Things to Do in NYC: Broadway

Broadway is the iconic theater district in NYC. It is home to several amazing shows including The Book of Mormon, Lion King, and Andrew Lloyd Webbers’ The Phantom of the Opera, Broadway’s longest-running show, which recently surpassed the 10,000 performance mark. The lights on Broadway were dim for 18 months, but they are back in full force. Before hurrying out to catch your favorite show, it’s important to plan ahead. Here’s what to know about your trip to Broadway.

Planning for Tickets

It’s essential to book your tickets ahead of time to ensure they don’t sell out on the day you wish to attend, especially since they are selling like hotcakes. There are plenty of ways to find tickets, including online and in-person if you know where to go. Remember to consider what you want to see and who you’ll be attending with. For example, Aladdin is a great experience for kids, and so is The Lion King. If you want to spend some adult time, consider tickets to Moulin Rouge, Wicked, or Hamilton (yes, Hamilton is still very hot). To save some money, opt for a matinee showing.

Planning for Parking

Getting around NYC and finding parking can be a major headache. However, resources like our IconGO app are a big hit with Broadway aficionados. The IconGO app makes parking easy to find, affordable, and a whole lot less stressful. We have all been waiting a long time to go out and about again. Do not let parking worries keep you from really enjoying the city. The IconGO app will help you take care of the parking.

Planning for Food

There are many options for food around the Broadway area. Before or after your show at the theater, head over to Taladwat for some Thai, or Peter Lugers Steakhouse for a slab of steak and amazing sides. On a budget? That’s okay. There are plenty of places to grab a quick bite to eat. Street vendors have carts full of legendary NYC dogs that are cooked to perfection. Grab a soft pretzel, a dog, and a drink and step over to the side and do some people watching while you wait for your show.

Broadway has something for everyone. The whole family, young and old, can enjoy some time at Broadway. The NYC parking app will help to eliminate the stresses associated with parking in NYC so you can fully enjoy your experience. Stroll through the theater district and just experience NYC at its finest and enjoy some great food. Your day at Broadway is sure to be one to remember!
