Your booking confirmation will include a four-digit gate code which you can then enter on the keypad at the gate. It is always useful to have your booking confirmation handy for inspection purposes.

The gate access code is provided within your confirmation email. Please check the junk folder of the email account provided when you signed up.
Alternatively, please log into your ClubSpark account and check your bookings where you will see the details of your booking, alongside the gate access code.

What do I do if my gate code doesn't work?
