Shop Tickets to Broadway and Off-Broadway Musicals, Shows and Theater Performances on Tixbroadway

1. Resale & Secondary Markets Resellers allow fans who bought tickets earlier to resell them — often at a markup, but sometimes cheaper last-minute. Scalpers or professional resellers buy tickets in bulk early and list them later when demand is higher.

2. Venue Holds & VIP Allotments Venues, promoters, or artists hold back blocks of tickets for sponsors, media, friends/family, VIPs, etc. These hold tickets may be released to the public closer to the event date if they’re unused.

3. Credit Card & Fan Club Presale Releases Tickets allocated for presales (like Amex or fan club access) may not sell out and get released into general inventory later.

4. Production Holds (especially theater & concerts) Some seats are held until the final stage setup is confirmed — especially for shows with large equipment or obstructed views. These are released once logistics are finalized.

5. Returned Tickets Canceled transactions, declined payments, or group sales that fall through can free up tickets.

6. Standing Room & Rush Tickets Some venues offer standing room only or day-of rush tickets for a lower price — common in Broadway theater.

 

Here’s how ticket availability works on TicketNetwork, even for sold-out events:

TicketNetwork (Affiliate-Based Marketplace) TicketNetwork operates as a B2B ticket exchange — it's a backend platform that powers sites like TixBroadway.com and TIXpick.com..

 

How tickets appear: Resellers (brokers or individuals) list tickets on TicketNetwork. These listings sync across partner websites (like TIXpick or TixBroadway) using TicketNetwork widgets or APIs. Even if the original event is sold out, TicketNetwork shows resale inventory from multiple brokers nationwide.

Notable features: 100% Guarantee (valid tickets or full refund).

Affiliate model: Partner sites like TixBroadway earn a modest commission when visitors purchase tickets.
