*If you have upgraded to a reserved seat via the ticket agent for any game, you must use that ticket to access the venue, and not your mobile membership card.

GETTING TO THE GAME

Limited parking will be available on game days due to the redevelopment of Marvel Stadium and we recommend that you arrive a little earlier to ensure you have plenty of time to get into the venue. It is recommended to pre-book your parking via Ticketmaster or Marvel Stadium website here to ensure you have a space. 

Please plan your game-day journey well in advance and utilise public transport as much as possible.

If you encounter any issues accessing the venue, member services will be available to assist in the guest services hub outside Gate 2, and at the Essendon membership marquee outside Gate 7.
