Explore Brampton Youth Pass
Youth ages 12 to 16 years old are invited to apply for the Explore Brampton Youth Pass for an opportunity to access free Transit services and Recreation drop-in programs during the summer.
Returning this year, 2,000 Explore Brampton Youth Passes will be made available to qualifying applicants. Pass holders will have free access to Brampton Transit services and Recreation drop-in programs including swimming, skating, and select sports from July 1 to September 4, 2023.
Priority will be given to vulnerable youth, through the Active Assist program, the Region of Peel’s Affordable Transit Program, the Region of Peel’s (ROP) Neighbourhood Information Tool, referrals from school guidance counsellors, and via youth serving providers and outreach. Applications are now being accepted online.
Eligibility
Brampton residents born between September 5, 2006 and September 4, 2011 are eligible to apply.
Please note that proof of Brampton residence, age and a photo of the individual are required to apply.
Youth accepted into the program will be asked to complete a brief optional survey at the end of the program. Youth accepted into the program will need to watch a brief orientation video and visit select Recreation centres to pick up their pass.
Using the Explore Brampton Youth Pass
Passes provide free access to select drop-in programs at Brampton recreation centres and free access to Brampton Transit services. Each time a pass holder wants to ride Transit or participate in a drop-in program, they are required to present their pass. Each pass holder receives a unique pass with their photo. Passes cannot be shared. Youth Passes are not transferrable. The photo of the applicant is required solely to ensure that the Youth Pass is not transferred. Any improper transferring to a third party of the Youth Pass can result in the Pass being forfeited immediately.
