AAMI Park Forecourt Entertainment

Head to the Federation University activation to pick up a free City 2023/24 team poster, visit the player signing zone and take part in the speed test.

We’re also giving you an exclusive opportunity to take a photo with the 2022/23 A-League Men’s Premiers Plate.

Don’t forget to grab your Paramount Plus City Clappers on the way in from Gate 2 to make some noise for both City teams!

Between Gate 7 and 8, the Asahi Skyline Bar is the perfect spot for some pre-match entertainment. It’s open from 2:15pm right through to 5:30pm.

Getting there

The easiest way to get to AAMI Park is via public transport. Click the button below to plan your PTV journey.

The S.E. Melbourne Phoenix are hosting the Brisbane Bullets at John Cain Arena at 5:30pm, so we’re expecting a little bit of foot traffic around the precinct.

If you’re looking to drive to our double header, we recommend pre-booking your spot to ensure you don’t miss out as drive-up parking in the Eastern Car Park is limited.

Event parking is $30.00 and Pre-Booked Event Parking is $20.00.
