Guest Access
Share your love of the game with friends and family. Members have the opportunity purchase a Transferable Associate Card (subject to availability) and/or Daily Guest Passes (for eligible matches) throughout the season, providing the user entry into the Adelaide Oval and SACA Members’ Area.
Transferable Associate Cards (season-long guest pass)
As an exclusive benefit of Membership, Full, Country, Junior and Reserved Seat Members have the opportunity to purchase a Transferable Associate Card during the renewal period, granting guest access to the venue and the SACA Members’ Area at Adelaide Oval and Karen Rolton Oval for the 2025/26 cricket season. Reserved Seat Members also have the option to upgrade a Reserved Seat Transferable Associate Card (subject to availability).
To prioritise Members’ access to cricket at Adelaide Oval over that of guests, there is a limit on the total number of Transferable Associate Cards available each season. Members who secured a Transferable Associate Card last year will receive priority access to purchase one this season, and Members who secure a Transferable Associate Card this year will receive priority for next season.
SACA Big Bash Members do not have the option to purchase a Transferable Associate Card but have the opportunity to purchase Daily Guest Passes for Adelaide Strikers matches only.

Daily Guest Passes
For Full, Country, Junior and Reserved Seat Members, Daily Members’ Area Guest Passes will be available for the Men’s One Day International, the Women’s T20 International, Adelaide Strikers matches and domestic matches at Adelaide Oval. While Guest Passes are typically available for pre-purchase for Day 4 of the Test Match, this year presents a unique scenario with Day 4 falling on a Saturday, which is expected to draw high attendance in the Members’ Area. Instead, Members were given an exclusive opportunity to purchase public area tickets for family and friends during the international matches’ priority pre-sale.
SACA Big Bash Members are entitled to purchased Daily Guest Passes for Adelaide Strikers matches.
Daily Guest Passes for the 2025/26 season will be available to purchase from Thursday, 18 September 2025 via Ticketek.
