For the 2022 Toyota AFL Grand Final, the number of tickets available for Club members to purchase is less than the total number of members we have. Sydney Swans in conjunction with the AFL, endeavour to provide a fair system for members wishing to purchase tickets through the use of a ballot ticketing system.
UPDATE: The 2022 Toyota Grand Final Ballot Registrations are now closed. For those who are successful in securing tickets via the ballot will be notified by Ticketek should the Sydney Swans qualify.
HOW TO REGISTER FOR THE 2022 TOYOTA AFL GRAND FINAL
To register for a Grand Final ticket you will need your membership barcode number and any barcode number of members you wish to attend with. Members who wish to attend together must register in a group providing all membership barcode numbers in one transaction, using one credit card. A limit of eight (8) barcodes per transaction applies. Each member barcode will be charged a $3.50 non-refundable fee at time of registration to cover administration costs.
Members will be required to register for Grand Final tickets via the internet (by logging onto ticketek.com.au). Please ensure you have a My Ticketek Account before registering. If you don’t already have an account, we recommend logging onto ticketek.com.au and selecting ‘My Ticketek’ to create an account at least 24 hours prior to registration.

WHAT DOES THE PRIORITY GROUP MEAN AND HOW DOES IT WORK IN THE BALLOT?
Each Sydney Swans membership type is categorized into three priority groups. Across the registration process and ballot allocation process, the groups will be worked through in order One, Two then Three.
PRIORITY ONE – GUARANTEED*
Premiership Club, SCG Premium and Life Members
Registration Time – 8am-11am on allocated day.
* Any Premiership Club, SCG Premium or Life Member who do not register in the designated time frame or instead elect to register within the Priority Two or Priority Three time frame will have waived their right to a guaranteed ticket. It does not matter what time you register during the designated timeframe as all registrations will be randomised to determine the order in which tickets will be allocated.
At the time of registration, members can elect not to receive Standing Room ticket(s), however we strongly recommend all members select Option 1 – ‘I will accept the best available ticket – including Standing Room’ at the time of registering to retain guaranteed (P1) access to a Grand Final ticket.
PRIORITY TWO – BALLOT
Platinum 11, Gold 11, Red Zone 11, Swans Pass, VIC AFL Platinum, VIC Ultimate, VIC Flexi
Registration Time – 12noon - 4pm on allocated day.
Any Platinum 11, Gold 11, Red Zone 11, Swans Pass, VIC AFL Platinum, VIC Ultimate, VIC Flexi who do not register in the designated time frame or instead elect to register with Priority Three members will have waived their right to the Priority Two ballot.
At the time of registration, members can elect not to receive Standing Room ticket(s), however we strongly recommend all members select Option 1 – ‘I will accept the best available ticket – including Standing Room’ at the time of registering. You will reduce your chance of being successful in obtaining a Grand Final ticket if you elect not to receive a Standing Room ticket at time of registration.
PRIORITY THREE – BALLOT
Membership Types – Red 5, Red 3, Interstate Memberships, Supporter Memberships, Mini Memberships, Accor Stadium Memberships, AFL Silver and Bronze Club of Support Memberships.

REGISTRATION OPTIONS
The following ticket options will be provided for members to select when registering:
I will accept the next best available ticket – including Standing Room
Members can receive Category 1-7 seating, Restricted View or Standing Room ticket. These will be allocated on the next best available basis.
I will accept the next best available reserved seat – no Standing Room
Members can receive a Category 1-7 or Restricted View reserved seating only. Members will not be allocated a Standing Room ticket.
Tickets will be allocated via ballot on a next best available basis, and therefore members can receive a Category 1-7 Reserved Seat, Restricted View Seat or Standing Room ticket. If you select option 2 and all reserved seat tickets have been allocated when your registration is next to be processed, you will not be issued a Grand Final Ticket.
REGISTRATION PROCEDURE INFORMATION
Members who have a medical requirement for access to mobility impaired ticketing or who hold a companion card do not register via the ballot as outlined above. These Members must complete a special registration form and return to swansmembership@sydneyswans.com.au by 12noon Monday September 5, 2022. Late registrations cannot be accepted. Members that are currently recorded by the club as either mobility impaired or Companion Card holders will find this form enclosed with this information.

There is a maximum of eight (8) tickets per transaction and members should be aware that registrations with more than one ticket are ‘one in all in’ or ‘one out all out’; group registrations will not be split.
If Sydney Swans has qualified for the 2022 Toyota AFL Grand Final and members were successful in the ballot, the member who provided the credit card details during the ballot registration period must ensure they have sufficient funds available on their credit card in order to complete payment for the transaction based on the prices below. It is each member’s responsibility to ensure they have sufficient funds to cover the range of ticket prices in addition to the $3.50 non-refundable registration fee per barcode registered. Tickets will be allocated via ballot on a next best available basis, and therefore members can receive a Category 1-7 Reserved Seat, Restricted View seat or Standing Room* ticket (*depending on which ticket option was chosen during the registration process). The credit card holder should have enough funds to potentially pay for Category 1 tickets for all members registered in the transaction.
