TORONTO, July 15, 2025 /CNW/ - Ready to crank up the volume on convenience? Skip, Canada's homegrown delivery network, is helping Canadians skip to the best part of the summer season with Skip+, its exclusive membership program. This summer, Skip+ members can unlock VIP access to the hottest live events of the season, creating unforgettable moments and core summer memories along the way.
With Canada's long-awaited summer season back in full swing, so is our love for live entertainment, warm summer evenings and making the most of every moment. That's why this summer, Skip+ is helping Canadians Skip to the good part, ensuring summer is nothing short of sweet and memorable.
In partnership with Live Nation Canada, Skip+ members can enjoy exclusive perks at some of the season's hottest concerts at Toronto's most iconic outdoor venue, Budweiser Stage, from July through September.
Some of the key benefits include:
- Fast-Track Entry: Skip past the main crowd and glide through the Skip+ lane at Budweiser Stage gates.
- VIP Merch Access: Hit the merch stands via the exclusive Skip+ queue so you can snag limited-edition tees before they sell out.

As a sponsor of Canada's largest music and arts festival, OSHEAGA, Skip is offering up benefits to Skip+ members in attendance. During OSHEAGA weekend (August 1-3), Skip+ members get the wheel deal: a fast pass lane to skip the line and ride the Ferris wheel. Additionally, Skip+ members can enjoy exclusive access to the Skip+ RESTroom, a members-only space with perks including:
- Private Perks: Freshen up in your own private bathroom or grab a drink at the exclusive Skip+ bar
- Glow-Up Station: Hit the mirror-equipped service stops for hair touch-ups, face mists, and a splash of body glitter
- Chill Zone: Lounge under shady umbrellas or sink into free-standing hammocks and beanbags between sets
And those are just a few ways that Skip is bringing the ultimate convenience to this season's live events. Skip is also raising the curtain at another Canadian summer highlight: the Great Outdoors Comedy Festival (GOCF), Canada's open-air tour of world-class comedians. Skip+ turns the Great Outdoors Comedy Festival (GOCF), into your personal VIP experience. In Edmonton, Winnipeg, Halifax, Calgary, and Vancouver, some of the key member benefits include:
