Get a Fixed Price for Times Square

Tell us the hotel, theater or restaurant, the time the evening starts and roughly when it ends. You get one fixed price before you book, and the pickup point is agreed before the curtain goes up.

The price includes the car, the chauffeur, tolls and fifteen minutes of waiting. Gratuity is not included. For a show night with dinner first, booking by the hour is usually simpler.

The plazas

Where a Car Can Meet You Near Times Square

The busiest square in the city is the one place a car cannot meet you. Knowing where it can is the difference between a five minute walk and a half hour search.

Where a car can meet you

  • Broadway, 42nd to 47th Street: pedestrian plazas, no cars
  • Seventh Avenue: open to traffic, crowded curbs at show times
  • Side streets in the West 40s: theater blocks, busy at eight and eleven
  • Sixth and Eighth Avenue: usually the quickest legal pickup
  • New Year's Eve: the whole area closed to cars from early on December 31

From the street layout of the square and the NYPD's New Year's Eve notices.

Broadway through Times Square, from 42nd Street to 47th, is no longer a road. It is a set of pedestrian plazas, with Seventh Avenue carrying the traffic on one side. Around 220,000 people entered the square on an average day in 2024, according to the Times Square Alliance's counts, and a good share of them are standing exactly where you would like the car to be.

So a booked car never meets you in the square itself. It meets you on Seventh Avenue, on a side street, or one avenue over, at a point where it may legally stop for passengers. On a quiet afternoon that can be very close. At eight in the evening, as the shows go in, or at eleven, as they come out, the closest legal spot is often a block or two away, and the walk is quicker than the wait.

That is why we agree the pickup point when you book and confirm it before you leave the theater, rather than promising a car at the door. The chauffeur sends the exact corner and the car's description, and is there when you arrive. The extra two minutes on foot save the twenty minutes that a car spends trying to reach a theater entrance through a crowd.

For anyone who needs the car closer, because of a wheelchair, a walker or a long gown on a cold night, tell us when you book. The chauffeur plans the nearest legal point for that block and comes to meet you on foot.

Shows

Broadway Nights in the Theater District

Broadway is the main reason people book a car into Times Square. The Broadway League counted 14,577,322 admissions in the 2025 to 2026 season, and most of the houses sit in the Theater District around the square. For a show night with dinner, an hourly car for show nights keeps the same chauffeur with you from the first course to the drive home.

Before the show

Most evening performances start around seven or eight, and the side streets fill from half an hour before. We drop you on the avenue nearest your theater, which is usually quicker than the theater's own block.

After the show

Shows let out within minutes of each other, so the curb is at its worst just as you leave. The chauffeur waits a block or two away, on a corner agreed in advance, and messages the spot as the curtain comes down.

Matinees

Wednesday and weekend afternoon performances are calmer outside, and the car can usually be closer. A matinee with lunch nearby is one of the easiest Broadway days to plan.

Dinner first

Restaurant Row on West 46th Street and the blocks around it are a short walk from most theaters. Book the car by the hour and it waits through dinner and the show, then takes you home. Tell us the restaurant and the theater, and the chauffeur plans both drop offs and the final pickup.

The curb

Which Avenue for the Pickup

Four choices around the square, and when each one works.

Seventh Avenue

Open to traffic along the east side of the plazas and the obvious place to look for a car, which is exactly why it is crowded at show times. Good in the afternoon, slow at eight and eleven.

Sixth Avenue

One avenue east, wider and usually calmer in the evening. A three minute walk from most of the square and our usual choice for a pickup after a show on the east side of the district.

Eighth Avenue

One avenue west, close to the theaters on West 44th to 46th Street and to Restaurant Row. Busy around the bus terminal at rush hour, easier late in the evening, and the closest avenue for the Lincoln Tunnel if you are heading to New Jersey.

The side streets

West 44th, 45th and 46th Street hold many of the theaters themselves. They are easy before six, impossible between half past seven and eight, and impossible again when the shows let out.

The hours

Times Square Hour by Hour

The same square is four different places across a day.

Morning

The quietest time in the square. Hotel departures for the airport are easy, and the car can usually meet you at the hotel's own entrance. It is also the best time for photographs in the square without the crowds.

Afternoon

Busier with visitors, but the curbs move. Matinee audiences arrive from about one, and Seventh Avenue pickups still work. Weekends are busier than weekdays at every hour of the afternoon.

Evening

From six the shows, the restaurants and the visitors all arrive at once. This is when the meeting point moves to Sixth or Eighth Avenue and the walk becomes worth it.

Late night

After the shows the square stays busy past midnight, but the avenues clear. A car booked for the end of the evening is waiting when you come out, with no search for a cab, and the drive home is quick once you are clear of the district.

New Year's Eve

New Year's Eve in Times Square by Car

The one night a car cannot get anywhere near the square, and the night everyone wants one.

Book early

Every car in the city is booked for New Year's Eve. If you want one, reserve it in the autumn, not the week before.

Expect the closures

In recent years the NYPD has closed Times Square to vehicles from the early hours of December 31, with viewing areas filling from the morning. No car will reach the square that day.

Meet outside the zone

We agree a pickup outside the closed blocks, usually east of Sixth Avenue or west of Eighth, and tell you the walking route to it.

Plan the walk out

After midnight, hundreds of thousands of people leave at once. Allow time to walk to the car, and keep your phone charged for the chauffeur's message.

Leaving the area means leaving

Under the NYPD's viewing rules, people who leave a viewing area before the ball drops are not allowed back into it. Plan restaurant, hotel and car times around that.

Indoors instead

For a party in a hotel or restaurant near the square, the car meets you outside the closures before and after, and the evening runs on a timetable agreed in advance. Hotels near the square usually publish their own access arrangements for the night; we plan around them.

On foot

The Plazas and the Busiest Nights

The plazas are the reason the square works for people on foot, and the reason it does not work for cars. A chauffeur who knows the area treats them like a river: you cross on foot, and the car waits on the bank you agreed.

The same thinking applies on the busiest nights of the year beyond New Year's Eve: the run up to the holidays, summer weekends and any evening when a major show opens. On those nights we suggest a meeting point one avenue away and a time a few minutes after the crowd peaks. Waiting ten minutes over a drink after the curtain often gets you home sooner than walking straight into the crush on Seventh Avenue.

Hotels and airports

Arriving at a Times Square Hotel

Times Square is the first stop for many visitors to New York, and the hotels on and around it are some of the busiest drop offs in the city. Tell us the hotel, and the chauffeur uses the entrance that works, often on the side street rather than the plaza.

From the airports, the route depends on the hour. Our pages on JFK to Times Square by car, LaGuardia to Times Square car service and Newark Airport to Times Square car service cover the terminals and timings. Every pickup is flight tracked and met inside arrivals, and the price is fixed whatever time the flight lands. Newark is often the quickest airport to the West Side through the Lincoln Tunnel, and LaGuardia the quickest to the East Side.

Going home, allow extra time for leaving the area at show times and on weekend evenings, and tell us how many bags are coming down so we send a car with a trunk to match. Early morning departures are the easiest of all: the square is quiet, and the car can wait at the hotel door.

Groups

Families, Celebrations and Groups

Times Square is where many of the city's big nights out begin.

Families

Children tire quickly in the crowds, and a stroller is hard work on the plazas. An SUV with seats fitted before the pickup, met at the hotel, turns a show night with children into an easy one.

Birthdays and anniversaries

Dinner, a show and the drive home in one booking, with the chauffeur holding the door at each stop. The Rolls-Royce or a stretch makes the arrival part of the evening.

Bachelorette and bachelor nights

A stretch or a van that keeps the group together from the hotel to the show and on to the next stop, with one meeting point agreed for everyone at the end.

Visiting teams and school trips

A van or several cars for a group seeing a show, with a head count at each pickup and one contact for the organizer.

One meeting point. For groups, one meeting point matters more than anything. Agree it before the show, tell everyone, and the chauffeur will be there with the car when the last person arrives.

Nearby

Beyond the Square

Times Square sits at the heart of Midtown, and most trips from here run through it. For offices, stations and the rest of the district, see our page on Midtown limo and car service; for the rest of the island, car service across Manhattan.

Many evenings that start here end somewhere else: a late dinner downtown, a hotel on the Upper East Side, a train home from Grand Central or Penn Station, or a drive back to Westchester, Long Island or New Jersey. Tell us the last stop when you book, and the price covers the whole evening rather than just the first leg.

FAQ

Times Square FAQs

A person answers the phone at any hour if your plans change.

It depends on the vehicle, the trip and whether you book a journey or hours. Every quote is a fixed price with tolls included; gratuity is not included. Use the form above or call 914-770-4646.

Usually not at show times. The theater blocks are crowded and cars cannot stop in the plazas, so we agree a corner a short walk away. For anyone who cannot walk far, we plan the closest legal point.

Not in the plazas, where cars are not allowed. We drop on Seventh Avenue or the nearest side street, a minute or two on foot from the square. In the morning that is usually right beside it; at show times it may be one avenue away.

Yes, but book early, and expect to meet the car outside the closed area. In recent years the NYPD has closed Times Square to vehicles from the early hours of December 31.

On an hourly booking, yes. The chauffeur waits nearby within the curb rules and meets you at the agreed corner afterwards.

Allow extra time between six and eight, especially on weekends and in December. We will suggest a pickup time from your address. For a hotel within the district, ten minutes is usually enough; from the Upper East Side or downtown, allow half an hour or more.

Every day. Tell us the hotel and we will tell you which entrance the car will use. Many hotels around the square have a side street entrance that is far quicker than the plaza front, especially in the evening.

Yes. A stretch suits a celebration, though it is harder to bring close to a theater block, so the walk to the car may be a little longer than with a sedan.

Yes, from JFK, LaGuardia and Newark, flight tracked and met inside arrivals, at a fixed price. The chauffeur takes you to the hotel's side entrance if the front faces the plaza.

Honestly, no. If the theater is a short walk from your hotel, walk. A car is worth it from further away, with children, in bad weather or late at night. We would rather you enjoy the walk than pay for a car you do not need.

Yes. A van or a stretch carries up to fourteen or more together, with one pickup point agreed for everyone after the show, so nobody is left looking for the car on a crowded corner.

On an hourly booking, the chauffeur simply waits. On a fixed trip, tell us the expected end time and we will plan the pickup around it. If the show overruns, a message to the chauffeur is all it takes.

Yes, at no charge, fitted before the pickup. Tell us the ages and weights of the children when you book, and mention a stroller so we send a car with room for it.

The meeting point is always a lit, busy corner close to the theater, and the chauffeur messages before you leave so you walk straight to the car. The chauffeur can also come to the theater door and walk with you if you prefer.

Yes. Times Square trips go everywhere: home to the Upper East Side, downtown, the airports, and out to Westchester, Long Island and New Jersey.
