the times as specified below.
Members who experience difficulties with registering barcodes are advised to contact Membership Services immediately on 1300 GO CATS

** If registering via internet please ensure you have or create a My Ticketek account at least 24 hours prior.

Should Geelong Cats qualify for a Preliminary Final through any of the listed scenarios, registration times on the applicable day will be:

Priority Group 1: Premiership members & full social club members register between 8am–11am
Any Priority Group 1 members who do not register in the designated timeframe or instead elect to register within the Priority Group 2 timeframe will have
waived their right to a guaranteed ticket. At the time of registration, Priority Group 1 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 access to an AFL Grand Final ticket.

Priority Group 2: all other eliglbe members register between 12noon–9pm
Priority Group 2 tickets will be allocated via the ballot after registrations of Priority Group 1 have been fulfilled. You will significantly reduce your chance
of being successful in obtaining an AFL Grand Final ticket if you elect not to receive a standing room ticket(s) at the time of registration. Please note if
you fail to register within the Priority Group 2 timeframe then your access to the ballot is waived.
