Humanitix has become the first ticket agency in the UK to offer a climate donation as a standard part of the check out process. Working in partnership with onboard:earth, the Climate Levy Donation gives event attendees a simple way to directly address the environmental impacts associated with travel to events, 22 September, 2026

Audiences are increasingly becoming more concerned about their impact on the planet – especially as travel to live events typically causes 60-80% of the total carbon footprint. Adding a Climate Levy Donation to each ticket gives event hosts an easy way to make a difference and engage the whole audience in protecting the planet.
Humanitix has made the process of adding the Climate Levy to their event set-up straightforward, with a range of donation amounts suggested according to the scale of the event. Event hosts can unite their audiences to take action and demonstrate their own values by sending a clear message: protecting our planet is not optional. When every guest contributes, the collective action adds up to real, measurable impact.
onboard:earth’s Project Director, Sarah Moore, comments:
“Humanitix has developed an impactful pathway to help live events protect and restore our natural world with the Climate Levy – helping event hosts to make it standard practice that the environmental impacts of event travel are addressed at point of purchase. At onboard:earth, we are so excited about helping events to share the positive impacts for communities, forests and seas, thanks to these collective donations.’ .”
Every Climate Levy Donation is channelled to onboard:earth’s Canopy & Coast program, funding high‑impact environmental restoration and climate justice projects around the world: preserving threatened rainforest, restoring marine ecosystems on the UK coastline, planting trees in areas of the world hardest hit by climate change and in the UK through local community planting projects.
Event hosts can view their own impact metrics on the Humanitix platform, making it easy to report with confidence to their audience on the number of trees planted, acres of rainforest protected and areas of marine ecosystem restored after every event. Plus, the human stories about the communities leading these projects, provide powerful content to share with audiences throughout the year.
The UK General Manager at Humanitix, Harry Cole, comments:
“onboard:earth’s mission aligns directly with Humanitix’s belief that events can be an incredible catalyst for social change and that includes climate action. We are delighted to be offering the Climate Levy to amplify impact for nature restoration.”
