FAQS

A member of one of our Reciprocal Clubs may obtain a Reciprocal Guest Pass which will allow you to access the unreserved seating in the Pavilion and Members' Friends' Enclosures for selected match days, within a single 28-day period per year. On the days a Reciprocal Guest can access the Ground using their Guest Pass, they do not need to purchase a ticket for themselves.
Unfortunately, we do not have any reciprocal arrangements in the off season. The reciprocal arrangements we offer are specifically related to attending selected match days during the season between April and September.
Rover Tickets can be purchased for Reciprocal Guests to bring guests with them to a match day. A Rover Ticket allows the ticket holder to sit in the unreserved seating sections of Members' Friends' Enclosures.
No guests are permitted in the Pavilion before close of play during Men's International Matches. Reciprocal Guests can introduce guests (over the age of twelve) into the Pavilion on certain Domestic and Recreational match days. The limit for guests depends on the match day, so please check with Club Services if this is something you would like to do. Guests need to be dressed according to the Pavilion Dress Regulations which can be found here.
All Reciprocal Guest Passes must be collected by the Reciprocal Guest. Should your application be successful, Club Services will provide you with the instructions on how to collect your pass.
Reciprocal Guest Passes can only be collected by the pass holder themselves. When collecting their pass, we ask that Reciprocal Guests bring some form of ID with them.
For International match days, the Members' Friends' Enclosures are the Warner, Tavern and the Lower Tier of the Allen Stand. For Domestic and Recreational match days, certain areas of the stands mentioned above may be allocated as general public areas.
Unfortunately, Reciprocal Guests are not able to access the Ground on non-match days, other than collecting their Guest Pass from Club Services.
