MCG Open Day marks MCC’s 175th anniversary
November 16, 2013
The Melbourne Cricket Club (MCC) will open the MCG for everyone to enjoy this Sunday (17th November), in celebration of the club's 175th anniversary.
The free event allows the public to gain rare access to the playing surface and see parts of the stadium and the MCC Reserve that are normally off limits, such as the Stadium Management Centre and the Long Room.
MCC President Paul Sheahan said he was thrilled to invite the general public to join the MCC in celebrating this rare and wonderful achievement.
Sheahan explained "the MCC has a rich history and a vast heritage collection which has been preserved for its visitors to appreciate.
"Open Day provides a great opportunity for those interested in Australia's sporting history to gain insight into Australia's largest and oldest sporting club and the world-class stadium that it manages."
Highlights of the day include:
• Relive favourite sporting moments on the hallowed turf of the MCG with kick-to-kick with family and friends.
• Have a photo taken on the AFL premiership dais with the 2013 replica premiership cup.
• Pick up a map and show bag and take a tour through the MCC Reserve, player change rooms and National Sports Museum.
• Be challenged on the AFL Playground, Melbourne Stars bowling tunnel and AFL Victoria's mini draft camp.
• Sit back and enjoy roving entertainment from the comfort of the Hugh Trumble Cafe, Tower 6 and Paddock Café.
• Meet favourite sporting stars and win prizes throughout the day.
