The Freo Dockers marched straight into the AFL Grand Final for the first time since 2013. We’re buckling in for a brilliant match this Saturday, complete with the best booze (or non-alcoholic bevvie, you do you!), crispy snacks, and like-minded footy fans.
Luckily, Perth has heaps of bars and pubs and other spots where you can watch the match with friends and family. Here’s our list of events (in no particular order) happening around the AFL Grand Final (Fremantle v Brisbane) on September 26, 2026, in the city.

The price includes: 2.5 hours of free-flowing tap beers, select wines, sparkling, non-alcoholic drinks, soft drinks, juices, and a shared footy platter for the table.

Yagan Square
If all else fails, make your way to Yagan Square and watch the AFL Grand Final at the Digital Tower. Yes, you probably won’t be able to sip on unlimited beers and snack on unhealthy amounts of fried stuff. But isn’t the point of watching to do it with fans who understand why you’ve kept with the whole season?
Honestly, even if you load up on drinks and snacks at home, the Grand Final is bound to be epic. We’ll be glued to the screen, biting our nails and decked in purple. See you on the flip side!
