The Ticket Charity

Every ticket is a moment that matters.

We turn unused tickets to games, concerts, theatre and family events into unforgettable experiences for deserving kids and their families across Canada. Every one of them started with a seat that would otherwise have stayed empty.

Impact that adds up to something human

Millions of experiences.
Millions of memories.

Behind every number is a kid seeing their first live show, a family cheering side by side, or a young person discovering something they love. The numbers are impressive. The moments are what matter.

How it works

A simple idea with a lasting effect.

Great seats go unused every day. We make sure they find a kid who will remember them forever.

  1. You donate tickets

    Season ticket holders, corporate partners, venues and teams share the seats they can't use. Sports, concerts, arts, festivals and family events are all welcome.

  2. We match them locally

    Your local chapter works with trusted community agencies to place every ticket with a deserving child, youth or family in your city.

  3. Kids get up front

    A great seat, a night out, a memory that lasts. Families experience the joy of their community together, as full participants and not spectators from the outside.

Aisha's first concert, and the song she still hums

A donated pair of tickets became a night a mother and daughter still talk about a year later. Small gesture, big memory.

A partner's box on game night, filled with new fans

My son talked about that game for weeks. He felt like he belonged there, like the city had saved him a seat.
