   In the event any Ticket Access Instant Rewards allocated to an earlier Instant Reward opportunity are unredeemed, any unredeemed Ticket Access Instant Rewards will be added to the next subsequent Instant Reward opportunity. Should any unredeemed Ticket Access Instant Rewards or related inventory remain at the conclusion of the final Instant Reward opportunity, Sponsor may elect to run additional rounds of this Promotion to distribute all remaining inventory, or reallocate the remaining inventory to another promotion as permitted under the Global Citizen Loyalty Program in Global Citizen’s sole discretion. 

4. Here’s How to Claim a Ticket Access Instant Reward: Participation subject to Global Citizen Loyalty Program Terms & Conditions.

   1. You may find the total points required to be eligible to redeem a Ticket Access Instant Reward on the App while supplies allocated to the Instant Reward opportunity remain available.
   2. During the Promotion Period, log in to the App with your Global Citizen User ID and password, and follow the instructions to instantly redeem one (1) Ticket Access Code, as defined below, (the “Ticket Access Instant Reward”). Points required for redemption will automatically be deducted from your account point balance. Limit one Ticket Access Instant Reward redemption per person per Instant Reward opportunity. Ticket Access Instant Rewards are available on a first-come, first-served basis and will end when the quantity allocated to that Instant Reward opportunity is depleted or on the deadline date for the applicable Instant Reward opportunity, whichever comes first. Submission of a redemption request does not guarantee receipt of a Ticket Access Code unless and until the App confirms that your redemption has been successfully completed. 
   3. If redeemer elects to exercise a Ticket Access Code and make a charitable donation to secure Event ticket(s) (as defined below), redeemer must do so within forty-eight (48) hours by following the steps in the “How to Exercise a Ticket Access Code on Ticketmaster” section below. 
   4. All point redemptions are final and cannot be reversed, regardless of whether or not the redeemer elects to utilize their Ticket Access Code to purchase Event ticket(s).
5. Ticket Access Instant Reward:

   An initial 2,500 Ticket Access Instant Rewards will be made available for redemption during the Promotion Period, while supplies last. Each Ticket Access Instant Rewards shall consist of a single “Ticket Access Code”, meaning a unique promotional code that provides an eligible user who successfully redeems a Ticket Access Instant Reward, subject to these Terms & Conditions and applicable Ticketmaster terms, the opportunity to obtain up to two (2)  General Admission tickets (or as otherwise set forth on the Ticket Access Instant Reward entry page) to the 2026 Global Citizen Festival in New York City on September 26, 2026 (the “Event”) by completing the applicable Ticketmaster redemption process and making a charitable payment of USD $25.00 per ticket selected, plus applicable ticketing platform fees. The specific amount of Event ticket(s) redeemable per Ticket Access Code will be specified on the Ticketmaster page upon redemption. The charitable payments made to Ticketmaster in connection with Ticket Access Code redemptions will benefit the City Parks Foundation and other applicable charitable beneficiaries. Applicable ticketing platform fees are separate from the charitable payment.

   Redeemers are under no obligation to exercise their Ticket Access Code or make any charitable payment. A redeemer who elects to exercise a Ticket Access Code must complete the applicable Ticketmaster redemption process in order to obtain a ticket to the Event. A Ticket Access Code is not itself a Festival ticket, has no cash value, is nontransferable, and does not provide admission to the Event unless and until the redeemer timely completes the applicable redemption process through Ticketmaster. Ticket Access Codes will expire forty-eight (48) hours after the user receives their Ticket Access Codes. 

   Sponsor has designated a limited quantity of Event ticket inventory to support the exercise of Ticket Access Codes issued through this Ticket Access Instant Reward promotion. Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, make additional Ticket Access Codes available during the Promotion Period if sufficient designated Event ticket inventory remains available after accounting for all outstanding, redeemed, and unexpired Ticket Access Codes. In no event will Sponsor issue Ticket Access Codes that, together with previously issued, redeemed, and unexpired Ticket Access Codes, could permit redeemers to obtain more Event tickets than the Event ticket inventory then designated by Sponsor for this promotion. 
   Sponsor may reduce the quantity of Event ticket inventory designated to support future Ticket Access Code redemptions and reallocate such inventory to other Global Citizen Festival programs or promotions, provided that any such reallocation will not affect the ability of a Redeemer holding a valid, outstanding and unexpired Ticket Access Code to exercise that Code in accordance with these Terms & Conditions.

   
   NO TRANSPORTATION OR ACCOMMODATIONS INCLUDED. Limit one (1) Instant Reward Prize per person per Instant Reward opportunity.
6. How to Exercise a Ticket Access Code on Ticketmaster:
   If a Ticket Access Instant Reward redeemer elects to exercise their Ticket Access Code via Ticketmaster, redeemer should follow these steps:
   1. Once the Ticket Access Instant Reward redeemer receives their Ticket Access Code, the redeemer visits the designated Ticketmaster page.
   2. Redeemers can then select if they want to make a charitable donation for each available ticket to the Event.
   3. Redeemer makes the USD $25-per-ticket charitable donation, plus any separate applicable platform processing fees.
   4. Redeemer completes the transaction in accordance with Ticketmaster’s terms and conditions.
   5. Event ticket(s) are issued through Ticketmaster.
   6. Failure to redeem a Ticket Access Code within forty-eight (48) hours of your receipt of the Ticket Access Code results in forfeiture of the opportunity to to secure Event ticket(s) through said Ticket Access Code.
