THE venues at which the McDonalds Ballarat Football Netball League’s grand finals will take place have been announced by management.
Revealed on Monday, the culmination of competitions for the 2024 season will take place between City Oval and Eastern Oval.
“After an outstanding 2023 finals series, which culminated in a nail-biting grand final in brilliant sunshine at the City Oval we look forward to the 2024 series being just as exciting with the same wonderful weather,” a statement from the Ballarat Football Netball League said.
“Through the support of major sponsors, McDonalds Ballarat and finals naming partners Ballarat Toyota, Carlton Draught and McDelivery, the Ballarat FNL can showcase a high standard finals series of football and netball from across the region.”
The BFLW finals series will be the first to conclude, beginning on Sunday 11 and finishing on Saturday 31 August at the Eastern Oval.
The last games for the junior football and netball seasons will follow on Saturday 24 August, with the junior grand final to take place at City Oval on Sunday 15 September.
The senior football and netball clubs’ finals season games will begin on Saturday 31 August with City Oval also hosting the main event on Saturday 21 September.
The finals series will see 21 events held across just under two months while eight different venues will be utilised across Ballarat, Darley, and surrounding areas.
More than 50,000 people are expected to attend the events across all competitions throughout the finals series.
Mars Stadium is absent from the grand final schedule, with City Oval serving as the key venue for the second year in a row.
