The Blackwoods North Melbourne Grand Final Breakfast is officially a sell-out.

A record of around 3,500 guests will fill the playing surface of Etihad Stadium on Saturday morning for what promises to be the best Blackwoods North Melbourne Grand Final Breakfast in the event’s rich 47-year history.

This year’s numbers affirm that the original and the best, Blackwoods North Melbourne Grand Final Breakfast continues to be the premier event on the AFL calendar.

VIP guests will include Australian’s leading politicians, former Australian cricket captain Ricky Ponting and fast bowler Peter Siddle as well as past grand final heroes Kevin Sheedy, Frank ‘Bluey Adams, Anthony Stevens, Ted Hopkins, Wayne Harmes and Dermott Brereton.

US comedian Arj Barker, Australian music icon Tim Rogers and Rock Opera will keep guests entertained over the course of the morning.

The Blackwoods North Melbourne Grand Final Breakfast will be broadcast exclusively on Fox Footy from 9.00am this Saturday.
