NYC Broadway Theatres

Official Broadway theatre venues located in New York City.
In New York City, Broadway theatres refer to the large professional venues clustered around Times Square and Midtown Manhattan where the biggest musicals and plays are staged. These are the stages behind the shows people travel to see—the core of Broadway as the top tier of commercial theatre in the United States.

A theatre is considered “Broadway” based on its Manhattan location, seating capacity (typically 500+ seats), and industry standards. Many venues are historic and have hosted iconic productions. This page is an independent, alphabetical guide to active Broadway theatres and what’s currently playing.
