Need to Know: Reserved Bay

In 2026, the choice is yours! Your membership comes with access to Richmond Member Rewards, a platform where you can choose and design your own 2026 membership pack! To find out more, click here.

Please note, 2026 Richmond Member Rewards will launch from mid-November for existing members (for memberships purchased from September 1 until November). If you purchase a membership prior to November, please keep an eye on your emails around this time.

Yes! In 2026, we are giving Reserved Bay members the option to again choose either a barcoded physical membership card, or a digital membership card. More information is available, HERE.

Reserved Bay members can purchase guest passes, subject to availability, by entering their barcode via Ticketek. More information will be communicated in the lead up to the 2026 season.

In consultation with the MCG and AFL, from time to time, for matches with high demand it is deemed necessary to fully ticket to ensure the safety of members and fans at the ground, and to ensure as many Club supporters can attend the game as possible.

This is not done to maximise revenue, it is done for your safety; to prevent a game from reaching a lock out where you’re turned away at the gates; to ensure General Admission members can access a seat and sit with friends or family; and to prioritise getting as many Club members in the ground as possible.

For Fully-ticketed home games, Reserve Bay members may need to redeem a ticket to ensure their seat.

If fully ticketed matches were not chosen, there could be scenarios where our members are locked out of the game due to an overflow of general public and members in the general admission area.

ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR
All Members and Guests are expected to abide by the Members Code of Conduct (Richmond FC | Code of Conduct) and can expect that those around them would do so as well. In the event that behaviour falls outside of these expectations, the Club encourages its Members to report any anti-social behaviour through the following channels:

A. MCG - SMS the Section, Row and Seat along with the behaviour witnessed to 0409 117 621;

B. Marvel Stadium – SMS the Aisle, Row and Seat/s along with the behaviour witnessed to 0427 767 768; If you feel your report through the above channels has not received appropriate action, please see a stadium attendant or security person to escalate your concerns.

The Club is best placed to respond to behaviour concerns with a written report from Stadium Security after attending any reported incidents. This allows for a positive ID to be made and the Club to take proper and accurate action.

NON-MEMBERS IN MY RESERVED MEMBER AREA
Reserved bay members can purchase guest tickets subject to availability. Richmond continually stresses the importance of stadium attendants checking every ticket of patrons entering reserved areas, however from time-to-time other patrons may sneak into reserved Richmond areas without a valid ticket.

Members are encouraged to report unauthorised patrons in their bay in person to a stadium attendant, and via the Anti-Social Behviour text line if required. Stadium staff can re-check tickets of patrons in reserved bays and move them on if not in the correct area.
