Unite Round

Since its inception in the 2023–24 season, the event has been held in Sydney ever since in partnership with Destination NSW.

In December 2022, the Australian Professional Leagues made a decision to move the next three A-Leagues Grand Finals (2023, 2024 and 2025) which would be hosted in Sydney in a deal with Destination NSW.

The decision was met with universal backlash from fans and clubs and was demanded to be reversed.

[1] On 18 October 2023, the Australian Professional Leagues officially walked-back the Grand Final decision, renegotiating the contract into Unite Round as the replacement to the Grand Final decision, first to be held in January 2024 until the remainder of the contract.

A three-day pass was admitted to receive access to any match to attend over the three days of the event in general admission areas.
