  • Masks are required for all guests, regardless of vaccination status.

Vaccination Requirements

”Fully vaccinated” means on the day of the performance date as shown on the valid ticket, a guest has received (a) the second dose of an FDA or WHO approved two-dose COVID-19 vaccine or (b) the single dose of an FDA or WHO approved COVID-19 vaccine or (c), for international guests, two doses of any “mix and match” combination of an FDA or WHO approved COVID-19 vaccines

I had an incredible time on the Pack Roadtrip Travel Club's New York City adventure! The entire trip was well-organized and enjoyable. The Marriott in Jersey City was a convenient and comfortable base. The Brooklyn tour was informative and fascinating, providing a great overview of the borough. We learned untold facts about black Americans who resided in Brooklyn and had a photo opt in front of Spike Lee's 40 acres and a mule studio. Seeing The Wiz on Broadway was a highlight! The show was fantastic. The bus trip was smooth and comfortable, and the group was a lot of fun. I especially appreciated the free time to explore Times Square on our own. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend The Pack Roadtrip Travel Club!
