Ticket buyers will also be given the chance to enter the Official Broadway Week Sweepstakes, powered by Audience Rewards, for the opportunity to win dinner at Mastro’s and tickets to a Broadway show of their choice for the winner and five friends.

"We are delighted to once again provide visitors and New Yorkers with one of the best incentives to enjoy Tony-Award winning shows, see the biggest stars perform and experience the energy and excitement of Broadway,” said Fred Dixon, president and CEO of NYC & Company, in a press statement.

Launched in 2011, Broadway Week was designed to increase ticket sales during typically slower periods of attendance during the winter and fall seasons. The promotion has cumulatively sold nearly 630,000 tickets, generating approximately $41.7 million in revenue for Broadway as of summer 2015.

Broadway Week is produced by NYC & Company in partnership with American Express, Amtrak, Audience Rewards, The Broadway League, NBC 4 New York, New York City Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, Telecharge, and Ticketmaster and with support from AARP New York.
