An Interactive Tracker of Broadway Closing Dates

Collage of seven Playbills held up inside Broadway theatres: Are You Now or Have You Ever Been, Ragtime, Oh Mary!, The Lost Boys, The Book of Mormon, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, and Aladdin.

Broadway closing dates will not sit still. Cats: The Jellicle Ball was booked into January and closed August 8. Titaníque was supposed to be gone in July and now runs through September 20. The Gazillion Bubble Show announced a final performance after 19 years, then changed its mind and extended into 2027 so it could celebrate its 20th anniversary instead.

So, I built a tracker.

It is one page: every Broadway show plus the Off-Broadway runs worth planning a trip around, roughly 70 productions at any given time. Each card shows the date that matters. A white date is an announced final performance, with a countdown that recalculates every time you open the page. A green date means the run is open-ended, and what you see is how far out tickets are on sale. That green date is a floor, not a closing; long runners like Hamilton and Wicked roll their booking windows forward every few weeks.

Shows that run a digital lottery or day-of rush are badged, and you can search by show, venue, or actor. Every date links to its source, so you can check my work before you buy anything. If you want to actually play those lotteries, here is how we saw 31 Broadway shows for about $47 a ticket.

I refresh it weekly, and each date gets verified against the show’s own site or its ticketing platform before it changes. The snapshot date at the top tells you how fresh the data is.
