GATHER Round for another trip to Adelaide Oval.
For the second straight year, Carlton will take on West Australian opposition in the AFL’s festival of footy, ‘hosting’ West Coast in the first confirmed game of the Blues’ 2025 fixture.
The clash will take place at 12:50pm local time (1:20pm Melbourne time) on Saturday 12 April — while the Essendon-Melbourne game also takes place at the same venue that night, tickets to the respective games will be sold separately.
Despite being the nominal home team, the Blues will still have their 11 home games in Melbourne, which will be announced when the full fixture is confirmed by the AFL.
Gather Round tickets will go on sale via Ticketek on Tuesday 10 December at 10am ACDT for Club and AFL members, with tickets for the general public to be available at 10am ACDT on Wednesday 11 December. Virgin Australia, the official airline of the AFL and Gather Round, will also provide extra flights to Adelaide.
The Blues will be looking for history to repeat from 2024 Gather Round, where they broke their Adelaide Oval drought against the Eagles’ crosstown rivals in the Dockers.
Carlton has won its last two games at the venue, following a 36-point triumph against Port Adelaide in Round 12.
