Buying Tickets Early Gets You the Best Seats
As the new March season approaches, fans will begin to buy up the best AFL tickets. Sure, there might be AFL tickets still available a few days before any given match. However, the best solution to get great seats is to buy your tickets early.
There are a number of stadium grounds across Australia that play host to AFL matches. If you get your favourite fan a set of AFL tickets, consider seats at the oldest stadium. The Melbourne Cricket Ground is the oldest venue and is also the host site for the Grand Final.
Four AFL teams play their matches at the MCG. However, Docklands Stadium plays host to the most squads, five in all. One of the more unique venues is the Adelaide Oval. Adelaide and Port Adelaide play their home matches at The Oval. Imagine the elation opening an envelope with a ticket to an AFL match at every one of these footy grounds.
Make the most of your day
When you already have your AFL tickets months before the first game, you can plan your day ahead of time. Knowing you won’t have to wait in line to get a ticket for the big match, you can relax or enjoy a pregame dinner.
If you really want to throw a surprise in your gift, include a trip to Jiangwan Stadium in Shanghai. Beginning in 2018, St. Kilda and Port Adelaide will play a three-year series at this historic stadium. There is nothing like a weekend away in Shanghai to go with your gift of AFL tickets.
