How to request a seat change
You can only request a seat change during the membership renewal period, and this request can only be submitted once per season.
Steps:
- Submit your request. Complete the Seat Change & Upgrade registration form. This will be emailed to all Reserved Seat members in September. Didn’t receive the email? Please contact us via membership@wce.com.au
- Renew your membership. You must renew your Reserved Seat membership by the due date listed on your invoice to be eligible.
- Wait for your seat change window. After registrations close and your payment is processed, you’ll receive an email with your allocated seat change window. These are based on membership tenure.
- Access the Virtual Venue. On the day your window opens, you’ll be invited to access our Virtual Venue via email. This platform allows you to explore available seats and make changes based on availability. If you’re moving in a group across multiple accounts, the nominated person will need to call or visit the membership team to discuss seat change options. The virtual venue is unable to facilitate moving multiple accounts together.
What happens after you submit your request?
You’ll be sent a confirmation email to confirm you have registered for a seat change. Seat changes are subject to availability.
Please note:
- The club would like to reiterate that members who wish to change seats must renew their existing reserved seat membership by the listed due date on your invoice, in order to be eligible for a change.
- The ability for members to change seats is based on existing Reserved Seat members relinquishing their seats; the ability to change is not guaranteed.
- As Reserved Seat memberships are filled to capacity each season, and we do not often see large sets of seats become available.
- If no suitable seats are available, your current seat will remain unchanged.
