AFL action returns to the heart of Australia, with another huge clash set for Alice Springs.

Melbourne Football Club heads back to TIO Traeger Park to take on Greater Western Sydney in the annual Heart of the Nation game - a fixture that continues to build a strong connection with the Red Centre.

The last time these two sides met in Alice Springs, it went down to the wire, with the Giants edging out the Demons in a thrilling contest - and all signs point to another fiercely competitive showdown.

Set against the backdrop of Central Australia, this is a unique opportunity to experience AFL at the highest level in one of the country's most iconic locations.

Whether you're a local or travelling in, it's more than just a game - it's an experience.

Don't miss your chance - lock in your tickets and be part of AFL in the Red Centre.
