadway Direct lists three bars on the orchestra level and one on the mezzanine, serving alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks and snacks beginning 30 minutes before the performance.

Assistive listening

Headsets for sound augmentation are available at the theater free of charge, and accessible seats for guests who are blind, have low vision, or are deaf or hard of hearing are in the orchestra.

Marquis Theatre Broadway History and Notable Productions

The Marquis exists because of what came before it. Building the Marriott Marquis meant demolishing five theaters, including the original Helen Hayes, the Morosco and the Bijou, and city officials let architect John C. Portman Jr. build the hotel only if it included a new theater. It opened on July 9, 1986, and it has been one of the Nederlander Organization’s Broadway houses ever since.

It is a modern room, with high ceilings, wide aisles and a large backstage, and it has favored big musicals.

The Marquis opens on July 9 with concerts by Shirley Bassey, the year the Marriott Marquis hotel arrives. Me and My Girl is among its first musicals.
