How Do I Use the Golden Ticket Arts Guide?
First, review the guide to find events or cultural venues that you would like to visit. Seniors are required to call the corresponding organization to make a reservation as the Golden Tickets are available on a first come, first served basis. Golden Tickets will be available two weeks before an event. We recommend you call as early as possible to reserve your ticket. Check each listing and organization for specific information. The day of the event you must either print one of the self-print tickets or clip a Golden Ticket coupon from the guide and complete the back with the appropriate information.
At the venue entrance you must present the following:
- One Golden Ticket coupon per eligible person
- Photo ID showing proof of age (62 years) and Miami-Dade County residency
Senior centers or large groups that wish to attend a Golden Ticket event/venue must contact the participating organization in advance to make special Group Visit arrangements.
How Do I Get to Cultural Events?
Do you need transportation to attend one of these great cultural events? Seniors who are 65 years of age and are permanent residents of Miami-Dade County are eligible to ride Miami-Dade Transit FREE with a Golden Passport transit pass.
