MELBOURNE’S traditional Queen’s Birthday clash against Collingwood at the MCG is one of the blockbuster matches of the season.
To celebrate the occasion, the club will be holding, ‘Demons Day Out’. It will be held on the MCG concourse between gates two and three.
‘Demons Day Out’ has replaced ‘Walk at the ‘G’ this year, but the club will still give its supporters the chance to see the players and celebrate Melbourne’s biggest game at the MCG with all the same activities.
There will some great activities including the chance to meet the non-playing players at the Hertz signing station, win airline tickets thanks to China Southern in the paper plane competition.
Also, have a photo with the 1964 premiership cup, as well as lots of giveaways and fun activities for the kids.
Activities start from 12.30pm.
For those who still want to meet family and friends and ‘Walk to the ‘G’, the Demon Army will leave from the bottom of the steps at Birrarung Marr, Federation Square at 12pm, as they lead supporters to ‘Demons Day Out’.
Melbourne’s major sponsor AHG is also the match day sponsor.
