Minskoff Theatre Venue Information

Situated on the third floor of One Astor Plaza, the Minskoff Theatre offers stunning views of Times Square from its glass-walled grand foyer. Designed by architects Kahn and Jacobs, with contributions from Der Scutt and Ben Schlanger, the theater was one of the first constructed under the 1967 Special Theater District amendment, which allowed developers additional floor area in exchange for building theaters. The venue’s modern design features gold-leaf tableaus, terrazzo flooring, and a continental seating layout without a center aisle, maximizing stage visibility.

The theater is fully wheelchair-accessible, with designated seating in the Orchestra and Mezzanine levels, accessible restrooms, and a dedicated elevator for guests with disabilities. The Minskoff has hosted a range of productions, from musicals like Irene (1973) and Sunset Boulevard (1994) to concerts and events like the Tony Awards. Since 2006, The Lion King has been its flagship production, celebrated for its breathtaking visuals, puppetry, and music by Elton John and Tim Rice. The theater is air-conditioned year-round, and amenities include bars on both the Orchestra and Mezzanine levels serving drinks, snacks, and candy. Outside food and beverages are not permitted, except for medical necessities.

The Minskoff is easily accessible via public transportation, with the 42nd Street-Times Square subway stop (1, 2, 3, 7, N, Q, R, W, S lines) and the 7th Ave/W. 44th St. bus stop (M104 line) nearby. Rideshare drop-off points are located at the curb outside the theater, and parking is available in the One Astor Plaza building with entrances on 44th and 45th Streets. Doors typically open 30–60 minutes before performances, allowing time to enjoy the lobby’s ambiance or purchase refreshments.

Minskoff Theatre Seating Chart

The Minskoff Theatre has a capacity of approximately 1,710 seats across two levels: the Orchestra (1,099 seats) and the Mezzanine (593–640 seats, depending on configuration). Below is a breakdown of the seating options available.

Orchestra

All seating at the Minskoff Theatre is reserved, ensuring guests have assigned seats for The Lion King. The Orchestra level, located at stage level, is divided into three subsections: Left Orchestra (rows A–ZZZ, odd-numbered seats 1–15), Center Orchestra (rows A–ZZZ, skipping row I due to theater superstitions), and Right Orchestra (rows A–ZZZ, even-numbered seats). The Center Orchestra offers the best views, particularly rows C–M, with unobstructed sightlines and excellent acoustics. Side Orchestra seats provide good views at a lower cost, though extreme side seats may have slightly restricted views of stage edges. The Orchestra is ideal for those wanting to be close to the action, with rows A–B being very close but potentially missing some side-stage elements.

Mezzanine

The Mezzanine, elevated above the Orchestra, spans rows A–L, with seats numbered 101–156 from left to right. The Front Mezzanine (rows A–C, seats 119–129) offers sweeping views of the stage, often preferred for its elevated perspective and clarity. Center Mezzanine seats in rows A–F are highly sought after for their balance of view and value, while rear and side Mezzanine seats are more budget-friendly but may have muffled sound or distant views. The theater’s continental seating layout means rows can have up to 52 seats, with egresses at the ends. Accessibility seating is available in both sections, with wheelchair and companion seats in the rear Orchestra and Mezzanine, accessible via a designated elevator.

VIP Packages

While standard VIP packages are not always explicitly advertised, the Minskoff Theatre offers premium seating options that function as VIP experiences. These include Center Orchestra seats in rows C–P and Front Mezzanine seats in rows A–D, which provide the best views and acoustics and are priced at a premium (up to $1719.59 depending on demand). Some ticket platforms, like Ticketmaster or Broadway.com, may offer VIP tickets with perks such as priority access, better views, or exclusive amenities, though availability varies by performance. Check with authorized sellers for specific VIP offerings, which may include backstage access or meet-and-greet opportunities when available.

Minskoff Theatre Ticket Types

The Minskoff Theatre offers various ticket types for The Lion King, tailored to different preferences and budgets. Below is a breakdown of available options.

Theatre Tickets

Seating Tickets

Seating tickets refer to the reserved seats in the Orchestra and Mezzanine levels, as described in the seating options section. These are the standard tickets for The Lion King, with prices varying by location: Center Orchestra seats (rows C–M) are the most expensive, followed by Front Mezzanine (rows A–F), while Rear Orchestra, Side Orchestra, and Rear Mezzanine offer more affordable options. Prices range from $109.71 to $1719.59, with central seats commanding higher prices due to optimal views.

General Admission

The Minskoff Theatre does not offer general admission tickets, as all performances require assigned seating to maintain order and ensure a premium Broadway experience.

Resale Tickets

Resale tickets are available through secondary marketplaces like Ticket Squeeze, Vivid Seats, TicketSmarter, and Box Office Ticket Sales. These tickets are sold by individuals or brokers and may be priced above or below face value based on demand.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Parking Included in the Ticket?

Yes, parking is available on-site at the One Astor Plaza building, with entrances on 44th and 45th Streets. However, parking is not included in the ticket price and must be paid for separately. It’s recommended to use ParkWhiz to reserve a spot in advance, as parking in Times Square can be limited and expensive. Arriving early (60–90 minutes before the show) allows time to secure parking and reach the theater.

Where Are the Best Seats at the Minskoff Theatre?

The best seats depend on your preferences and budget. For the closest and most immersive experience, Center Orchestra seats in rows C–M offer unobstructed views and excellent sound, making them the most sought-after (and expensive). For an elevated perspective with sweeping views, Front Mezzanine seats in rows A–D (especially seats 119–129) are highly recommended, balancing quality and value. Aisle seats in the Orchestra (Left or Right) are also popular, especially for The Lion King, as performers use the aisles during the opening number, enhancing the experience. Avoid rows A–B in the Orchestra, as they may be too close, and the back rows of the Mezzanine, where sound can be muffled. Check interactive seating charts on Ticketmaster, Vivid Seats, or SeatPlan for real-time seat views and reviews.

Are There Any Age Restrictions?

Yes, The Lion King at the Minskoff Theatre is recommended for ages 6 and up. Children under 2 years old are not permitted in the theater, and all guests, regardless of age, must have a ticket. Booster seats are available in limited quantities for younger patrons. The show runs approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes with a brief intermission, so consider this when attending with children.
