Following Sunday’s successful Optus Stadium Open Day, Fremantle CEO Steve Rosich urged fans to make the most of the next best chance to see the ground at Freo’s Family Fun Day on Saturday 10 February.

A round two NAB AFL Women’s clash with Collingwood headlines the day, which will make history as the first game of Australian rules football played at the ground.

Before the clash, the Fremantle men’s team will also take part in their first training session at the venue, followed by a signing session for fans.

Fremantle CEO Steve Rosich says it will be a historic day worth celebrating. 

“Everyone at the club is so excited for our first season at Optus Stadium to get underway and Sunday’s open day only added to that feeling,” Rosich said.

“It was great to see the looks on the faces of Fremantle members and fans as they saw the incredible views from their new seats for the first time. 

“To those who missed out, the AFLW game will be an even better chance to see the ground, with fans able to take part in history to see the first Australian rules football game played at the venue.”

Tickets are $2 through Ticketmaster and include free public transport to Optus Stadium, so fans are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance.

There are no additional booking fees through Ticketmaster and full proceeds from ticket sales will be split evenly and donated to the Starlight Children's Foundation and the Fremantle Dockers Foundation.

Approximately 24,000 tickets have already been sold, confirming Fremantle is set to break the AFLW attendance record of 24,500 set at last year’s season opener between Carlton and Collingwood at IKON Park.

While the stadium offers amenities and services that were unavailable to fans at Domain Stadium, Rosich said the crucial new feature was the stadium’s 60,000 capacity allowed more people through the gates.

“I’m excited that more people will be able to get to games which is great and now there are more affordable membership packages that are available,” Rosich said.

“Essentially, this stadium will set us up for the next 50 years in being able to deliver AFL football and Fremantle Dockers games in a first-class fans-first environment.”
