The majority of matches at the Crown Oil Arena are a mixture of ticket and cash admissions. Separate turnstiles apply to Adults, Concessions and juniors but the club recognises that some adults may wish to have their children go through the same turnstile, to accommodate this club requests that the adult purchases a ticket for their child from the ticket office.
∗ YOUNG PERSONS (21 & UNDER) MUST PROVIDE PHOTOGRAPHIC ID AT THE TURNSTILES, WHICH INCLUDES THEIR DATE OF BIRTH (i.e. passport, full or provisional driving licence). ROCHDALE AFC DO NOT OFFER STUDENT CONCESSIONS.
Rochdale AFC strongly recommends that anyone who may appear to look older than they actually are carries photographic ID, which also contains their date of birth in order to claim a discount, this advice is particularly relevant to ALL TEENAGERS.
Where the club offers a concessionary price, the club reserves the right to request proof of age and it is the responsibility of the person claiming the concessionary price to provide the required proof, if adequate proof is not provided when requested the full admission price will be charged.
