Wellington City Mission is selling tickets to an event no one can attend.

The charity is trying to sell out symbolic seats to Silent Night at Sky Stadium where 100 percent of sales go to people doing it tough.

Tickets range from $10, to corporate box packages to cater for all who want to give.

Wellington City Missioner Murray Eldridge told Kate Hawkesby it's an ambitious idea, but believes it'll help those in need.

He says people are struggling with the most basic costs.
