WHERE WE SIT
The Demon Army sit behind the goals in Section 213. Our seats are "conveniently" situated next to Brisbane's "Verandah" area, which is a flashy open-air bar with deck chairs and cocktails.  We have plenty of seats for our match in Round 2. All Melbourne supporters welcome. Click here to book.


WHERE WE STAY
There are plenty of accommodation options in the city but not too many within walking distance of the ground.

A number of Demon Army members stay around King George Square as this is a central spot and the bus to the ground goes from opposite the Pullman/Mercure.


WHERE WE MEET
The standard gathering point near the ground is the Pineapple Hotel (Main Street, Kangaroo Point) before and after or Pig and Whistle, King George Square in the city.

If you've got kids, there's a big open field behind The Pineapple where they can run around and kick a ball and you can watch them from the back of the pub, drink in hand.
