    ----------------------------

    When do tickets go on sale?
    Reserved seats for the 2012 AFL season at the MCG will be available from the following dates: 
    • Club members priority period: Tuesday February 28, 2012.
    • Public: Tuesday March 6, 2012.
    • MCC members' visitor tickets and reserved seats: Wednesday February 29, 2012.

    ----------------------------

    Will my seat be located undercover?
    It is difficult to accurately classify any seats at the MCG as "undercover" because even though there is a roof overhead in some sections of the ground, patrons cannot be guaranteed protection from the elements.

    As a guide however, please refer the table on the following page which outlines where the drip line for each level lies.

    ----------------------------

    I have a standing room ticket, how early do I need to arrive at the ground so I can see the match?
    It is in your best interest to arrive as early as possible to guarantee a position in the front. Positions in standing room bays are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

    ----------------------------

    Can I bring a stool/walking stool on wheels/cushion/portable chair to sit on while I am in the standing room bay?
    No, these items are not permitted in standing room bays. 

    ----------------------------

    How many other people will be in the standing room bay as me?
    Standing room bays vary in capacities and thus it is dependent on which bay you have a ticket for. All bays have been measured according to building codes and standards.

    ----------------------------

    What will my view of the ground be like with a restricted view ticket?
    It depends on where your ticket is. However, most restricted view tickets allow for a majority of the playing surface to be seen and a scoreboard.
