Time Out says

The annual AFLW Pride Round is taking place from January 21-23 with a series of five games across Melbourne. Celebrate inclusivity in sport and support our LGBTQIA+ community by dressing up in your favourite rainbow clothing and accessories and heading over for a round or two of footy. 

In honour of the occasion, umpires will be wearing rainbow-coloured sweatbands and holding rainbow flags, the official competition logo will feature a rainbow coloured emblem, all 50-metre ground markings will be painted rainbow and members of the clubs will wear rainbow guernseys.

On January 21, catch the Geelong Cats playing against Collingwood at Kardinia Park from 7.10pm. The next day, you can head to Casey Fields from 3.10pm to catch the Melbourne versus St Kilda match, or pop over to the Punt Road Oval from 5.10pm for the Richmond versus Fremantle Game. 

Pride Round will wrap up on Sunday, January 23 with two matches: the North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos playing against the GWS Giants at Arden Street from 1.10pm, and the Western Bulldogs playing against Carlton at the Whitten Oval at 3.10pm. 

The best part? Tickets are just $10 for adults and are free for children. Head to the AFLW website for more information and to book your tickets.
