CRICKET MATCHES AT LORD'S

Full Members of MCC have the right to be admitted, without charge, to Lord's, the Pavilion and the Members' Friends' Enclosures (the Allen, Tavern and Warner stands) for all cricket matches plays at Lord's.

This includes international match days - though for 2026, Members have approved Special Regulations for the ICC Women's T20 World Cup.

Full Members are also able to purchase tickets for guests to attend matches and to introduce guests to the Pavilion on certain match days (non-major match days and some major match days such as for the Vitality Blast and The Hundred)

RIGHTS & PRIVILEGES

There are numerous benefits to being a Full Member of MCC, with access to all the rights and privileges of MCC membership. In addition to rights related to attending cricket matches at Lord's, these rights and privileges include, but are not limited to:

  • Early access to Public Stand tickets.
  • Exclusive access to private entertainment facilities via the Members' Suite Ballot.
  • The right to participate in the Club's Real Tennis, Squash, Golf, Bridge, Chess and Backgammon activities.
  • Voting rights at General Meetings.
  • The right to serve on the Club's committees and sub-committees.
  • The right to nominate Candidates for the waiting list.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


Upon your election, you will be required to pay your 2026 Annual subscription and the balance of your Full Member Entrance Fee. The Entrance Fee is only payable in the first year as a Full Member. For following years, you only need to pay your annual subscription.

For example, if your name was placed on the list of Inner Town Members, with the subscription of £715, and the balance of your Full Member Entrance Fee is £1,054, the total amount you will have to pay is £1,769.

There is no means within the Club Rules to defer your offer of membership. If you choose to not accept this offer of membership, your name will be removed from the waiting list and you will not receive another offer of membership in the future. 

Not necessarily. Your supporters can be any Full (or Senior) Member who has known you for at least three years. Supporters are contacted by email in the first instance, so we recommend advising your supporters as such. 


Match Days

Full Members need only show their red Membership Pass to gain entry to the Ground and Pavilion on any match day.
 

Non-Match Days

On non-match days, as an MCC Member, you and your guests are welcome to come to Lord's, subject to Ground Closure (within opening hours). We ask that all Members make an enquiry via the online form below to avoid disappointment in the case of pre-booked functions which may limit ground access.

Benefits of your membership on non-match days:

  • Access to the Pavilion for you and up to four guests

  • Complimentary tea and coffee in the Bowlers' Bar on Monday-Friday, subject to availability based on pre-booked functions (also operates as an honesty bar)

  • Free entry into the MCC Museum for you and your guests

  • Access to the Library for you and your guests without making an appointment

  • MCC Shop will open on request

  • Booking the Lord's Tennis Court and Squash Courts

  • Free access to any public Lord's Tour. Please inform the Tours Office in advance.

  • 10% off your food bill in Lord's Tavern

For Major Matches (e.g. Test Matches, ODIs) Members are able to purchase Rover tickets for their guests to sit in the Members’ Friends’ Enclosures, namely the Warner, Allen & Tavern Stands.

Guests are only permitted into the Pavilion on certain match days and numbers are limited by the Special Regulations confirmed by the Membership & General Purposes committee each year.

Full Members have the right to attend all match days at Lord’s. The only exception to this may be events run by the ICC such as World Cups or the World Test Championship.  Member attendance for these events will be confirmed in ahead of the start of the season.
