The Melbourne Cricket Club is excited to welcome you back into the Members’ Reserve for the 2021 AFL Premiership Season.
As we operate under our Victorian Government endorsed COVIDSafe Event Plan, your visit to the Members’ Reserve may look different this AFL season.
Please note, members must pre-book a ticket to games of the 2021 AFL Premiership Season they wish to attend. There will be no walk-up opportunity for members.
Due to the capacity restrictions in the Members’ Reserve, all MCG event days have been categorised* according to the expected demand from members and their guests. These categories determine access that Full, Restricted and Provisional members have to the Reserve, as well as the ability for all categories of members to purchase visitor tickets and access dining facilities.
Match category |
Access entitlements |
3 |
Allows for Full and Restricted members access along with the ability to purchase up to four visitor tickets. Provisional members are permitted access with the ability to purchase up to two visitor tickets. Annual Guest Card holders are also permitted access. |
