Masquerade will host Bal Lumière, a post-performance New Year’s Eve soirée that will open the show’s Paris Opera House environment to attendees for a late-night masked gathering. Following the December 31 performance, guests will experience additional performances, DJs, and an open bar.
Tickets for Bal Lumière are now available at masqueradenyc.com/nye, with options that include either the show and the soirée or a full evening beginning with a pre-show dinner at Paris Bar. Formal or cocktail attire in black, silver, or white is requested, and Masquerade masks will be required.
Masquerade is currently running at 218 West 57th Street, with tickets available through March 29, 2026.
Patrons may purchase up to two same-day tickets through the TodayTix app. The Black Tie Standby Line will also offer a limited number of $170 tickets for each performance, subject to availability. Proper attire is required to join the in-person standby line, which operates first-come, first-served.
Masquerade brings audiences into the world of The Phantom of the Opera, moving from the masked ball to backstage areas and the subterranean lair beneath the Opéra Populaire. The production features a chandelier containing over 30,000 crystals provided by Preciosa, the Official Crystal Partner of Masquerade. M.A.C. Cosmetics serves as the show’s Official Makeup Partner.
