Our goal is to continue exploring new ticketing practices together as a community to make our performances more accessible to more people and to center equity and inclusion in every aspect of our field. The majority of  Lincoln Center Presents programs are FREE or Choose-What-You-Pay. Please refer to the dedicated event page of the show you’d like to attend to confirm ticketing options.

Free General Admission Events

Many performances and events, including all programming at the David Rubenstein Atrium, are available for FREE via General Admission—first-come, first-served. Advance reservations are not required for these events; just show up! While we'll do our best to accommodate as many guests as possible, we cannot guarantee admission. Look for the “FREE” label on calendar listings and show pages, or select the “Free” calendar filter to search for a wide range of free programming.

Free Fast Track Option

All Lincoln Center Presents events at the David Rubenstein Atrium offer a Fast Track reservation option, giving priority entry into events. Reservations for Fast Track will open every Monday at noon for that week's events and can be reserved on this page. While event admission is not guaranteed, Fast Track reservation holders will have priority over the General Admission line up until 30 minutes before show time. We recommend arriving an hour before show time to ensure entry into the event. Please check the event's dedicated web page to confirm if Fast Track is available for the performance you'd like to attend.
