TPAC’s 2026–27 Broadway season brings Phantom, Harry Potter, Hell’s Kitchen and Death Becomes Her
Season announcement outlines eight subscription titles, plus two add-ons, for performances running September 2026 through June 2027
The Tennessee Performing Arts Center has announced its 2026–27 Broadway season in Nashville, anchored by returning productions of The Phantom of the Opera and The Sound of Music and led by six titles billed as Nashville premieres. The schedule runs from September 2026 through June 2027, with most performances slated for TPAC’s Andrew Jackson Hall.
The lineup features eight shows included in season subscription packages and two additional engagements sold separately as add-ons. TPAC’s entry pricing for season packages starts at $396.
What’s in the 2026–27 subscription package
The eight-show subscription series begins in October 2026 and concludes in May 2027. Two returning classics—the Rodgers & Hammerstein musical The Sound of Music and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera—bookend a slate of newer touring titles that have been circulating widely across major U.S. presenting houses.
- The Sound of Music (Oct. 13–18, 2026)
- Death Becomes Her (Nov. 3–8, 2026)
- A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical (Jan. 5–10, 2027)
- The Phantom of the Opera (Feb. 3–14, 2027)
- The Great Gatsby (Mar. 5–14, 2027)
- Hell’s Kitchen (Mar. 30–Apr. 4, 2027)
- Harry Potter and the Cursed Child (Apr. 27–May 9, 2027)
- Buena Vista Social Club (May 18–23, 2027)
Add-ons expand the season to 10 touring engagements
In addition to the subscription series, TPAC is presenting two add-on engagements that are not included in standard season packages and require separate ticket purchases.
- Jersey Boys (Sept. 16–20, 2026)
- Beetlejuice (June 15–20, 2027)
Why the lineup matters for Nashville audiences
For TPAC, the 2026–27 season continues a strategy of pairing long-running brand recognition with newer titles that have been developed into large-scale national tours. Several selections are drawn from adaptations or established intellectual property—Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and The Great Gatsby among them—while others reflect the current pipeline of contemporary Broadway-origin productions moving quickly into touring markets.
The 2026–27 calendar concentrates shows into a steady sequence of limited runs, with most titles playing for roughly one to two weeks.
Ticketing is structured around an eight-show subscription core with add-ons on either side of the season, an approach that allows TPAC to offer a defined package while still booking high-demand tours that can be sold independently.
Additional on-sale dates for individual tickets beyond season packages were not included in the season summary, and patrons seeking specific seat locations and performance times will need to consult TPAC’s box office materials as they are released.
