How do presales work?

A presale is an offer to make a purchase before the public on-sale. It’s an interesting opportunity to buy tickets. 

To take advantage of the evenko presales and to become an evenko member, CLICK HERE. If a presale is available for the show that interests you, an email will be sent to you a few days before the scheduled on-sale date. 

Several other types of presales can be offered for each show. The main presales are those offered to fan club members, by some credit card companies, and by the event promoters. 

To take advantage of fan club presales, you must be a member of the artist’s fan club and visit the artist’s website to check if a presale will be offered to members. 

Please note that only a limited quantity of our ticket inventory is available during presales. Thus, having access to a presale doesn’t guarantee having access to seats or to better seats. 

You don't have a credit card?

If you don’t have a credit card, it’s possible to buy your tickets in person at the box office using a debt card or a prepaid credit card. The box office does not accept cash.

It’s also possible to get a prepaid credit card in some financial institutions or retail outlets. In such a case, make sure to correctly activate your card and to keep it until the date of your event.

VIP Packages

Some artists offer VIP packages to their fans. Those packages vary from one show to another and don’t always include the same perks. For more details about VIP offers, you can visit your favourite artist’s website.

An email will be sent to you by those in charge of the package a few days before your event in order to provide more information on the package. If you wish to get more information about your package earlier, we invite you to visit the artist’s website and to communicate directly with their production team.

Minimum Age

Generally, there is no minimum age to attend our events at the Bell Centre. In a case where an age restriction is imposed, we indicate it on evenko.ca and you will be notified when you purchase tickets.

The minimum age to buy alcoholic drinks is 18. If you plan to have alcoholic drinks at the venue, please have in your possession two (2) valid pieces of identification and make sure to drink responsibly.

Tickets for children

Children below the age of 24 months can enter Bell Centre for free, but they must sit on the lap of the accompanying adult. Please note that if asked, you will have to show a piece of identification proving the age of the child.

From the age of 24 months, children must have a ticket in their possession and must sit in their own seat.

How come tickets sell so quickly?

If tickets sell quickly, this means that the event is very popular and that demand is high. A portion of tickets may have been sold during the presales. We invite you to read the Presales section to learn more. Furthermore, with the new technologies, it’s possible to sell hundreds of tickets per minute, which means that the inventory of available tickets is gone quickly.

Being fans ourselves, we understand the desire to attend the shows of our idols. We invite you to check out our tips to maximize your chances to buy tickets.

Ticket release

As an event approaches, the technical needs of the producers become more precise, which allows us to sell tickets that were originally not available for technical reasons. Furthermore, in the hours before an event, once the stage setup and the installation of the technical equipment are completed, evenko and the producers adjust the capacity and release new tickets, space permitting. Consequently, it’s possible that tickets closer to the stage will be available after your purchase. Be certain, though, that at the time you made your purchase, the best available tickets were those you have in your possession.

Please note that, as indicated in our purchase contract available at www.evenko.ca, there is no exchange or refund once a ticket has been purchased.

Venue, service and handling fees

A venue fee is a fixed fee making it possible to cover the maintenance and repair costs of the amphitheatre such as renovations or restoration and upgrade work. It’s applicable on every purchased ticket.

A service fee relates to the service that is offered to you during the purchase of your tickets. This fee is billed by the intermediary who sells tickets to you in order to cover operating costs such as call centres, box offices, managing and maintaining the websites, etc. The service fee varies from one show to another and from one venue to another. It is applicable on every purchased ticket.

The handling fee is a fixed fee applicable once for the overall order, which makes it possible to cover the costs of printing and sending the tickets in the case of a mailing, the Internet connection fees and the costs associated with a secure delivery in the case of electronic tickets, and the printing and handling of the tickets in the case of a will call.

Tips to maximize your chances to buy tickets

  • Presales offer an interesting possibility to purchase tickets before the public on-sale. We invite you to check out the Presales section for more details.
  • The sale system always offers you the best available tickets at the moment you make your purchase. Particularly in an on-sale context, if you reject the seat offer and try a new search, it’s possible that the system will offer you seats further from the stage.
  • In the hours before the show, it’s possible that the producers will release tickets. For more details, check out the Ticket Release section.

Please note that the chances to have access to tickets are the same whether you use the Internet, the phone or the Bell Centre box office. The Bell Centre and evenko strongly advise against buying tickets from resellers or from a third party.

Purchase from a third party – Ticket resale / “Scalping”

The Bell Centre and evenko strongly advise against buying tickets from an unauthorized reseller. We only guarantee the validity of tickets that are purchased at the official box offices or from authorized vendors (e.g. some fan clubs will sell tickets and/or VIP packages themselves). It’s impossible for us to determine the validity of a ticket purchased from an unauthorized reseller (street resellers [“scalpers”], classified ad websites) before the event. The validity will be confirmed at the door, at the moment of the event.

Partially obstructed view – Limited view – side of the stage – back of the stage

We indicate that seats offer a “partially obstructed view” or a “limited view” when a technical object could be blocking part of the stage. We can’t guarantee the view you will have of the stage.

Group purchase

To get information about the possibility of buying 12 tickets or more, we invite you to contact the Group Sales service at 1-866-365-7469 or [email protected] or https://evenko.ca/en/groupsales. Please note that some events don’t offer group sales.

Where is the Lost & Found?
