As SMASH! con grows and changes every year, we get the golden question: How much do tickets cost? 🤔

Our early bird tickets which were $50 AUD have offer has ended unfortunately! But there are general sales happening right now which is $55 AUD for a Weekend pass and our Saturday or Sunday only pass will be $40 AUD each.

Please note that there will be a handling fee of 2% at checkout. This is to secure your ticket and would be able to pass on other areas of the convention and limit the large amount of completely free content that SMASH! Has to offer

REMEMBER! 2022 SMASH! Tickets were sold out last year! So get your hands on the tickets soon!! 👀

Due to venue capacity limits imposed by NSW Health, Weekend and Saturday Pre-sale Tickets will be paused until further notice. This also means that until these restrictions are lightened or lifted completely, tickets on-the-day will also be put on pause.

Despite the current conditions experienced in Sydney, we’ve still got our hopes up for the situation to clear up by late October 🤞. So in the meantime, you can still grab a Sunday Ticket at tickets.smash.org.au . Better get in quick before we reach capacity for Sunday! 🤭

We’ll let you all know as soon as possible when Pre-sale Weekend & Saturday Tickets sales resume again! Keep an eye out on our social media: Facebook | Instagram | Twitter or sign up to our email list.
