How to find family event deals in Australia

For family outings, the best savings come from three places: limited-time Lasttix deals on TIX for theatre, musicals, circus, magic and Christmas shows; family and group ticket types sold by the official ticket seller; and member programs such as motoring clubs or the Entertainment membership for attractions. TIX lists current family offers and sends you to the official seller to book.

How to make a family outing cheaper

  • Pick weekday or matinee sessions during the school holidays.
  • Compare the family ticket with buying adult and child tickets separately – bundles aren't always cheaper.
  • Check what's included: programs, photos and premium seating can add to the cost.
  • Subscribe to TIX to hear about new family deals, including school-holiday and Christmas shows. It's free, usually 2 to 4 emails a week, and easy to unsubscribe.

Frequently asked questions

What discount ticket services work best for Australian family events?

For live family shows – theatre, musicals, circus, magic and Christmas events – TIX lists current Lasttix deals from promoters and venues across Australia and sends you to the official seller to book. For theme parks and attractions, motoring club discounts and the Entertainment membership are often better value.

Are family tickets cheaper than buying separately?

Often, but not always. Many ticket sellers offer family bundles (for example 2 adults and 2 children) on eligible events. Compare the family price with individual adult and child prices, and check whether a Lasttix deal on TIX beats both.

How can I find cheap school holiday activities?

Choose weekday and matinee sessions, check TIX for limited-time deals on family shows, and see what your local council, library or venues offer – many run free or low-cost school-holiday programs.

Can I use a Companion Card for family shows?

Many Australian venues accept the Companion Card, but companion bookings are handled by each venue's ticket seller. Check the seller's website or call the box office before booking to confirm how companion tickets are issued.

Does TIX sell family show tickets?

No. TIX is a discovery and deals platform, not a ticket seller or reseller. When you choose an offer on TIX, you're sent to the event's official ticket seller to book, so the ticket is genuine and the offer is applied at checkout.
