Melbourne reserved seat holders from 2024 have until Friday, 1st November 2024 to renew their same reserved seats for 2025. After this date, all reserved seats that have not been renewed will be released for general sale and it cannot be guaranteed that you will be able to obtain the same seat from the 2024 season.
1. Seating areas at the MCG are subject to change. These changes are made upon consultation with the venue. The Club will endeavour to advise members of any changes.
2. To minimise the number of vacant seats in the stadium, Melbourne Football Club reserves the right to move a member two seats to the left or right within the same row without contacting the member concerned.
Absentee Memberships are available as an option for members who wish to continue their consecutive years of membership. Please contact Membership Services on (03) 9652 1155 for further information.
The Premium Members’ areas in the Olympic and Shane Warne Stands are the best place to watch Melbourne home games. These guidelines are designed to ensure everyone enjoys their day at the football.
1. Seating
All members are asked to sit in their reserved seats/reserved area as indicated on their mobile membership. Please note that memberships are not transferable, and only the member indicated on the mobile membership is to sit in the reserved seat.
2. Guest Passes
Premium Member Guest passes can be purchased by Premium Members for each home game at the MCG. Guest passes allow the bearer access to sections P1, P2, P3 and P4 in the Shane Warne Stand. If the Premium Member wishes to sit with their guests on the day, they must accompany them to the guest bays. Guest Passes do not allow the guest to sit in the Premium Member reserved seat areas. If you are unsure of where to sit, ask one of the friendly MCG staff. Guest passes also allow the guest to accompany the member into the Premium Member social rooms in the Shane Warne Stand.
3. Be respectful of others
Premium Member areas are family friendly areas, and members and guests are expected to act accordingly. Please be mindful of using bad language. There are young children sitting near you, so don’t use language that you wouldn’t want your own children to hear. Anti-social behaviour and violence will not be tolerated in the Premium member areas. If you witness such behaviour, please send an SMS to MCG Security on 0409 117 621.
4. Food and Dining
Access to the Hassett and Ryder Rooms is available at home games for all Premium Members and guests (with guest passes). These rooms are family friendly areas where members and guests can mingle together, and are available for members to purchase food and beverages before, during and after home games. These rooms are hosted by volunteers Mike Anderson and Ralph Crapper, who are available to assist you on game day and ensure that you enjoy the experience.
5. Opposition Supporters
Opposition supporters are welcome as guests of Premium Members in the Guest Bays and the Hassett and Ryder rooms. We ask that these supporters respect the area to ensure that an enjoyable day is had by all.
Week 1 Qualifying / Elimination Finals; Week 2 – Semi Finals; Week 3 – Preliminary Finals.
Melbourne Football Club match-access members are given priority access (over non-members) to purchase a ticket to finals during the first three weeks of the finals series*.
AFL Finals matches are administered by the AFL with the core advantage to Melbourne Football Club members being a priority access period for the opportunity to purchase a ticket to the game* before the general public. The priority access period is also extended to members of the other competing club.
Neither the Club nor its members have the same rights as they receive for the Home and Away games – 2025 reserved seat members will be unable to retain their annual reserved seat for the finals series.
To be eligible for finals tickets you must join as a member before 31 August 2025. Note: These arrangements are subject to change.
*subject to participation
The sale of AFL Grand Final tickets is administered and managed by the AFL.
All 2024 Grand Final Guarantee holders must renew their Grand Final Guarantees by Friday 1st November 2024.

Tickets will be made available to Melbourne Football Club members on a priority basis depending on the membership type held.*
