    Seat Forward

    Donate Your
    J. Cole Tickets

    Can't make one of the two Garden nights? Turn your seats into a young fan's first concert.

    J. Cole plays two nights at Madison Square Garden, August 2 and 4 — a pair of shows that rank among the summer's most in-demand hip-hop tickets in the city. If your plans changed and you're holding seats you can't use, Seat Forward places them with a young person or family who has never been to a live show. Your donation is tax-deductible, the transfer is quick, and a seat that would have sat empty becomes an unforgettable first concert.

    No tickets to give? Fund a seat with a gift instead — from $75.

    Event Category

    What type of event is this?

    Why estimated value? J. Cole tickets at Madison Square Garden vary by night and seat location, with floor and lower-bowl seats commanding the most. Use the face value on your ticket or your Ticketmaster order confirmation as the fair market value. As a 501(c)(3), we'll send an acknowledgment letter reflecting the night and quantity you donate.

    Questions

    Good to Know

    Can I donate tickets to just one of the two nights?

    Yes — donate the August 2 or August 4 show, whichever you can't attend. Tell us the date in the form and we'll place your seats.

    Who receives the tickets I donate?

    Through vetted community partners, your seats go to NYC-area youth and families attending a live concert for the first time. You'll get confirmation once placed.
