What is Music Hall of Williamsburg's concert capacity?
Music Hall of Williamsburg in New York has a concert capacity of 650. That number sets the ceiling on gross potential before comps and per-ticket fees come out.

What 650 means on a settlement sheet

Illustrative face-value gross at three ticket prices and three sell-through levels. Real nets land lower: comps consume capacity without revenue, and per-ticket fees sit between face value and what the show keeps.

Sell-through$20 ticket$30 ticket$45 ticket
100% (650 tickets)$13,000$19,500$29,250
85% (553 tickets)$11,050$16,575$24,863
70% (455 tickets)$9,100$13,650$20,475

Whether a show pencils at these numbers depends on the guarantee and cost base, not the gross — break-even is the number that decides.
