    Seat Forward

    Donate Your Lion King Tickets

    Can't make the show? Give a child their first Broadway night — The Lion King.

    The Lion King is many a child's first Broadway show — and when your tickets would go unused, they can be exactly that for a young person who's never been. Seat Forward places your seats with a child or family who would never otherwise experience the Minskoff's opening number. Your donation is tax-deductible, the transfer is quick, and an empty seat becomes a lifelong memory.

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

    Recipients Attend

    Beginning with our 2026 launch, we match donated tickets — through vetted partners — with youth, veterans, and families who've never had the experience.

    A seat that would have sat empty has someone in it.

    What type of event is this?

    Why estimated value? The Lion King ticket values vary by seat and performance date. Use your ticket's face value or official order confirmation as the fair market value. As a 501(c)(3), we'll send an acknowledgment letter for the performance and quantity you donate.
