The first desires of New York escape usually appear with the approach of the long spring weekends. Yet it’s in winter – January and February, especially – that travel can cost the least. And that’s especially true this year.

Indeed, this winter, three promotions are offered simultaneously from January 21 to February 10.

The NYC Broadway Week promotion allows you to enjoy a two-for-one package on select Broadway shows, including The Book of Mormon, Come from Away, Lion King, Phantom of the Opera or Wicked.

It is also possible to obtain two tickets for the price of one to access nearly 60 attractions, museums or guided tours with the NYC Must-See Week offer: the Empire State Building observatory, the museum Madame Tussauds, the New York Botanical Garden or the Rockefeller Center ice rink are among these.

Finally, as part of NYC Restaurant Week, a tradition spanning nearly 30 years in the Big Apple, some 400 restaurants will offer fixed-price menus: US $ 26 for a two-course dinner and US $ 42 for a three-course dinner. . Offer not valid on Saturdays. Drinks, taxes and tips not included.

“This is the first time that these three promotions have deliberately overlapped in this way,” says Britt Hijkoop, director of communications for the international market at marketing organization NYC & Company.

Accommodation is also cheaper during the winter season. NYC & Company estimates that the average price for overnight stays is reduced by 28%.

The New York Tourist Office has a website in French to inform visitors of the various winter promotions. However, we recommend that you use the English version if possible. The translation has obviously been entrusted to an automated program. This is gibberish. Pity.
