Here's how to get $10 tickets to Toronto's highly anticipated Hamilton performances

In October, Hamilton broke records in Toronto, months before its Canadian debut. At its peak sale time, about 30,000 theatre fans were on Mirvish’s website trying to snag tickets to the hottest show this year.

And for fans still looking, David Mirvish announced it will be selling $10 tickets to the popular theatrical performance through a digital lottery.

Yes, that is correct. While regular price ticket prices range from $50 to $275, these select tickets will cost you only $10.

According to Mirvish, 40 tickets will be sold for every performance for $10 each, and the digital lottery will open at 11:00 am on February 9 for tickets to the Tuesday, February 11 performance.

“Subsequent digital lotteries will begin two days prior to each performance,” they added.

In the fall, Karastamatis told Daily Hive that on Saturday, October 26, the show sold more than 44,000 pre-sale tickets, compared to the previous record which was 13,000 sold in one day.
