TICKETING AND MEMBERSHIP INFO
Tickets are available via Ticketek and on gameday outside gates one and three. Limited reserved seats remain available, and all General Admission areas are on level four, or level one Standing Room.
Essendon members have two ways to access the game on Saturday.
Members' physical membership card has a barcode that will allow members to scan entry at the turnstiles, however if members are yet to receive their card or prefer the convenience of using a mobile device, simply log in to the official Essendon app using your membership details to access the mobile membership.
More information on how to use your mobile membership can be found here.
All members without reserved seats can upgrade to a seat through Ticketmaster and use the ticket in your Ticketmaster account to get into the ground. Members can upgrade using this link.
If you’re not a member, it’s not too late to sign up for 2025. Simply signup/renew online and then login to the Essendon FC app to access your ticket. Further information on member benefits can be found here.
Need assistance? Our friendly membership team will be available from 5:30pm at the Ticket Booth outside gate 3.
GETTING THERE
There will only be limited disabled parking options at the ‘G on Saturday, so we recommend looking at alternative transportation methods. The stadium is only a short walk from both Jolimont and Richmond Stations.
