How do I access my ticket?
2025 Members with AFL game access memberships will need to book a ticket via Ticketek using the unique, single use barcode emailed by the club.
Please contact PAFC Member Services on (08) 8447 9900 or membership@pafc.com.au if you did not receive your email with your unique barcode(s).
Alternatively, you can view your barcode number here.
I haven't renewed my membership, can I access the Member pre-sale?
No. Only 2025 AFL Game Access Members will have access to the member pre-sale and member pricing.
To receive a Gather Round barcode you will need to renew your membership. There may be a 48 hour delay between renewing and receiving your barcode. We recommend renewing by Friday 6 December to guarantee you have your barcode before the on sale date.
Can I purchase extra tickets for non-members?
No, during the Member pre-sale members will only be able to access tickets with a unique barcode. Barcodes can only be used once and additional guest tickets are not available.
One ticket can be redeemed per barcode up to the transaction limit of 10 tickets.
If members would like to purchase additional tickets you will need to wait until the the general public on-sale. The barcode will be valid in the member priority redemption window and in the general public on-sale, with tickets subject to availability.
Is Gather Round part of my 2025 membership entitlements and benefits?
No, access to Gather Round is an additional benefit outside of individual 2025 membership packages. Redemption of a ticket for Gather Round does not impact existing membership inclusions for game access members.
I have a Reserved Seat membership; can I access my same seat?
To ensure equal access to tickets for both competing teams, all access barcodes for Gather Round do not take into account any Member's entitlements, except for if they have game access or not. As a result, there is no link between your Gather Round seating and your normal membership seating category.
I normally have access to the Western Stand; will I be allocated a ticket in this area?
No, the Western Stand will not be a restricted area. Therefore, members can redeem/purchase a ticket from any of the available sections.
Can I purchase tickets to other games as part of Gather Round?
Yes, members have the option to purchase multi match passes for games at Adelaide Oval or access tickets to other games through the General Public on-sale.
How many tickets can I purchase?
Up to 10 tickets can be redeemed or purchased in one transaction.
Where can I buy Accessible Seating tickets?
Wheelchair and carer tickets will be charged the applicable price of the bay it is positioned in. In some circumstances the AFL and the Venue may adjust some of these to ensure there are wheelchair and carer positions available in every price category.
