What is Vet Tix

The Veteran Tickets Foundation (Vet Tix) is a national 501c3 nonprofit founded by veterans dedicated to support and honor the U.S. military community, veterans and their families. The Vet Tix mission is to provide tickets to sporting events, concerts, performing arts and family activities aimed at improving mental welfare and enriching the lives of military service members and veterans.

Who We Serve

We serve ALL branches of the US Military currently-serving, honorably-discharged veterans and their families as well as the immediate family of those Killed in Action. Since 2008, we have given out over 32.5 million tickets and are active in all 50 states!

How Attending Events Helps

We know that strong family bonds and community involvement are essential tools for Veterans during active duty, post-deployment, and post-service years. Providing event tickets to the US military community shows gratitude for their years of service and encourages them to be active with their families and communities. Receiving tickets in honor of their service allows veterans to feel proud of their military time, which helps build a positive identity. Vet Tix offers such a diverse range of events that it is easy and appealing for vets to use our services, regardless of age or physical ability. We make it possible for retired veterans to take their grandchildren to Disney on Ice, for a family to enjoy an afternoon together cheering on their local team and to experience to magic of the Nutcracker ballet. Vet Tix offers multiple tickets allowing veterans to go with family and other veterans. Events that connect veterans and family builds stronger relationships. Repeated experiences at a range of events helps veterans build a better social structure, both within their families and their communities. The overall result is a higher quality of life.

Why do our Donors Love Us?

Vet Tix provides a rewarding and simple way for donors to give back!

Vet Tix enriches Veterans' lives, but we are also a benefit to donors. Since Veteran Tickets Foundation is a 501c3 non-profit foundation, individual ticket holders and businesses can receive tax deductions for their donations which they would not receive by donating directly to bases or military families.

The Vet Tix system is transparent. We are independently GAAP audited and have been at 96.5% to program or above each year. Venues, artist, teams get to know that their tickets are used by our Military and our Veterans. Our verification system ensures that only qualified people get access to tickets and discounts. We provide easy methods to donate shipped, will-call, print at home, or mobile delivery, with complete tracking along the process.

In a world of musical tributes, few artists possess the gravitas and technical prowess to approach the monumental legacy of John Coltrane. Yet, at a recent performance, the duo of trumpeter Kenyon Harold and drummer Nate Smith did just that, delivering a tribute that was less a mimicry and more a living, breathing conversation with the master's spirit. The atmosphere was charged from the moment the first note rang out. Harold’s trumpet, a voice both brassy and ethereal, didn’t attempt to replicate Coltrane's tenor saxophone. Instead, he channeled the philosophical and emotional core of Coltrane's playing. The blistering, cascading arpeggios of "Giant Steps" were reimagined with a lyrical clarity, each note a deliberate step in a new harmonic journey. There was a raw vulnerability to his performance on slower pieces, echoing the spiritual introspection of "A Love Supreme" with a mournful, yet hopeful, tone. Nate Smith, a force of nature on the drums, was the perfect rhythmic foil. He didn’t merely keep time; he sculpted it. His dynamic range was astounding, moving from a subtle, whispering brushwork that felt like a heartbeat to an explosive, polyrhythmic fury that pushed Harold to new heights. The interplay between the two was a masterclass in musical dialogue. Harold would pose a melodic question, and Smith would respond with a percussive answer, creating a seamless and electrifying call-and-response that held the audience in rapt attention. The true genius of the evening lay in the duo’s ability to honor the tradition while forging their own path. They deconstructed Coltrane’s compositions, finding new spaces for improvisation and fresh perspectives on familiar themes. This was not a nostalgic trip; it was a testament to the enduring influence of Coltrane's music as a living art form. Harold and Smith didn’t just play the notes; they conveyed the profound passion and spiritual yearning that defined Coltrane’s work. The performance was a powerful reminder that true tribute is not just about imitation, but about innovation born from deep respect. Thank you ArtPower at UC San Diego, VetTix.org and the Epstein staff for a wonderful night of music.

I would like to express my appreciation to the donor of the NASCAR Truck Series tickets. It was a very enjoyable experience. As a veteran, I cannot extend my thanks enough to VETTIX and it's generous donors for the experience that I felt while watching the Truck Race. It was a perfect day and the sites and sounds of the race are something that I will remember for a long time. Again, my extreme thanks to the donor for this experience.
