Kids Kombo

The Kids Kombo program enhances the Kids Up Front event experience for kids when they attend a sporting event, concert or other activity at a Northlands venue.

Northlands has a commitment to delivering exceptional experiences, and the new Kids Kombo is just one more enhancement to Kids Up Front activities at Northlands venues. The Kombo lets kids enjoy a hot dog or nachos or popcorn plus a pop; the little extra’s that make their event experience all the more memorable.

Currently, Kombos is only available for concert, sporting and other events at Northlands venues like Rexall Place. In 2007, more than two thousand Northlands experiences were delivered thanks to our ticket donors. The goal is to expand these extras to other activities and other facilities in the future.

Northlands is kicking off the new program with a donation of one hundred Kids Kombos! If you are donating concert, hockey or lacrosse tickets, consider adding a Kids Kombo to your ticket donation for only $15 extra. Your donation qualifies for a charitable tax receipt and $5 is reinvested into The Kids Up Front Foundation to support the delivery of our ticket program.
