All schedules fall on a Saturday & Sunday.
I assume that the blocked months of Feb/March/part of Apr/part of May will be used to film The Death of Robin Hood.

Do we have any idea how much these tickets will cost?

Likely similar in pricing structure as in his 2019 MSGarden show ( part of tour) -- it is being held in a similar-sized venue, managed by the same concert production company ( Dainty), sold also by Ticketmaster... and adjusted for inflation.
Seeing HJ performing in NYC is usually more expensive than with other cities because NYC is an expensive city -- and more so during weekends when hotel prices tend to rise very significantly.
If one chooses to see it at one of the top galleries of RCMH it will likely be more affordable pricing but that will only be one of the components of your budget (hotel/flight if out-of-state/food/ city tranportation/ - important to stay near Metro stop) or if you can share with others on hotel accommodations - that can bring overall cost down. Taxis are also hard to come by around the time Broadway shows or a show at RCMH ends. Best to travel with someone as it will provide some cost-saving chances.
Just guessing, from experience.

It looks like the most excited are the new fans of Hugh -- the so-called HUGH JACKMAN RENAISSANCE now seen often on social media with their posts. They became fans due to the movie Deadpool & Wolverine and started watching his filmography and clips from previous live performances. And of course the Wolverine fanboys who would like to see him as a Showman! Lol - welcome to the club

We sensed it might be a serious announcement because he wore dress shoes while riding on a Citibike near Rockefeller Center ( and of course Radio City Music Hall) http://instagram.com/p/DA57AAgRh0M

I bet they throw in a VIP experience level in ticketing tiers.

I wonder how long Hugh has been planning this?
Last year, around late October or early November he was seen leaving a restaurant ( not sure if NYC or LA) with a supposed mystery blonde. That turned out to be Donna Dainty who was actually there with her husband promoter Paul Dainty. Did this NYC show emanate from discussions then -- whether a show like TMTMTS can work in a very large venue like Radio City Music Hall on a residency-like tour?
I guess they had to factor in Hugh's commitments for Deadline & Wolverine and its related promotion & media tour.
And what good fortune that this residency at RCMH is coming immediately upon the success of Deadpool & Wolverine ( the largest box office live action movie so far in 2024) and the unexpected expansion of Hugh Jackman's fanbase!

Jo No clue as to when this specific production run was conceived. But Hugh did say way back during his first one man show genesis ( San Fran, Toronto) that he longed to develop something he could perform at will, between bigger projects. This seems to fit that goal. The Eli Manning benefit must have been a warm up to Hugh getting back in the musical saddle again. It had the career overview of material feel to it.

This seems to fit that goal. The Eli Manning benefit must have been a warm up to Hugh getting back in the musical saddle again. It had the career overview of material feel to it. I agree. The Radio City Music Hall residency was also something he first mentioned when he was asked if he could revive TBFO. I guess the variety-show type ( now a career retrospective) became the more attractive option for a RCMH engagment. Yes, I had the same thoughts about the Manning affair show. At that time, I thought he and Patrick V are set up again for another and longer stint. At some point, I hope he will agree to film and release what he feels is the most complete retrospective. His fanbase has surprisingly expanded now ( with the success of Deadpool&Wolverine) and some are from the superhero fandom who want to see his display of talent and many of them come from around the world.

WOW - they have doubled the number of shows! 24 shows as of now! Presumably on the back of strong sales on the first day of pre-sales. *Added matinee shows *Extended the residency to October 2025 I wonder if they are also looking at the tourist inflows into NYC during those dates? www.ticketmaster.com/venue/491523?attractionId=1580836

Some flighst to NYC, especially the longhaul ones, may sometimes give a chance to see shows as added attraction ( for an additional price). Also, if you see the many options for a tourist ( domestic or overseas) visiting NYC, there are many sightseeing options or attractions offered. Will this show be part of the offerings? It will be a first for a concert that I know of? Like - "Lady Liberty or Hugh Jackman performing?" Jo

Like this one, from Japan --
I remember sitting next to a young lady from Japan during his MSGarden show - she was young & travelled by herself, could hardly speak English, quite shy and friendly ...and she had tickets to all 3 shows -- a few rows from the stage!
I also think that non-English speaking tourists are likely to enjoy this kind of entertainment ( concerts) more than a Broadway show -- it is mostly song and dance - unlike in a musical play where one must also understand the dialog to appreciate the show fully.
