Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo have been touring the world to get fans excited about Wicked and it looks like they’ve done a good job. With their most recent stop in Sydney for the Australian premiere event, Broadway lovers and Arianators are more fired up than ever for Ariana Grande-Butera’s lead feature film debut. Viewers who are dying to see the John Chu-directed musical adaptation, which officially premieres in theaters nationwide on November 22, 2024, have only a few more weeks to wait. But for those who are so excited to experience Oz that they don’t want to wait, there might be a magical solution. Fans have been buzzing about the chance to see the Blockbuster set to make it a Wicked winter ahead of the official premiere and you’ll need all the details. Here’s how to get early access screening tickets to Wicked in the US.
Are there early access screening tickets available for Wicked?
Yes, there are several ways to secure early access screening tickets for Wicked. There are early access fan screenings with limited seats available in select areas through Fandango and other individual movie theatre ticketing sites, such as AMC’s. These screenings are on Wednesday, November 20. In addition, Amazon Prime members can buy tickets through their Prime account for showings on November 18 as a part of Amazon’s Oz on Amazon campaign. Both events are ticketed at full price but will get you in on the fun a few days before the world premiere. If you’re interested in getting in early, time is definitely of the essence! Seats are flying off the site faster than Elphaba on her broom so if you want a shot at a sneak peak, run don’t walk.
What have the early Wicked reviews said about the movie?
Look, no one was more skeptical than me about a WICKED movie, as I have quibbles with the musical. So what a joyous surprise to see how it not only honors thestage show, but improves on it. Should be used as a case study in all future musical adaptations. pic.twitter.com/oIFk8lqI99
