Tickets

Buy Tickets Online

Tickets for individual events can be purchased from the Events section.

 

When you buy tickets online, you must either print your ticket at home and bring it to the event, or present the confirmation email on your phone, to gain admission. Tickets purchased online are not mailed, and cannot be picked up at the door.

 

Thanks to the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, tickets for mainstage events are free for Carleton Students. Carleton tickets can be reserved online via the "get tickets feature" or by phone at 613.562.1243
