Tickets for accessible seating can be purchased directly through our ticketing provider for individuals requiring wheelchair access, companion card holders, or those needing ease of access. All events accept companion cards.

On event days, a limited number of free accessible parking spaces are available on Stadium Drive (east side of the venue) for holders of Australian Disability Parking Permits (purple/blue).
Please note that parking for red Queensland Disability Parking Permits is not available due to limited space.
Accessible parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Ensure your permit is displayed at all times, as spot checks will be conducted to confirm that permit holders are traveling in the vehicle.
Please note: Vehicles parked in accessible spaces will have restricted movement approximately 30-40 minutes before the end of an event until up to 45 minutes after the event. This is to ensure safe egress of patrons and will be enforced by the Queensland Police Service.
