Shubbak is excited to roll out our Assisted Tickets Scheme for 2025!
At Shubbak we are committed to ensuring our festival is accessible to everyone, regardless of age, profession or income. As an arts organisation we believe everyone should have the chance to participate in and experience the joy, wonder, and connection that is built through shared engagement with live events and the arts.
That's why we are delighted to offer subsidised tickets to a number of our shows, for anyone who might not otherwise be able to attend.
Who is this for?
- Community organisations working with children, young people and / or migrant and refugee communities
- Unwaged, unemployed or those on income support
- D/deaf, Hard of Hearing and Disabled – including all hidden disabilities, and their access companions (please indicate on the form if you need an access companion)
- Students and over 60s
How to apply
Request free tickets by completing the form before Thursday 22 May, 4pm.
We wouldn't want money to be a barrier for anyone and hope that through this scheme we are able to invite everyone no matter their income or background to participate at our events.
We'd love for you to come along to Shubbak, and look forward to seeing you there!
Please note: Subsidised tickets will be offered on a first come first served basis as per availability, and filling this form does not guarantee a ticket. Tickets are not guaranteed to all events and will be allocated on suitability and first come first serve basis. If you are planning on attending online events please still do fill in the form. Thank you!
