Note: Concerning all of the tickets purchased at the Auto Show website, visitors are instructed to print all tickets in advance and bring hard copies to be scanned when entering the event.

  • A premium ticket for a child ages 3-12 costs $17 (tax included).

  • Groups of 20 or more children ages 3-12 can receive standard entry tickets for $5 each (tax included)

The NY Auto Show offers a discount for those taking the Port Imperial Waterway Ferry from Port Imperial Weehawken to Midtown/West 39th Street. Combination tickets are available on the NYIAS website that include a round-trip ferry ride, one-day admission to the event, and free connecting shuttle service to and from the Midtown Terminal.

Uber Travel Discount

Again this year, the NY Auto Show is partnering with Uber and offering a free ride (up to $30) to or from the event using the Uber app and promo code NYAUTOSHOW2014 (according to the website currently, this is still the most up-to-date code).

Promo Codes

The New York International Auto Show’s ticket purchase form includes the ability to add promotional codes. Certain workplaces and organizations offer exclusive discount codes for the event. For instance, AAA has offered its members discounts in the past with codes like AAA16.

Currently, we were unable to find any codes valid for 2017 that work, but you might be able to find some online closer to the event date.

Occasional Sales

Sometimes, the NY Auto Show runs brief sales on ticket purchases. For instance, it ran a Valentine’s Day sale on February 14th only, which was announced on its Facebook page. That sale is over now, but we suggest following NYIAS on Facebook in case other or future sales are announced.
