Footy crowds back in Victoria for round one, but there is a limit – AFL
Victorian Premier Dan Andrews will cap crowd sizes for round one
CROWDS are set to return to the footy in Victoria for all round one games of the Toyota AFL Premiership Season.
The State Government will make the announcement today that will see the biggest crowds at a sporting event since the pandemic hit Victoria in March, 2020, when thousands were turned away from Melbourne’s Grand Prix.
Crowd numbers, however, will be capped at 50,000 at the MCG and Marvel Stadium will also be at 50 per cent capacity (a total of 28,961).
