For over 40 years, Steppenwolf has proudly hosted the Veterans' Night Series. Made possible by the generosity of the Gary Sinise Foundation, this series has provided tickets at no cost to over 800 veterans each year. In the 2023/2024 season, we are excited to expand our offerings by adding activities like pre-show talks, backstage tours, and partner fairs to each performance.
If you are a veteran who has served or is currently serving in the United States Armed Forces, we thank you for your service to our country. To learn more about Steppenwolf’s Veterans’ Night Series or to find out how your organization can attend as a Community Partner, please contact Rae Taylor at rtaylor@steppenwolf.org.
