Services · Website development · Ticket booking websites

Ticket websites for New York stages, halls and museums, built to Article 25.

Codeeo provides ticket booking website development New York producers, theaters, concert halls, museums, comedy clubs and promoters rely on as their official source. We build show and exhibition pages, performance calendars, rush and lottery information, group sales routes and the link into your ticketing system, with the total ticket cost shown in each listing before a buyer selects anything, as New York's Arts and Cultural Affairs Law requires.

New York audiences have more choice on any given night than almost anywhere, and resellers bid for the same searches you do. An official site that is fast, accurate and easy to buy from is how a production keeps its buyers, and their data, for itself.

Built for
Broadway and Off-Broadway producers, nonprofit theaters, concert halls, music venues, comedy clubs, museums, observation attractions and promoters across the five boroughs and New York State.

What the site does

The pages and connections a New York ticket website needs.

In New York, the official website for a show or venue competes with resellers, discount booths, aggregator listings and social posts, all quoting different prices for the same seats. The job of your website is to be the source buyers trust: the right performance schedule, the real total, the cast or lineup tonight, and a direct route into your ticketing system that does not pass through a marked-up resale listing.

We also build for the way New Yorkers and visitors move: by subway, on foot and from hotel rooms in Midtown, with phones in hand and little patience for slow pages. The capabilities below are scoped per project; a single Off-Broadway run needs a different set from a multi-hall institution in Lincoln Square. Every capability is connected to the ticketing system you already have; we do not ask you to change box office providers to get a better website.

Explain your project
  • Total cost shown in every listing

    Section 25.07 of the Arts and Cultural Affairs Law, as amended in 2022, requires the total ticket cost including fees to appear in the listing before a ticket is selected, and that price cannot rise during the purchase. We build calendars and seat previews that read the total from your ticketing system, so the website never shows a lower figure than checkout.

    The website follows the state's display rule on every page.

  • Performance calendar with cast and schedule notes

    Eight-show weeks, dark Mondays, holiday schedules, understudy notices and limited engagement end dates sit in one calendar your company manager can update. Each performance shows availability from your ticketing feed and links straight to the correct seat map.

    Schedule changes reach buyers the moment they are made.

  • Rush, lottery and discount program pages

    Clear pages explaining digital lottery entry, student rush, standing room and any partner discounts you run, with eligibility, timing and links to the right platform. Ticket booking website design in New York has to make these programs easy to find without letting them undercut full-price sales.

    Discount buyers know the rules before they line up.

  • Official source signals against resale confusion

    Organization and event structured data, verified social links, a plain statement of the only authorized sellers, and resale guidance that reflects what the law allows. Under New York law, ticket resellers must be licensed by the Department of State, and we can explain that to buyers in neutral terms on an official FAQ.

    Buyers can tell your site from a lookalike.

  • Group, school and corporate sales

    A separate route for groups, school bookings and corporate entertaining, with an enquiry form that captures date range, headcount and accessibility needs and routes to your group sales desk. Education pages can carry study guides and teacher resources without mixing them into public ticket pages.

    High-value group enquiries reach a named person quickly.

  • Getting there by subway, bus and foot

    Venue pages list nearby subway lines and stations, walking directions from major transit hubs, accessible station options and pre-show dining nearby if you choose. For venues in Brooklyn, Queens or the Bronx, we write directions that assume the visitor is coming from Manhattan.

    Out-of-town buyers arrive on time and at the right door.

  • Pages in the languages your audience reads

    New York audiences include visitors from across the world and residents who read Spanish, Chinese and many other languages. We translate the pages that matter most, with proper hreflang tags, and keep show facts in one source so translations never drift from the schedule.

    Visitors who read another language still buy from you.

  • SHIELD Act data security

    New York's SHIELD Act expects businesses holding New York residents' private information to keep reasonable safeguards and to notify people after a breach. We minimize what forms collect, keep payment data inside your ticketing provider, restrict admin access by role and log changes.

    Less personal data held, and what is held is protected.

  • Fast pages for crowded networks

    Show pages load quickly on a phone in a subway station or a busy Times Square block. We set image and script budgets, cache aggressively and test Core Web Vitals on mid-range devices before launch and after each major content change.

    Buyers reach the seat map before their train does.

  • Accessible seating and access programs

    WCAG 2.2 AA design and testing, plus clear content on wheelchair locations, assistive listening, captioned and audio described performances, and how to request them. ADA rules require accessible seats to be offered on the same terms as others, so we check the hand-off keeps those options visible.

    Access information is as easy to find as the seat map.

Who this is for

Four New York starting points we see most.

A New York ticket website is shaped by the kind of operator behind it. A commercial production lives and dies by its run, a nonprofit theater sells seasons and memberships, a music venue announces shows weekly and a museum sells time slots. Here is how the first release differs for each.

01

A commercial Broadway or Off-Broadway production

Your website launches with the announcement, carries previews and opening, and must respond within the hour to reviews, cast news and extensions. We build a show site your press and marketing agencies can update without a developer, with the total price in every listing, rush and lottery pages, and group sales routing. When the run extends, new dates go live from the CMS rather than a ticket to the developer.

Built to stay accurate through every extension and cast change.

02

A nonprofit theater or concert hall

Subscriptions, memberships, donations and single tickets all compete for space. We design season pages that make subscribing simple, connect member benefits to your ticketing and donor system, and keep education and community programs visible without crowding the box office path. Several halls or stages under one roof get one shared calendar with clear venue labels. Gala, benefit and education pages are templated so development staff can publish them quickly.

03

A music venue or comedy club in Brooklyn, Queens or Manhattan

Shows announce fast and sell faster. We give you a quick show editor, artist pages, age policy labels, presale signups held in your own list and a calendar that removes past nights automatically. Late shows and early shows on the same night are shown as separate events so nobody buys for the wrong set. Drink minimums, door policies and seating rules for comedy rooms are stated on each event, so the bar staff do not have to explain them at the door.

04

A museum, observation deck or attraction

Time slot availability, member entry, special exhibitions and combination tickets need to be understood in seconds by tourists who may not speak English first. We build exhibition and visit pages with clear inclusions, time slot previews from your system, and visit-planning content for families and groups. Weather and closure notices can be posted site-wide from one setting. Combination ticket pages explain exactly which entries are included and which time slot each one needs.

Designed for first-time visitors reading on a phone.

Technology

What we build this with.

Stack choices follow your ticketing provider and the people who edit the site. We often use a headless CMS with Next.js for speed, or WordPress where your team already works, connected to ticketing, CRM, donor and email systems. Hosting is set up with a content delivery network so announcement day traffic spikes do not take the site down.

New York ticket website questions, answered.

The total cost, including fees, shown in the listing before selection.

Since June 2022, Section 25.07 of the Arts and Cultural Affairs Law has required operators and sellers to disclose the total ticket cost, with ancillary fees, before a ticket is selected, and the price may not increase during the purchase. The federal FTC fee rule adds a national version of the same idea. We build listings, calendars and seat previews so the total from your ticketing system is the first price anyone sees.
