Hello All

You, like me, will be very interested in getting tickets for the game.

I have been a Legends Lounge member for sometime ... reserved seats for home and away games ... not cheap, but very convenient.

my question, though, as i haven't had to book tickets for years ... is there a way, within the ticketek system, to book the tickets you would normally sit in with your reserved membership? Do you automatically get allocated your seat?

Looking forward to taking the old man to a final. will actually be his first final that he can attend, in nearly 25 years of membership ... let that sink in blues fans. its been a long time between drinks.

Every member with match entitlements gets access to the same tickets for finals.

You don't get your regular seat, you have to log on when they go on sale and select tickets then.

So you can sit with someone who's a GA member if you're a Legends Lounge member for example.

Unfortunately no. Ticketing is a free for all. If you don’t already have a Ticketek account you should set one up before the tickets go on sale. Everyone gets online at 10am and then you wait in a queue until you get the opportunity to put your barcodes in, select the stand you want or best available and then see what the system has allocated to you. There’s a time limit, so if you decide to try for different seats you need to be quick otherwise you will run out of time & need to start again. The whole experience can be quite stressful especially if demand for tickets is high and if the Ticketek system has a melt down.

It's an absolute disgrace that captains club members don't get a priority window to access tickets over GA members!

I believe you'll get access to category 1 and 2 tickets that GA members don't? :?:
It seems Legends club members do-

As a Legends Lounge member, you will have priority access to premium seating in Categories 1 and 2 at the MCG. From 10am AEST Wednesday 30 August, click below and use your 12-digit barcode number(s).

Anyone know the differences between Category 1 through to 7 for ticket prices?
Cat 1 is $96 for adults and goes all way down to $35 for Cat 7?

It looks like AFL members have a slightly larger allocation than H&A season?

Is that just for the Grand Final or is that all finals?

Agree.
Captains club members get no priority over someone who has a 3 game membership.
Only advantage is Grand final.

My hubby and daughter are Collingwood legends members. They had no priority either today.
My son wanted tickets but is not a member. I logged on just before 3pm and was in a waiting room for several minutes.
By 3.05 I had 4 tickets for him and his friends. By 4pm it was sold out
I am working tomorrow until lunch time so my daughter has offered to get the tickets as she is working from home.
She had no trouble this morning so hopefully there are no issues tomorrow.

That is interesting. I got my son tickets for Collingwood are they are in Q14 but are general public tickets. Maybe that section is half AFL members and half public.
