Lincoln Center Announces '30 Days for $30' Lottery for Classical, Jazz and Dance Performances

Lincoln Center announced today "30 Days for $30," a new initiative offering greater access to performances for 30 days between February 1 and March 4, 2017. Via an online lottery hosted by Jujamcyn Theaters, Lincoln Center and many of its resident organizations will make prime seats available for only $30 to a wide swath of productions across the campus.

Program partners include The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, Jazz at Lincoln Center, The Juilliard School, Lincoln Center's Great Performers and American Songbook, New York City Ballet, and the New York Philharmonic.

Jujamcyn Theaters, in partnership with The John Gore Organization, have created the digital lottery software and a landing page where all offers will be listed beginning on January 27, 2017. Potential audience members can enter the lottery for as many performances and events as they wish at LincolnCenter.org/30for30, and will be notified within 48 hours of any given performance if they have won access to the $30 tickets.

"Part of Lincoln Center's mission is to make the arts available and accessible to anyone and everyone," said Peter Duffin, Senior Vice President of Brand and Marketing at Lincoln Center. "30 Days for $30 offers a terrific bargain on tickets for the culturally curious. Our hope is that people take advantage of this special opportunity by sampling a variety of events across campus and perhaps even trying out performances in a genre that might be new to them."

Some of the offers will include:

The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center: The Shanghai Quartet; Performances of Mendelssohn, Beethoven, Chopin, and more

Jazz at Lincoln Center: Dianne Reeves; Dave Douglas Metamorphosis

The Juilliard School: Handel's Agrippina; Juilliard Orchestra Vocal Arts Concert ($30 offer is for a pair of tickets)

Lincoln Center has become a leading force in using new media and technology to reach and inspire a wider and global audience. Reaching audiences where they are-physically and digitally-has become a cornerstone of making the performing arts more accessible to New Yorkers and beyond. The reimagination of David Geffen Hall will play an important part in these efforts.

Lincoln Center is committed to providing and improving accessibility for people with disabilities. For information, call the Department of Programs and Services for People with Disabilities at 212.875.5375.
