The Fremantle Dockers will take on North Melbourne this Saturday 25 March at Optus Stadium in our first home game of the 2023 Toyota AFL Premiership Season. Bounce down for the clash is at 4.30pm WST.
GETTING TO OPTUS STADIUM
Your footy ticket includes travel on all Transperth services for three hours either side of the match, so be prepared and ensure you plan your journey ahead with Transperth’s Journey Planner, please click here for further information. If asked, show your ticket to the driver or inspector. Keep in mind, you must have your football ticket or membership on you to travel for no extra cost.
For the safety of all patrons, we encourage all attendees to ensure they are well aware of the above points, prior to attending the game. If you have a family or linked account, please pass this information on to all attending.
CHANGES TO OPTUS STADIUM CUP SERVING
In October last year, the WA Government officially banned the use of plastic cups as part of its Plan for Plastics. That means that all drinks will now be served in a 100 per cent recoverable, plastic-free, paper cup.
Look out for the QR code on the cup so you can learn about the new cups, the impact on the environment and which bin you should put the cup in when you’re done. If you want to learn more about the change, please click here.
