    Seat Forward

    Donate Your
    Mets Tickets

    Can't get to Citi Field? Send your seats forward to a young fan's first Mets game.

    Plans change, and Mets tickets you can't use don't have to go to waste. Seat Forward turns your unused seats at Citi Field into a first ballgame for a young person, veteran, or family who has never been. Whether it's a single game or a plan date you can't make, your donation is tax-deductible, the transfer is quick through the MLB Ballpark app or Ticketmaster, and your empty seat becomes someone's first taste of baseball in Queens.

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

    What type of event is this?

    Why estimated value? Mets ticket values depend on the opponent, date, and seat location. Use the face value on your ticket or your MLB Ballpark / Ticketmaster order confirmation as the fair market value. As a 501(c)(3), we'll issue an acknowledgment letter reflecting the game and quantity you donate.

    Questions

    Good to Know

    How do I transfer Mets tickets from the MLB Ballpark app?

    After you submit the form, we'll email simple step-by-step instructions for forwarding your tickets through the MLB Ballpark app to our program account. It usually takes just a few minutes.

    Can I donate more than one game?

    Yes — submit the form once per game you'd like to donate, with that game's details. Season and partial-plan holders often send forward several dates across a homestand.

    Is my Mets ticket donation tax-deductible?

    Yes. The Legacy Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 20-4557510). You determine the fair market value — usually the face value of your ticket — and we'll send an acknowledgment letter for your records.
