Weekday Rush Tickets
For the fifth season in a row, thanks to a generous gift from The Agnes Varis Trust, 200 orchestra seats are available for each regular Monday through Thursday performance for only $20 (excluding galas, special events, and opening nights of new productions). Fifty of these tickets are set aside for senior citizens.
General Public: You can purchase Varis Rush Tickets at the Met box office beginning two hours before curtain, subject to availability.
Senior Weekday Rush Tickets
Instead of standing in line, senior citizens (65 and over) can reserve their tickets beginning at 10 am on the day of performance online, or by calling 212-362-6000. This offer is restricted to two per order, and proof of age is required when tickets are picked up at the box office.
Note: if there is not a “Buy Tickets” button visible below, no Varis Senior Rush tickets are currently available for that evening’s performance.
