Mobile Ticketing Guide
Your phone is now your ticket into the Tribute Communities Centre.
Mobile tickets use email or text messaging to send your tickets directly to you after purchase. These tickets are optimized for display on your smartphone device. Tribute Communities Centre tickets will be distributed through mobile delivery and accessed by ticketholders through digital wallets on smartphones. The move to mobile ticketing allows for faster delivery of tickets to fans, contactless transactions at gates and more flexibility for ticketholders.
Event Day Tips
Prior to arriving to an event, here are ways to speed up your entry into the venue:
- Access your tickets through the 'My Account' page at least 24 hours prior to the event on tributecommunitiescentre.com
- Download and save your tickets to your Apple Wallet or Google Pay.
- Make sure your phone is fully charged.
- Have your mobile ticket ready to be scanned before entering the venue.
- It is recommended to send each guest their own individual ticket if the party is arriving separately but you are able to swipe through tickets if your party is entering altogether.
PLEASE NOTE: To avoid issues on an event day, please download and save tickets in advance, as venue connectivity can vary and there is no public WiFi available at the venue. If you do not download and save your mobile tickets to your mobile wallet prior to the event, you will need to use cellular data to access your tickets and may have trouble connecting on an event day. Do not print out your digital ticket as printed digital tickets will not be accepted at the gate. If you experience any ticket issues when entering the venue, please visit the Ticket Office for assistance.
