Why are jersey boys tickets so hard to find for NYC Broadway?

Question

me and my mom are going to go see Jersey boys in december. my mom decided that since Christmas is in December that we should go the 1st week, i was thinking December 6th, since she doesn't want to go on a sunday. i live in NYC, so she is just coming up to visit for that week. i really want to go see jersey boys with her. I'm looking on all the major ticket sites (ticketmaster, telecharge, etc.) and they are saying that all the tickets are sold out for that performance. how in the world can they already sold out when its 4 months away?! i do not understand. i read all the reviews for the show, some are good and some are bad. a lot of them do not recommend going to the show because of profanity, but i think they are talking about young children seeing the show. why in the world are these tickets so hard to get? is the show so amazing that even people from other countries are coming over just to see the show? i dont get it. i have seen many many shows, and yes the tickets are hard to get, but not as hard as this show! does anybody know why? thanks.

Answer 1

That is kind of strange actually< it is probably just because everyone is going to be in for the holidays, Deccember is NYs busiest month after all. Id still try stubnub.com and if you are really set for going on the date i would check out the box office about 2 or 3 hours before the show, see if anyone canceled there tickets or if there is any openings and go eat dinner and come back. also look into on stage seating, they might have a seat or two open, just ask the box office

good luck<33  

Answer 2

Because they are so popular, anytime you can't get any tickets from almost anywhere, that's the only reason I can come up with, they are so popular.  I did a little research under wikipedia for the jersey boys and this is what I found now you can continue from here and I think you should be able to find some tickets, but maybe not directly in NYC maybe in Jersey.

Answer 3

I've been trying ever since the day it came out. Its so popular that at times it can be sold out up to 6 months in advance. Its the hottest ticket in town. And I live in New Jersey, so forget about finding tickets here, its not happening. Even if and when you do score tickets your going to paying at least $100.00 a ticket. Your going to have to wait until February to find tickets, which is the earliest that I've found tickets for.
