About Fremantle v Hawthorn - 2026 Toyota AFL Finals Series

Finals football in September carries a different weight than the home-and-away season. Every possession matters more, the crowd arrives louder, and a loss ends the year on the spot. A Thursday night fixture means an early-week trip for travelling fans, with work or school squeezed around it rather than a relaxed weekend build-up. Whatever the ladder positions produce, this is sudden-death intensity rather than a routine round.

Where to stay nearby

Perth is the base for this one, sitting just a few kilometres from the stadium with the widest choice of accommodation by far — 338 hotels in the catalog, covering everything from city-centre high-rises to riverside options. Most fans stay in or near the city centre and use local buses or a short taxi ride across to the ground on the night. Booking early is worth doing given the Thursday evening kick-off, as it falls midweek and rooms near the action can go quickly once the finals draw is confirmed.

Perth — about 3 km away

Perth suits pretty much every kind of visitor, from those after a quick and cheap stay to those wanting something central and comfortable. The stadium is a short journey away by train, bus, or the pedestrian bridge across the Swan River, and match-day services run frequently before and after events.

About Optus Stadium

Perth's riverside stadium stands on the Burswood peninsula with the city skyline across the water, a 60,000-seat bowl that takes Test and Big Bash cricket, AFL and the biggest touring concerts. The Matagarup Bridge carries walkers over the Swan to East Perth, and Stadium station sits beside the gates with trains into the centre in minutes.

The surrounding parkland is genuinely pleasant before a game rather than just somewhere to queue. A room in the CBD or East Perth keeps the walk short and the trains close.
