The Philippine Idol Top 6 performed the song as the opening number to the show's movie/musical themed performance night on November 19, 2006. During the 7th season of American Idol, the song was sung by the eight finalists during the "Idol Gives Back" special, which first aired April 9, 2008.
The song was performed at the end of the 1996 Democratic National Convention by the original Broadway cast.
On September 5, 1997, it was performed on Good Morning America as a tribute to Joan Lunden on her final day.
The song was used in the Office episode "Michael's Last Dundies", in which Andy Bernard leads most of the cast in serenading the soon-to-depart Michael Scott in a piano-backed version with altered lyrics. On the last episode of Live with Regis and Kelly, the off-Broadway cast of Rent performed a personalized version of the song in recognition of Regis Philbin's departure.
A variant of the song was also featured in a 2010 Macy's jewelry commercial that sparked heated online debates.
In Season 13 of the American Dancing With the Stars, Hope Solo & Maksim Chmerkovskiy danced a Rumba to Seasons of Love in Week 6 of competition during Broadway week.
The song was played during the funeral of the Philippines' King of Comedy Dolphy at the Heritage Park in Taguig City on July 15, 2012.

“What is a television apparatus to man, who has only to shut his eyes to see the most inaccessible regions of the seen and the never seen, who has only to imagine in order to pierce through walls and cause all the planetary Baghdads of his dreams to rise from the dust.”
—Salvador Dali (1904–1989)
“This play holds the season’s record [for early closing], thus far, with a run of four evening performances and one matinee. By an odd coincidence it ran just five performances too many.”
