Kids go free to the footy for round 21

AFL tickets will be free for all kids aged 14 years and under for Round 21 in Victoria.

Round 21 kicks off on Thursday 31 July and kicks off the final month of the home-and-away season. The round includes five blockbuster matches across Melbourne and Geelong.

Kicking off on Thursday night, the Western Bulldogs host GWS Giants at Marvel Stadium, which will also welcome Melbourne and West Coast on Saturday afternoon.

A rematch of the 2023 Grand Final takes centre stage at the MCG on Saturday night as Collingwood takes on the Brisbane Lions.

On the Sunday, the Saints and Kangaroos meet at Marvel Stadium and Geelong Cats face Port Adelaide at GMHBA Stadium.

This year’s Kids Go Free round builds on the success of the initiatives debut last year. More than 6,000 kids got to see their teams play in Melbourne, Geelong and Ballarat thanks to last year’s Kids Go Free round – more than a quarter of the total general admission tickets for that round.
