MCC and VicRoads unveil exclusive number plates
The Melbourne Cricket Club has partnered with VicRoads to release custom MCC number plates, available exclusively to members.
The plates are part of a limited-edition merchandise offering, providing members with a unique way to represent their connection to the Club beyond the Reserve.
Developed in partnership with VicRoads, MCC number plates feature a navy background, white lettering, red detailing and the MCC logo as the separator.
Each plate includes a three-digit number on the left, followed by MCC on the right (for example, 123.MCC), with the initial release comprising plates from the 000-299 series.
This limited release will be offered via ballot, opening 9:00am AEDT Tuesday March 17 and closing 5:00pm AEDT Wednesday March 25. The plates are available to all financial members with a Victorian licence and a registered vehicle in Victoria. Eligible members may register for multiple plate combinations during the ballot period.
Plates allocated via the ballot will cost $1,995 plus GST. Successful members will be notified by the end of March and will have five calendar days to complete payment.
Several select combinations, including 000-009, will be reserved for auction and offered separately. An auction will take place at a later date, with further details to come.
