How do you purchase Bolshoi Ballet tickets at a great price?

I am planning on bringing my group of 24 adults to Moscow in November and I understand that the Bolshoi Ballet tickets are expensive. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get the best price on the tickets?

Your best price will of course be at the box office but for a large number of people you would most likely want to get tickets in advance. Try looking online for booking agents.

For 2 - 4 people on short notice we have even been surprisingly lucky on a couple of occasions buying tickets from street vendors near the theatre. If you do that ask the seller to accompany you (before paying) to the box office to verify that the tickets are legitimate. They will be glad to do that if tickets are genuine.

Have a great visit!

Hi, ptadin,

The Bolshoi sells tickets online. You register, pay by a credit card, print our your purchase certificate and collect the tocket on the eve of the show.

Prices on the website of Bolshoi are the basic ones, booking via anyone else you will pay the booking fee plus any other charge, which the online agency is imposing.

Bolshoi tickets are not the most expensive and for some long-running shows they are really cheap. They become expensive only in case of visiting performances or international stars.

Enjoy your visit
