The AFL has implemented a ticket price freeze that should have all fans breathing a sigh of relief for the highly anticipated Gather Round.
With airfare and accommodation prices soaring due to the popular weekend set in South Australia in April (10-13), the league has offered some reprieve to its supporters.
All entry-level tickets for 2025 Gather Round matches at Barossa Park, Norwood Oval and Adelaide Oval will be frozen at a $35 price point for adults, $20 for concessions, and $10 for juniors across all venues.

A tiered pricing model will again be in place at Adelaide Oval to provide fans with more options to purchase upgraded seats, with tickets for the best seats in the stadium to be capped at $65.
As previously offered, four-match and three-match multi-passes at Adelaide Oval will be available to purchase.
The members on sale will begin at 10 am ACDT / 10:30 am AEDT, Tuesday, 10 December, via Ticketek ahead of tickets going on sale to the general public on Wednesday, 11 December at the same time.
AFL CEO Andrew Dillonย said that a seat at Gather Round was fast becoming the hottest ticket in town.
"Gather Round is a celebration of footy like no other, and its popularity is growing every year," Dillon said.
"It is important to continue to keep our game affordable and accessible for all, and the price freeze hopefully helps allow everyone to experience Gather Round firsthand.
"Having nine stand-alone matches offers more opportunity to see your team play, and there continues to be plenty of free entertainment options available for families at the Maccas Footy Festival and surrounding activity.
"With the inclusion of the brand-new Barossa Park venue, nine blockbuster match-ups and a host of entertainment on offer, I'd encourage all fans to get in quick and secure your spot to one of the biggest events in the country."
SA Premier Peter Malinauskas said, "Tickets to the 2024 Gather Round were snapped up incredibly quickly, and we expect that demand will be repeated.

"It's particularly pleasing that entry-level prices have been frozen. Coupled with the many free activities available, Gather Round remains an accessible and family-friendly form of entertainment to open the Easter School holidays.
"We look forward to welcoming the many visitors that will flood into South Australia for Gather Round in 2025, in the knowledge that many will be expanding their itinerary to include the Barossa and beyond."
All matches in 2025 Gather Round will be standalone events, with no double header fixtures scheduled like we saw in this year's edition.
Tickets to the highly popular โThe Collective' match day event will return in 2025, offering a premium viewing experience, including music acts and private room and bar access, with prices starting at $99.
