Student Ticket Programs

Bringing Live Music to Ventura’s Next Generation

At the Ventura Music Festival, we believe that access to live, world-class music shouldn't be limited by cost. As part of our longstanding commitment to music education and the arts, we offer a range of student ticket initiatives designed to make our events and performances accessible to students of all ages and backgrounds. The experience of hearing great music live is one that can spark a lifelong love of the arts, and we are committed to making sure every student has the opportunity to feel it.

  • Student Ticket Pricing

    Value student tickets are available for $15 at all VMF performances.

    Purchase your Value Student ticket online, then simply present a valid school ID at the door. If you're under 18, no ID is required. It's that easy to experience world-class music live!

  • Custom Student Incentives

    We're passionate about building meaningful connections between students and live music, and we'd love to partner with you to make that happen in your classroom. VMF offers flexible incentive programs that can be tailored to your students' needs, including grade percentage improvements for attending a concert or volunteering with VMF, with complimentary tickets provided. We can also work with you to integrate VMF attendance into your curriculum in a way that's meaningful and manageable. Our Education Program Coordinator is ready to help you find the right fit. Get in touch and let's build something great for your students.

  • Group Attendance

    Are you an educator or music teacher looking to bring your students to a VMF performance?

    Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we are able to further subsidize ticket pricing for student groups, and on select occasions, offer complimentary tickets for your entire class, band, or orchestra. We'd love to work with you to make it happen. Reach out using the form below and our team will be in touch.
