Why are prices different for MCG Corporate Boxes for AFL matches?
Put simply, it comes down to supply and demand. While most MCG Corporate Boxes include the same premium hospitality and match-day experience, pricing fluctuates based on the popularity and demand for each game.
King’s Birthday or Dreamtime at the ‘G – Major calendar events with strong cultural and club significance.
Collingwood vs Carlton – Always a blockbuster, often drawing 70,000+ fans regardless of ladder position.
Traditional rivalries – Any match between Collingwood, Carlton, Essendon, Richmond or Hawthorn.
Friday night games – These prime-time slots are always in strong demand.
Surprise performers – If a team is flying unexpectedly late in the season and facing a traditional powerhouse, demand, and therefore prices, typically increase.
Lower-demand matches (more affordable):
Not every game sells out, which presents great value opportunities:
Less popular Melbourne clubs playing each other or an interstate side.
Sunday afternoon or evening games with smaller expected crowds.
Matches scheduled on long weekends or during holiday periods, when corporate attendance can be lower due to family or travel commitments.
Why is there a range of prices for a particular game?
We offer a range of corporate boxes in different locations around the ground — some more central or elevated than others — as well as differences in fit-out and layout. Naturally, these differences impact pricing.
Our online prices are indicative only — exact availability and pricing are confirmed upon enquiry. Maintaining a live inventory would be a full-time job!
