How can you get a ticket to the Toyota AFL Grand Final?

There are only two ways to secure a ticket to the Toyota AFL Grand Final:
  1. Be an eligible member of one of the two competing clubs and obtain a ticket through that club’s ballot. If you are a Priority 1 member, you are effectively guaranteed a GF ticket if the club is competing. 

  2. Purchase a hospitality package that includes a ticket (available to anyone).

     

Option 1: Club Member Ballot

Because demand for Grand Final tickets is extremely high, the AFL uses a ballot system (random draw) to give eligible members a fair chance.

How does the ballot work?

  • Demand for Grand Final tickets is huge, so the AFL uses a ballot (random draw) to give eligible members a fair chance.
  • If the West Coast Eagles progress through finals, eligible members can register for the ballot.
  • Registration happens before the Preliminary Final. If the Eagles win the Prelim, the ballot runs the next day, and allocates GF tickets based on registrations
  • Eligible members will be given windows of time in which to register, based on their priority group
  • Each competing club gets about 16,000 tickets, but there are more members than tickets—so not everyone who registers will get one.
  • Tickets are allocated randomly, within priority groups, not by registration order. This means no long queues; it's not a first-in, best-dressed situation.

Who can register?

Priority Groups
  • Priority 1:
    • Club 87, Blue & Gold Terrace, A Reserve, Victorian Platinum, Victorian Captain’s Club
    • There are fewer Priority 1 members than tickets, so if you register correctly, you’re guaranteed a ticket (but not a specific seat type).
  • Priority 2:
    • B, C, D, E Reserve, Victorian Gold, Interstate members
    • There are more Priority 2 members than tickets, so some will miss out.
  • Not eligible:
    • Flexi members, In The Wings, and other non-access members.
       

Option 2: Hospitality Packages

Anyone can purchase a package that includes a Grand Final ticket and hospitality. Availability and pricing vary. Check official AFL channels for details.
