The Melbourne Football Club is committed to delivering an inclusive, accessible match day experience that can be enjoyed by all.
The below information details some of the key accessibility services and facilities that can be utilised by football fans at Melbourne's MCG home games.
The 'G Train
The 'G Train is a free shuttle service for patrons with accessible needs on MCG event days.
The service is free and pre-booking is not required; simply wait at a designated pick up point for the next available buggy. The service has pick up points from Richmond Station, Jolimont Station and selected parking paddocks in Yarra Park.

The MCG's Sensory Friendly Space, presented by the MCC Foundation
Located in the Australian Sports Museum on Level 1 of the MCG (inside gate 3 behind bay M51), the Sensory Friendly Space has been designed to provide patrons with a quiet, safe and supported place to retreat and recharge away from the stress and stimulation of live events.

The Hidden Disabilities Sunflower
The Melbourne Cricket Club (MCC), as ground managers of the MCG, are supporters of the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower. All MCC staff working at the MCG have been trained to recognise the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower in order to provide appropriate assistance to people living with disabilities that are not immediately obvious. Hidden disabilities can include autism, mental health conditions, visual impairments and deafness, among others.
