The Broadway League is bringing back the Broadway Bridges program that allows high school sophomores the opportunity to attend one of the many Broadway shows for just $10!
The program is open to public high school students across all five of the boroughs – Manhattan, Bronx, Brooklyn, Staten Island, and Queens. The goal of the program is to ensure every high school student in the New York City area has an opportunity to see at least one Broadway production before they graduate from high school.
The Broadway Bridges program launched in 2017 and has serviced over 160,000 students.
A national Broadway Bridges program was launched in 2024.

Broadway League President Jason Laks spoke on the program via statement saying, “by offering tickets to students across New York City public schools, Broadway Bridges makes it possible for thousands of young people to experience Broadway as part of their education. The scale of this spring’s participation reflects the commitment of productions, educators, and public partners to ensuring Broadway is accessible to the next generation.”
United Federation of Teachers President Michael Mulgrew added, “for so many of our students, this is their first exposure to the thrill of Broadway. We know it opens their eyes to the possibility of careers in the arts. We deeply appreciate our partnership with The Broadway League and the city’s Department of Education for making this magic happen.”
