Reviews for Higher Mark at GMHBA Stadium
Angela Pyke
We visited as members of an interstate team. We were very impressed with the modern stadium. Great what they can do with the lights after goals etc. Seats were comfortable. Toilets were clean. Oh and the donuts were amazing. And our team won!
Jessa Mae Venuto
Decent sized stadium that feels modern and has great food options and great lighting for night games. Have been a few times and when entering and leaving haven’t had no issues as there are plenty of exits from any area seating. Would be great if they had MORE parking available. Great place to see a home game for Geelong Cats 🐱🤍💙
John Savopoulos
Great place to view AFL, especially when the Cats get the win! The redevelopment of the ground is outstanding and topped off by the new Selwood stand. Night games there have a great atmosphere.

Fantastic cafe, great food at a good price. One of the best coffees around. Awesome seating area where you can look straight into the Geelong Cats Club room. We like to get there early when they just open on a day where the players rock up for work as they're always in the cafe getting their morning caffeine fix. Lovely atmosphere and lovely cafe staff. Go Cats....

Venue itself was great but the food was a big letdown, $22 for 4 tiny chicken nibbles and chips and $6 for out of date Pepsi. 😒
