Sydney Swans fans will continue to enjoy having public transport included in their ticketing through until at least 2025, in a move that has extended the offering to anyone with a valid ticket, club, or stadium membership.
Minister for Sport Alister Henskens has announced public transport is now included in all match-day tickets at both the SCG and Allianz Stadium, saying the move will help fans get to and from both venues seamlessly.
“There is truly nothing better than a live event experience, and to help provide greater access to two of Sydney’s premier stadiums is an outstanding result,” Mr Henskens said.
Minister for Transport David Elliott said public transport is the best way to get to the Moore Park area with frequent light rail, train and buses servicing the precinct.
“Whether you’re a cricket, football, AFL, league or rugby fan, or off to see Elton John at Allianz Stadium in the New Year, we’ve got you covered as you won’t need to tap on and off with your Opal or contactless card, you just need to carry a copy of your event ticket.”
The inclusion of public transport has been made possible thanks to the NSW Government and the Moore Park sports teams and bodies including the Sydney Swans, NSW Waratahs, Sydney FC, Sydney Roosters, Sydney Sixers, Football Australia, Cricket Australia and Rugby Australia.
Travel on public transport to the precinct is covered on match-days only for patrons with a valid ticket.
