The Ticket Bank Powered by Tickets for Good

Because everyone deserves a night out

The Ticket Bank is a social-impact project of Tickets for Good. We believe live events should not be a privilege, but a right for everyone, regardless of your financial situation.

The Ticket Bank exists to make gigs, festivals, theatre, sport and comedy accessible with free and heavily discounted tickets.

With just a small booking fee, we provide access to great events for families and individuals who might otherwise miss out.

“Thanks for making it possible for others to attend events that they normally wouldn't be able to afford.”

Trusted by councils across the UK

What the Ticket Bank is

We work with Tickets for Good to redistribute spare tickets through a trusted network of event organisers, promoters and venues.

These are seats that would otherwise go empty, now made available to people who could really use a moment to enjoy a show, check out their favourite band or enjoy a sporting moment with family and friends.

The Ticket Bank is open to people receiving government benefits and to those referred by our bridge-partners, including local councils, food banks, housing services and charities.

Once you are signed up, you can book directly through the platform. It is simple, quick and easy to use.

We have separate platforms for people working in healthcare, charity, education or as a volunteer.

Who can join?

The Ticket Bank is for people who might face barriers that make it harder to access live events. This could include:

People receiving certain income-related or support-based benefits

Unpaid carers

People supported by community or charity organisations

If you are unsure, simply start the sign-up. The process will guide you and you may be eligible even if you did not expect to be.

How It Works

01
Event partners donate spare tickets

From theatres and music festivals to football clubs, comedy nights, arena tours and grassroots venues, partners across the live events sector donate tickets to the Ticket Bank platform.

02
Check your eligibility

Individuals on low incomes can apply with proof of benefits or through referral from a trusted community partner like a council, food bank or local charity. To check eligibility, begin the sign-up process here.

03
Browse events

Once your account is verified, you can browse hundreds of events on the platform. You can filter events by location or genre to help you find the perfect event for you.

04
Book your tickets

With just a small booking fee, you can access tickets across the country. Many events allow additional tickets so you can bring family, friends, colleagues, neighbours or whoever you want to enjoy the event with you.

05
Enjoy the experience

Attend your events, enjoy the moment and don’t forget to send us a picture or two. Our ticket donors love to see people enjoying the events and hearing your feedback.

Why this matters

One in three low-income families says the cost of tickets stops them from taking part in cultural and social life.

Half of children living in poverty are less likely to attend music, theatre or sport.

We know that shared experiences can build confidence, ease stress and bring people together and whilst a night out might not solve everything, it certainly can make a difference

The Ticket Bank helps make that happen.

What our members say

It has been the most valuable thing in my life bringing friends together and new experiences to life. I'm so grateful.
Ticket Bank Member
It's given me something I'm able to look forward. The planned events in my life are often stressful, tedious or just boring and this has injected some much needed positivity, fun and freedom into my life and has really helped me to feel less socially isolated.
Ticket Bank Member
It’s given me and my loved ones the chance to experience events we never thought we’d be able to attend. From live music that lifted our spirits to theatre shows that sparked meaningful conversations, each outing has created memories we’ll treasure forever.
