How To Win $10 Tickets To See 'Hamilton'

HOLLYWOOD, CA — It's not too late to score a seat to "Hamilton's" opening week in Los Angeles. Before the award-winning musical touches down in L.A. for the second time, a digital lottery will be held giving fans the chance to win a $10 ticket.

The lottery will open at 10 a.m. Friday and will close at noon on August 12, for performances from August 17-22. Subsequent lotteries for the following weeks will also run from 10 a.m. Fridays until noon on Thursday, with 40 tickets available for each show.

Both winners and non-winners will be notified between noon and 4p.m. every Thursday via email and phone push notifications. Winners will have one hour to claim and pay for their tickets, and each winner can buy up to two tickets.

To enter the lottery, use the official app for "Hamilton," now available for all iOS and Android devices in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store (http://hamiltonmusical.com/app). You can also visit http://hamiltonmusical.com/lot... to register.

Only one entry per person, per performance, will be allowed. Repeat entries and disposable email addresses will be discarded. Lottery tickets can be picked up at will call two hours before the performance with valid photo ID, and will be void if resold.

Last week, owners of the Hollywood Pantages Theatre announced guests for all shows, including "Hamilton," must be vaccinated against the coronavirus to enter the building. The policy will be in affect through at least October 10, and will be re-assessed on an ongoing basis.

Guests under age 12, those who need a reasonable accommodation for medical reasons or those who are unvaccinated due to a "sincerely held religious belief" must provide proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR test taken within 72 hours prior to entering the theatre. Children under 5 will not be admitted to the theatre, Broadway in Hollywood said.

Masks will also be required for all ticket holders, the company said. Masks must be worn at all times except while actively eating or drinking in designated areas.

'Hamilton' made its Los Angeles debut at the Pantages in 2017 as part of a national tour that also appeared in cities such as San Francisco, California, and Seattle, Washington.
