Essendon members have until noon today to purchase the remainder of the 10,000 seats made available to them on a priority access basis for this Friday night's match against the Western Bulldogs.

Late yesterday more than 6000 tickets were still available for Essendon members with the majority of those premium C seats.

If Essendon members haven't snapped up the remaining tickets by noon today they will be made available to the general public.

The 10,000 tickets were made available to Essendon members under a deal negotiated between the club and Colonial Stadium management.

The deal is in place for away games at Colonial Stadium of which Essendon have two. The first is this Friday night and the second is its round 11 clash with Essendon on Saturday night, May 20.

Members are advised to make the most of the tickets offered on a priority access basis to ensure they are not disappointed.

"There are still tickets available for the general public but we would expect the demand will grow significantly late in the week," Essendon chief executive Peter Jackson said.

"Given this, we urge Essendon members to take advantage of this priority access period a reserve one of the seats made available exclusively to them until noon today."
