Ticket of the Year

‘Ticket of the Year’: it’s up to you

Across the globe voting in Ticketmaster’s ‘Ticket of the Year’ is underway, and it’s time for you to have your say – what was the best New Zealand event you went to in the last 12 months?

2018 was a year jampacked with entertainment – from world-class music performances to theatre that made us laugh and cry, and sporting events that had us on the edge of our seats. It’s hard to sum it all up.

Now it’s time to sift through your memory bank and select your ‘Ticket of the Year’ – that’s right we want to know the very best event you saw this year. The much-anticipated vote will take place on Ticketmaster New Zealand’s official website from Monday 5 November until Sunday 11 November.

All live music, theatre productions, sporting events, festivals, and shows that took place throughout 2018 are in the running. As well as looking back on the last 12 months, ‘Ticket of the Year’ will also find out what your most anticipated event of 2019 is. The results will be announced on Tuesday 27 November.
