I’ve used VetTix many times and have had awesome experiences EVERY time I’ve had the opportunity to attend an event from them. From concerts to sporting events, I’ve had a great time. Any specific questions, let me know.

On several occasions I have used vet tix for local events in Las Vegas. You just pay a small handling few for your tickets. Keep in mind they are donated tickets so they are not always the best but free is free and I still enjoyed the events I attended. I support and endorse them and what they do for us Vets

There is a small service fee but the variety of events available is great.

I was active duty for over 11 years. Serving as part of several GMT training teams on departmental and command levels, after rendering monies to wellbeing and support in several ship store platforms as an ARO Custodian and Officer, and while loving my MWR component work mostly on behalf of USO; I was the Captain's FSA and have a NAM to show for it. I am shocked to learn of this. Yes, this is my first introduction to the VetTix program after 6 + years of being a civilian and I am reminded again that TAPs was a horrible waste of time, energy, and dollars for telling us Vets eerily useful information to inform our daily lives as citizens. Wow! I was undoubtedly and dubiously misinformed and woefully ignorant of this type of assistance available to me. I will definitely be taking advantage of my Navy Combat Veteran status more fully this summer, and from now on.

I just learned about VetTix by a VA email newsletter today. I would love to be included in the program and look forward to getting enrolled. I am physically impaired and need wheelchair access which is sometimes difficult getting accommodation at venues. I understand there is limited numbers of seating or should I say parking for my power chair, but I am not able to get to seats in large stadiums on foot. Thank you all for providing this for veterans.

It's a good idea, but hard to get tickets in a large metro area. They have them but there are more vets than tickets. Plus there is a 14 dollar fee that many can't afford.

Since joining one year ago I have attended almost monthly events in the Saint Louis, MO area and several were concerts for my teenage High School kids, who had a wonderful time, including Charlie Puth, Niall Horan, and Taylor Swift. I also got 5th row to Styx, who I have wanted to see ever since I was a teen!

Signing up wasn't a problem. I just blacked out my social security number on my DD214 and uploaded it to the website after scanning it using the CS Cam Scanner app on my cell phone. After referring other veterans and active duty friends and also filling out surveys periodically, I have over 200 coins :) I pre-printed slips of papers to hand out to Veterans when I see them out and about wearing anything that makes me think they were/are military and thank them for their service as well. I LOVE VetTix!!!!

They don't have enough tickets in the New York, New Jersey, Connecticut metropolitan area.
For example, if the Yankees give 200 tickets
to Vet Tix, they are gone within minutes. So, I've never been
able to get any tickets from this service.
