2025 AFL Grand Final Watch Parties across the USA

The AFL Grand Final is scheduled for 12:30am EDT on Saturday, September 27th (9:30pm PDT on Friday, September 26th) 2025. It brings together the Australian community across the United States and is a fun (but very late) night for all. The USAFL has compiled this wonderful list of 2025 AFL Grand Final Watch Parties and we wanted to make sure you had it!

Some parties require tickets to be purchased ahead of time due to limited capacity, and some have specific venue guidelines (age limit, alcohol cutoff times, etc). Be sure to check your party’s event page and/or message the host club with any questions.

Can’t make it out? The AFL Grand Final will be available on WatchAFL, who will carry the pregame festivities starting at 10:30pm EDT. Fox Sports 1 will begin coverage right before the game at around 12:24am.

Unless noted, all parties will begin on Friday, September 26th.
