Frequently Asked Questions

When/where can I buy $20 tickets?

All Carnegie Hall presentations (excluding galas and Weill Music Institute events) are eligible for $20 ticket offers. Tickets are available for each month’s concerts beginning on the first day of that month at 11 AM (noon on Sunday). Tickets for concerts taking place in October, for example, go on sale October 1.

  • Online: Sign in to your carnegiehall.org account and enter promo code NTB50400 when purchasing tickets.
  • In Person: Visit the Box Office and mention your Notables membership.
  • By Phone: Call us at 212-247-7800 and mention your Notables membership.

What seats are eligible?

Seat locations vary by concert and on a daily basis, but most sections will be available in all three halls. Inventory is limited per section. Seats in the Blavatnik Family First Tier and Prime Parquet sections in Stern Auditorium / Perelman Stage are not eligible for this program. Please note this offer is based on open-seat inventory and some concerts may sell out at full price before the concert month begins.

Can I combine with another discount?

Discounts cannot be combined with any other offer, are subject to availability and prior sale, and are not valid on prior purchases. Discounts are available for Carnegie Hall–presented events only, and may be discontinued at any time. Some limitations may apply.

Why did the Notables Prelude program end? Where can I find discounted tickets?

To ensure that Carnegie Hall’s membership programs remain sustainable and aligned with our mission, we have made thoughtful changes to strengthen support for our artistic and education initiatives. As part of this effort, the Notables Prelude program was discontinued in early 2025, allowing us to focus resources on programs that more effectively serve our community.

We hope Prelude members will continue their involvement by upgrading to a Notables Supporter membership, which offers enhanced benefits that include invitations to exclusive events, selected complimentary tickets, and access to $20 discounted concert tickets.

For additional discounted ticket options, you may consider the following:

  • Discounted tickets: available for students, groups, military personnel, first responders, and nonprofit professionals
  • Friends membership: starting at $100 annually, with benefits that include half-price ticket offers and more

To ease this transition, current Prelude members will continue to enjoy the $20 discounted ticket benefit for a three-month grace period after their membership ends. After this period, the benefit will no longer be available.
