"Legacy on Ice" benefit show in D.C. (March 2, 2025) and ways to help those affected by the air tragedy over the Potomac River

Debbie S said:
I'm not familiar with this rink, but are there sections/seating areas other than the ones marked Silver or VIP on the map? There are some outlines on each end of something, but not clear if those are actual seats. Silver and VIP may be the only options, unless sales are going slowly and they decide to lower the price of some of the seats in the Silver section.

The arena is pretty gnarly. Very steep, with hard benches.

Caveat: Above I had copied and pasted from the Legacy website (which has not been fixed), but ... June 2 is actually on Monday.

I now see that Legacy's Instagram post today says:
"Public on-sale begins Tuesday, June 3rd — and based on what we’ve seen so far, they won’t last long."

The two types of tickets (details explained at the link above) are:
$275 for "VIP Experience"
$120 for "Silver Level"

So I see now in FAQ: "Legacy Silver Seating — premium general admission with priority placement over standard seating"
Which I guess would imply that a third type of ticket will be for "standard seating"?? Maybe??​

The ZIP code is wrong on the home page and tickets page. The correct ZIP is 19104, not 19114.

Apparently, there are "Password-protected tickets." "Click show-password protected tickets above to access pre-sale discount $20 silver medal tickets." https://www.legacyonice.com/show-2

And, I mean, this is just garbage:
  • Premium reserved seating in the center section (assigned at check-in by purchase time)
  • Access to the Pre-Show VIP Reception
  • Post-Show Meet & Greet with featured skaters
  • Autographed commemorative program
  • VIP credential and lanyard
  • Membership in the Legacy on Ice Club (exclusive merch offers + updates)
"Access to" the reception and "merch offers." Gimme a break. This is a cash grab.
 
We've been to this rink once for a show with Johnny Weir, Ashley Wagner, & some other nationally known skaters circa 2010/2011? The rink is quite small. We are waiting to see the situation for general admission tickets & their availability when they actually go on sale to the general public.

As only a layperson (definitely not a lawyer), I wonder whether "portion" is just normal legalese for this type of fundraiser?

It's interesting wording.

I put on events that raise money for charity. One of them is owned by a non-profit and we donate all proceeds to charity. And say so. The others are put on by my company, which is for-profit. For those, I do say "a portion of the proceeds." This is because I want my business to be profitable, especially because the smaller events lose money so the larger events have to pay for them. But also I say "portion" because I want to have some wiggle room.

Bottom line: A major purpose of the first event is to raise money for charity. But raising money for charity is more of a side quest for the others, hence "portion" vs "all."

So I am surprised by this wording. Perhaps it is a legalese thing and my other event should use it too, but we don't plan to. Saying "all" helps us get more and better sponsorships and donations, too.
 
Tickets to gala performances in the arts do it all the time, if not in that language: for example, if you pay for a gala ticket, it will say that the gala ticket price less the regular cost of the ticket is tax-deductible*. If you pay $10K for a table of 8 at the gala dinner, it will say [table price - cost of 8 tickets at regular price - cost of dinner for 8] is tax-deductible*.

*with the usual caveat that your tax situation may vary, but that is how much $$$ is going to the cause.

Most organizations express it in terms of X% of profits go to Y Cause, or all the profits from the book/tomato sauce go to the ABC Foundation, but I've also seen $Z of every ticket sold or $A of every skein of yarn/pattern sold will go to B Cause, which is a contract even if they lose money or break even.

Thanks for the info on the presale. I DM'ed the IG account and they mentioned a presale but no code or further info.

ETA : Code isn't working. Is it correct or is there a problem on their end as usual?
