Choose Mobile Tickets for:

Mobile Tickets are digital passes that can be stored within Apple Wallet or Google Pay on your smartphone or smartwatch.

Mobile Tickets use NFC technology and can be used for contactless entry into both the Etihad Stadium and Academy Stadium by holding your device above the reader at the turnstile.

Models supported are; the original Apple Watch and later, all Face ID iPhones and all Touch ID iPhones except 5s.

Supporters who do not have NFC technology on their device will be able to use their barcode on the mobile ticket to enter the Stadium.
