Fully ticketed games

A 'fully ticketed' game is one where all patrons must hold a reserved seat, i.e. there is no general admission (GA) access.

Any Home & Away season match may be classed as fully ticketed at the discretion of the home team, stadium, and AFL. This decision is based primarily on ticket sales and Member attendance forecasts, and is made to ensure patron safety when large crowds are expected.

If a game is classed as fully ticketed, the Club will communicate this to Members with GA access at the earliest possible time.

When this happens, Members with GA access to the game in question must upgrade to a discounted reserved seat if they wish to attend.

As general advice, the Club strongly recommends that Members with GA access upgrade to a discounted reserved seat for any blockbuster game, even if that game has not yet been classed as fully ticketed.

General admission access is always subject to capacity.

Membership barcode numbers are added to accounts prior to any ticketing window.

Once added to your account, Members with need of their barcode number(s) in-season can find them in their MyMagpies account here.

If other Members are linked to your MyMagpies account, you can also find their barcode number(s) by using the 'switch accounts' function.

Prices vary depending on the location of seats you are purchasing, and the game in question.

Broadly speaking, upgraded tickets range from $10 to $50.

All pricing categories are subject to capacity.

Members with general admission (GA) access do not need to upgrade for games that have not been classed as fully ticketed.

That said, the Club strongly recommends upgrading GA access to a discounted reserved seat for games against large Victorian clubs, as these games tend to become fully ticketed due to strong ticket sales.

For games that are not fully ticketed, Members with GA access can simply use their Mobile Membership to access matches without pre-booking. For a guide to using Mobile Memberships, click here. Season ticket Members can also use their physical cards to access non-fully ticketed games.

The Club will always endeavour to notify our Members when a match is likely to be classed as fully ticketed, but please not it is not always possible to do so given the nature of ticket sales.

If you require accessible ticketing, you will need to follow the process of the relevant ticketing agent, i.e. Ticketek for MCG games and Ticketmaster for Marvel Stadium games.
