An intimate venue without a bad seat ! It is showing a little bit of wear and tear, but that’s part of the charm. Waiting for a drink is less than charming and you can’t take it to your seat.

Nicole Serratore

Excellent design acoustics mean you can hear clearly from any point in this theater . Great for concerts and comedy .

Brian McFadden

Maybe the orchestra section has nicer seats—as a 6'1", 190 lb. man, I've never had better seats in a traditional music hall.

3/25/17: Saw The Zombies from Row J (R Orchestra). Not a bad view but sound wasn't great there (possibly from band's equipment). Saw Wilco & The Monkees here too. Uncomfortably hot during all shows!

Christina Chin

Pretty decent view from even the balcony . I like smaller venue spaces. But old theater so no leg room. Loge seats prob the best if u can afford and get. Gets hot on balcony level

Sara ????⚔????

A great venue! Decently sized and good views from most seats. Lots of interesting events and concerts .

Tall People, be warned: the National Landmark seems to have been designed for the tinier folk of the 1920s and the seats are tiny, so be prepared to be a little uncomfortable. Read more

James Rios

Really a nice concert venue . "Not a bad seat in the house". Look out for the pricey cup needed to drink at your seat.

Greg Bauer

Town Hall is a historic venue with a wonderful perspective from every seat!

Sherpa Concerts

Town Hall is the best venue to see the Community Service Variety Show brought to you by the Trailer Park Boys! Ricky, Julian, and Bubbles would love to see you there on 5/10! Read more

Nate Slevin

Love this venue but they need to get with the times. They refuse to scan Ticketfast tickets from a phone screen and instead charge $5 to print them at their box office . Get with it, Town Hall !

Charles Ferran

Wonderful place, very intimate , with lots of history

drew tarvin

I saw TJ & Dave here and it was great as usual. If you get the chance to check them out, take it!

Deena Berger

Remember to bring your cup back for discounts on drinks ????????

Paddy

Nice theatre . Fairly steep seating but pretty good views from everywhere.

eric bornemann

Great concert venue with lots of cool events .

Paulette Osborne

There's really not a bad seat . Very intimate theater .

StageBuddy

Did you know The Town Hall opened in 1921? Its long history makes it a perfect spot for the "Broadway Musicals of 1937" show.

Jenn Schwartz

Lovely little intimate venue . Go if you get the chance.

Todd Hamilton

Good venue to see bands in the city , though I still think Irving Plaza is a better more fun vibe.

Chris Phillips

Great views in a well kept up space. My balcony seat was very small.

Pat Dwyer

Yes, she’s singing #kathleenturner #cabaret #LivePerformance #Singing #LiveMusic

Historic NYC venue. Great acoustics .

Nicole Serratore

Check out the fascinating old Town Hall posters throughout the loge area.

Karina O.

Seats tight. Tall people sit in the first row, where you can stretch your legs

John M

The views are good in the balcony , but what is this, a theater for ants ?! All the seats were sized for six year olds.

Antoinette

Theres a bar but apparently you have to have your drink in the stairwell because you're not allowed to drink in the theatre

stephen mathura

Seats are a little old but the acoustics are great!

Kathryn D

Good venue and performances . Bottleneck for security is annoying.

Silvie Senauke

Saw a great show but the seats are not comfortable , or roomy

Diane Schubach

Great venue! Works for any kind of presentation.

Jacob Shemkovitz

"America's Town Meetings of the Air" radio programs from here in the 1930s created public-affairs media

Kevin Grant

There’s a bar upstairs, don’t wait in line near the front door!

ZenFoodster

A great venue but a the bar is a total ripoff: a bottle of water costs $5!

Charlottes

It's a great venue with terribly expensive run of the mill drinks

Christian Borges

Amazing acoustics

Craig Chu

Good performance space

william veronda

The theater now scans E tickets.

Caitlin Williams

Poor showing in serving disabled patrons. We bought 7 tix for a concert and indicted that we needed wheelchair accommodation. When we arrived, my uncle was forced to sit by himself. Not impressed.

Maria Razgui

Close to Grand Central and Times Square. Tiny seats, show late abt 30 mins, not even a bottle of water allowed upstairs.. :/

Abbie White

Not impressed, when booking with a group and needing wheelchair accomodations, my uncle was forced to sit by himself across the venue. Smarten up people.
