Watching the AFL finals in Australia
The 2025–2031 broadcast agreement provides finals coverage on Seven and 7plus. Foxtel and Kayo cover finals other than the live Grand Final. Choose your viewing region for match-specific listings: the channel and programme start can differ from the first bounce.
Planning a trip to a final
Check the confirmed ground before booking travel. A home-state final does not necessarily mean a club's usual home ground. Open the match details for the latest venue and ticket information, and check the official AFL fixture before you travel.
Save the finals you want to follow
Choose a club or finals stage, then download a PDF, CSV or calendar file. The file contains the real matches in your selection; qualification placeholders are not matches. A download is a snapshot, so download it again if the fixture changes.
AFL finals fixture questions
How many games are in the AFL finals series?
The final-ten system has 11 games across five weeks: two wildcards, four qualifying or elimination finals, two semi-finals, two preliminary finals and the Grand Final. The fixture count here includes only confirmed club match-ups.
Why are there no finals matches in my selection?
Finals clubs may not be confirmed yet, or no published game matches your filters. Reset the filters to check all listed finals. The bracket shows qualification places while teams are still unknown.
Where can I find preliminary finals times?
Choose Preliminary finals in the stage filter. Confirmed first-bounce times and venues will appear with each match; the winners progress to the Grand Final.
Are the finals results live?
These pages show confirmed final scores when available. They are not a ball-by-ball live score service. Completed games are ordered by the latest finish, or fixture time when the final-siren time is unavailable.
