Tickets On Sale for Rounds 1–5 (https://www.westernbulldogs.com.au/news/1069708/tickets-on-sale-for-rounds-1-5)

Tickets for the Western Bulldogs’ first five rounds of the 2022 Toyota AFL Premiership Season will officially go on sale today for members and fans.

Unlike 2021, reserved seat & general admission members won’t be required to redeem a seat via Ticketmaster for home games and therefore do not need to participate in the Rounds 1-5 member on sale from Tuesday 1 March. Members will be able to scan into Marvel Stadium using their digital membership card.

General Admission members can enter their member barcode online and upgrade to a reserved seat if they wish. These members will receive priority access before the public on-sale.

Pay as You Go (PAYG) members, can redeem tickets for both Rounds 2 & 3 in the home club member on sale window from Tuesday 1 March at 11am using their membership barcode.

Membership barcodes were sent to members who hold this product on Friday 25 February via e-mail and will be sent again via SMS on Tuesday 29 March.

Tickets will go on sale to the public on Wednesday 2 March at 10am.

Access to Away Games Melbourne & Round 5 v North

Members with away game entitlements will have access to these games by scanning into the MCG or Marvel Stadium on the match day, using their digital membership card in the Western Bulldogs app.

If you wish to upgrade from general admission to a reserved seat, you will need to do so via the ticketing agent and their away member barcode. An SMS was sent to eligible members on Monday 28 February.

Upgrades for Rd 1 v Melbourne at the MCG will be available via Ticketek on Tuesday 1 March at 2pm, with General Public tickets available from Wednesday 2 March at 10am.

[bornadog]

NOTE - You can book rounds 1 through to 5 - members don't need to for the home games - use your digital pass.

I just booked rounds 1, 4 and 5 as I don't have away membership.

Bought tickets for rounds 1-5 - honestly cant wait. Demons game the lid is coming off!

Fark me AFL - 2 years of paying for my membership for buggar all games only to be slogged with a 25% increase in seat reservation - for games i need to reserve a seat for.

And whilst Gil is “in talks with putting a team in tassie. Its like Bezos passing the 1% card processing increase onto customers whilst he's literally flying into space!

Anyone able to fill me in, if I want to bring a non-member with me but use my membership for my ticket, is that possible with this new app setup they're going with?

I presume you don't have a reserved seat, therefore you will need to go through ticketmaster (Marvel), or Ticketek (MCG) to get a ticket. I guess you can then order an extra ticket there. Members dates are announced before the games. Rounds 1 to 5 are available now for.

By the sounds of the PR spin the AFL has put on ticket prices it sounds like it’s cheaper to take a family of 4 than to add a non member to your ticket

i have home and away members ticket. Re Richmond game, when i look at dogs allocation & gen seating that there is only a couple of hundred tickets left. Could this be right?? #doing my head in

If your a social club member will that come up as well on our digital card.

[Mofra]

My social club membership isn't showing up, and I'm a gold member yet can't upgrade my ticket to level 2.
After years of calling (every year for 4-5 years) including last week they have finally got my name right on the system now

[Axe Man]

I assume the social club will actually be open this season? I haven't seen any communication from the club. Does the physical card say social club member? I can't recall and don't have it on me.

[Mofra]

I also didn't get a choice of what to receive, nor did I receive any physical membership package. I would have chosen the $20 voucher if given the option

[Grantysghost]

That is not great. My wife chose the beanie over the cap and got neither ! Plus they've had her name spelt wrong for ages (which appears on the web site of the player you sponsor) and it's still not fixed after multiple requests.

As part of our package we are supposed to get a framed signed picture of the player also, nothing from last year I've enquired a heap it's always yeah yeah it's coming. Couple that with the fact I'm essentially behind the goals/in a pocket and not on a wing now (with little communication) it's death by 1000 cuts considering what else I'm hearing on here.

Let's hope they take the feedback on board and right the ship for the future, the Covid credits are running out.

[bornadog]

I assume the social club will actually be open this season? I haven't seen any communication from the club. Does the physical card say social club member? I can't recall and don't have it on me.

I received some sort of small metal badge and a round badge made of material with Social Club written on it. Do I use these?

On another note, I use to buy a family membership which gave me two juniors and two adults. I only have one daughter so I put down my wife's nephew down as the other junior. When they hit 18, ten years ago, I changed the membership and said nephew would have to pay his own - which I think he never took up.

Three weeks ago, I got a notification that membership pack is on it's way, however, I had already received all my membership packs.
What arrived was an envelope, with my name on it, and inside was a sticker and Lanyon, nothing else, and was sent to my nephew's PO Box in Rushworth???? (He lives near Rushworth)

I thought we could just log into our WB app in the membership section and show the GA QR code in there to get into the game. Then I saw this on the WB FB page:

First AFL home game for 2022! �� Don’t forget to redeem your ticket when we take on Carlton at Marvel Stadium.

Anyone know what that means? Do we have to do something else before turning up? Just saw it and membership dept. closed for the day :/

[Mofra]

Managed to upgrade my ticket via the Ticketmaster app. Shame you don't get to choose which section you sit in. I refreshed a bunch of times just to get the bay I wanted

No you are correct, just scan your QR code from the app.

You can just log in to the app, go membership->my digital card login to your bulldogs account and select the game.

It will generate a ticket for the game with a qr code you scan which has an associated barcode number (this is different for each game) . My guess is that's what they mean by redeem but call them to be sure.

You can also choose to download the ticket to your device (apple wallet, gpay for Android).

So yes you just scan in but you need to generate / redeem a ticket in the app.

[cinder]

Thank you. Not sure why they had to put that in the FB post then.

If you have GA or reserved seat just use QR code on your phone, if you want to upgrade to a seat you need to get that thru tic mast with the barcode on the BD app in "ticket details"

[cinder]

I did all of that and now it is showing me a GA ticket and barcode, when I normally have reserved seats.

Edit; I just realised I have two tickets on my digital ticket? One for GA and one for my seat.

That's a new one. Scalp it! I'm not sure why you'd have two.

I spent ages trying to work out mine last night. I have to go through another 3rd party app called spinzo (more accounts) to register for my seat (this is just for player sponsors don't panic anyone else).

I had to redeem a ticket, get the barcode, sign up to spinzo, enter the barcode, select a seat then register.

There's no way to see what seat you picked either through spinzo so I have nfi what I picked. Had to do that x2 for my wife as well.

This is better though right xD

Yes you can.

The last few years, when we could go to to games, I have been going to the bar on the 2nd level, opposite side of Medallion club. You need to show your social club membership to get in. Of course you need access to level two as well.

Great, thanks. Won't have access to level 2 but might try the level 1 social club bar depending on how early we get there.

Not sure what I am supposed to do with mine. I click on the "Download on the App Store" (Apple) button in the email. It takes me to some file to download named pass-(some numbers).pkpass. I can download it but then not sure how to add to wallet?

[Axe Man]

I don't think I have ever been into the social club despite having that type of membership for at least 10 years. Can you go in before the game?

Back when it was open we would usually go before the game if we got there early enough. Can sit down for a meal if you like and obviously there's the bar. Normally they would have a couple of players that weren't in the senior team speak but with Covid rules that isn't allowed at the moment unfortunately.

[cinder]

Another one for the brains trust. Marvel Stadium phone number doesn't take calls anymore (only email, which I have sent) and WB membership line now says to call back later.

If you park underneath at Marvel, can you go straight up to level 3 and sit in GA? Last year on the couple of occasions we did this, they made us exit onto Level 1, walk half way around the ground to another gate and then enter. Really annoying. Probably no one has any idea but just though I would ask.

Edit: Thank you for contacting the Western Bulldogs Membership Department. We are currently experiencing a high volume of emails and will look to respond to you within 3-4 business days.

I would plan to do the same as last year, I doubt it has changed.

Their website actually says the lifts won't be in use due to Covid (they weren't last year but this year reckon it'll be back to normal).

I did actually get a reply from Marvel: "You will be able to access level 3 from the Car park and will just need to show event staff at the doors your tickets before proceeding up."

Thanks BAD.

[cinder]

Further info from Marvel:

"We’ve just been advised that the Eastern side of Level 3 will be closed. Due to this, I would suggest entering through the A or B (Bourke Street) as General Admission seating will be on this side of the stadium for level 3 (Gate 8/9). General Admission for Level 3 will be located across aisles 4-21."

EDIT: then got sent:
My sincere apologies for the confusion. Please ignore my previous email and only refer to the original reply as the information was intended for a different match.

Any car park entry point will be fine as General Admission is located across all aisles on Level 3.
