It’s a Christmas Double Header at AAMI Park! We’re back at home this Saturday as our W-League side takes on Canberra United before our A-League boys do battle in the Melbourne Derby.
With exciting pre-match activities going at City Square, there’s plenty happening around the AAMI Park concourse to keep the whole family entertained in the lead up to kick-off.

An action-packed City Square!
But first, all the action begins at City Square! Head down to Gosch’s Paddock from 4:30pm – 7pm and countdown to kick-off in the company of your family, friends and fellow City fans.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to ground works, City Square will be moved to the east side of Gosch’s Paddock.
Challenge your mates to a game of FIFA 19 on our giant LED screen, relax at our chill out zone, or head to our Stomping Ground Brewery pop-up bar to enjoy a limited-edition City Pale ale in the lead up to kick-off.
Kids can emulate their City heroes at our small sided matches and show their skills at our City inflatables, while there will be plenty of food, activities and giveaways to keep you entertained before the big match.
