Broadway's Biggest Fan Contest - Fans were asked to submit a sixty-second video showing why they are Broadway's biggest fan. Videos from 3 finalists will be broadcast on a jumbo screen in Times Square in front of a crowd of thousands. The three semi-finalists will be present and the ultimate winner will be determined by audience applause at the event.
Broadway Fan Zone will also make its debut this year, giving fans an opportunity to enjoy the concert from a VIP area right near the stage. It's an up-close and personal standing-room section available to the first 100 fans that arrive dressed as their favorite Broadway character.
