Season ticket packages for the six-show Subscription Series package are still available and may be purchased online at broadwaygrandrapids.com/subscribe or by calling toll-free 1-866-928-7469.

Single tickets are not yet on sale to the general public.

Broadway Grand Rapids continues to work diligently to navigate the challenges of scheduling touring Broadway shows as guided by medical and public health officials and local government regulations and is prepared to make any necessary adjustments for the well-being of audiences, staff, cast and crew. The touring industry depends on an interconnected network of presenters in cities throughout the country and requires months of preparation. Much of the production process, such as casting, building sets and costumes, and rehearsing, cannot begin until it is safe to work.

The Broadway Grand Rapids subscription series is sponsored by Fifth Third Bank and in partnership with Broadway Across America. All performances will be presented at DeVos Performance Hall in downtown Grand Rapids.

During the next few months, DeVos Performance Hall will undergo some exciting renovations. A new fly rail will replace the current system, which was installed during the theater’s 1980 construction. A fly rail is a rigging system used to support scenery or curtains and create special effects. The new fly rail will benefit touring events and local productions, allowing for a more seamless experience throughout the performance and during the load-in and load-out process. Additionally, cosmetic upgrades are being initiated at DeVos Performance Hall during this time as part of continued efforts to create a fresh and welcoming environment for guests to enjoy.

Broadway Grand Rapids was established in September of 1988, with a mission to present the very best of national touring Broadway productions in West Michigan. The Broadway series, sponsored by Fifth Third Bank, provides opportunities to educate, entertain and engage audiences. In 2019, Broadway Grand Rapids entered into a partnership agreement with Broadway Across America. This partnership enhances the opportunity to bring the hottest new productions from Broadway to Grand Rapids. All Broadway Grand Rapids presentations take place in DeVos Performance Hall located conveniently in downtown Grand Rapids. For more information about events visit www.broadwaygrandrapids.com

Led by 14-time Tony-winning theater producer John Gore (Owner & CEO), BAA is the foremost presenter of first-class touring productions in North America, operating in 47 markets with over 400,000 subscribers.
