Lions Tour 2025

[Braveheart81]

No emails from Ticketek yet but judging by the eye-watering charge that appeared on my credit card a couple of days ago, I was successful in the Lions Tour ballot for the Sydney test.

Anyone else apply and did you get tickets?

 

[Pfitzy]

Decided to do the Tahs game instead so no ballot for Pfitzy. Plus I spend enoug time in online queue bullshit - I've got a teenage daughter who is costing me the GDP of a small pacific nation in concert tickets this summer and next.

Still jealous tho. I went to the 2013 edition which was pretty awesome. My brother - an AFL supporter - said afterwards "This must be what soccer at Wembley is like" after all the singing and chanting etc. He was impressed.

There was no online queue for this. You could enter the ballot based on Super Rugby membership. You selected the tickets you want (up to 2 per membership) and then if successful your credit card gets charged over the three days of the ballot.

Where's the thrill of the chase?

Yeah, my level of support wasn't enough to go in the ballot - just do a three game flexi, so I'm just going to have to join hoi polloi and try to get a ticket, however exorbitant for a nose bleed section seat

Yep got tickets for Brisbane through the ballot as well.. thank fuck… although the $$ was hefty

One aspect I really liked when entering the ballot is it seemed almost impossible to find out what the ticket prices were at that point.

There's no ballot for the MCG right? I remember buying mine last year sometime

There was a limited release for the tests last year with some reserved for a ballot. Pretty sure there should still be a ballot for every test though.

There was a ballot for all tests (you could pick which test you wanted to enter the ballot for).

It was open to 2025 Super Rugby members. Now where's the grimacing face emoji...

 

[Dctarget]

still no news for who's playing the Lions in Melbourne.

Can we do a Rebels dream team? Get back Quade, Genia, McMahon, Leota, Wilkin, Hodge, Marika, Hosea, Philip, Maddocks, Uelese.

Tickets to Melbourne via my new MCC Membership. Whole family is going.

 

[Highlander35]

The old man organised ours, believe we've got all 3 Tests plus the Melbourne Midweek.

 

[drewprint]

Everyone it seems won bloody ballot tickets except me. Ergh.

What a trip. Is he Aus based?

Yeah he is. Will be great. Originally I was just going to join in for the Melbourne games and the Sydney Tests like I did with him in 2013, as his brothers had planned to come out and do the whole shebang, but they've pulled out for personal reasons, so I benefit.

Actually can I put it out there please: if any forumers has, or knows of someone with, either:

2 or 3 spare tickets to the Brisbane test
or
2 spare tickets to the Sydney test

Can you kindly shoot me a message? I’d love to snap them up if possible! Having rotten luck buying some direct so far.

Scratch this. The old man didn’t read his emails correctly - we have tickets for the Brisbane test. Yahoo!

edit: would still probably take two tickets for Sydney though if they happen to pop up.

They did the public release today, and then promptly moved it to the 7th of November lol
