Is anybody able to get past the Accept Terms and conditions in the login? I must be doing something wrong?
 
S
False alarm. It worked on the 6th attempt. What a crock
Yes, you have to agree to do both Lions & Ticketmaster.
Also think you have to actually scroll down the agreements to the end and then agree.
Either way i knew the procedure from a few weeks ago and i still had to do it a few times to get in.

I would have thought just the once a year would be enough
 
The club would know how many Melbourne games the Lions have in 2026.



Today's email informs me that my Loyalty discount is a big $12.16. That's better than nothing though.

Yep you’re prob spot on there, know how many games just don’t know the fixture.

I’m not sure I’ve ever had a ‘loyalty discount’, at least not that I’ve seen on my account. That’s with continuous membership + Sept member from when it came in, plus membership for the 8yo from when he was born.

I had to send the Lions something and received this automatic reply.

For anyone thinking there is a waiting list for priority 1 membership or upgrade this confirms there is not.

I think they’re talking about different things - first being P1 (sold out) and there isn’t a wait list for general membership? A blank line after the P1 info would have been a good idea?

Actually i think it is about P1. I got my mate to call the club to see if/when handed back P1’s would be released.
They told him they’re fully sold out, there is no waitlist, and if any become available an email would go out to all P2 members.

Not worded great, at least IMO.

Yep, my mate was told the same today. Membership called him to see if he was going to renew.

He wants to drop back to a P2 membership with September Membership.

He was a September Member in his old seat, but moved sections two seasons ago, keeping his September membership. But last season, when the club changed the seating categories, his seat automatically came with P1 access (plus a hefty price rise). Now he wants to move sections and retain his September membership, but the club has told him he lost his September membership when they changed the seating categories.

He's more than a bit p!ssed atm.

Upgrading the majority of Prime seating to Deluxe this year was a cash grab for the club and not everyone was happy.
Can't blame the club really when demand is so high. Take some flak from members and move on.
Deluxe seating is all P1 as its included.

There would/are quite a lot of people sitting in Deluxe seats that did not want September Membership.
In reality they could not move, as pretty much everything else was sold. So nowhere to go in 2025 and now 2026.

Regarding your mate.
There are only so many available P1 seats. It looks like the Lions are staying at their P1 limit thankfully.

As a simple example:
Let's say the Lions P1 seat number limit is 10,000 and according to the club all are sold.
Now let's say there are a few seats that became available to move to, for your mate and partner.
That reduces the 10K available down to 9,998.
I will guarantee you that those two Deluxe seats they vacated will be sold, bringing it back to that 10,000 limit.
This is why the club can't give your mate a September "add on" when moving down from Deluxe seating.
There is none available to give.

Your mate may be pissed atm, but i doubt there would have been any other suitable seating available to move to anyhow.

Members can put in a seat move request
However, moving is reliant (for season 2025 and now season 26) on who does not renew their membership.
More than likely the club rings you back and says nothing available where you wanted and they offer you a few vacant seat numbers that have become available because they were not renewed. They are likely to be not great seats anyhow.

From what you say it is good to know the club are following up on members that have not renewed to give them a chance to reconsider before that 4th Dec (i think) deadline.
After that date the club will release all available seats again.
I imagine they will go quickly, except for those hard to sell single seats.

Rang the club yesterday. Apparently bar codes are getting sent out today for 2026 members. Tickets on sale for gather round tomorrow
Geez, they (?the club) left it a bit late to send the info and barcode out - got my email at 11:02am this morning and club member tickets for Gather Round go on sale tomorrow at 9:30am EST!

And still confused whether unreserved grandstand seats at Barossa will be $30 or $60 - getting conflicting info from email and Ticketek.
 
Hey gents, just renewed today. Anywhere to check for the barcode? Or am I a sitting duck.
