The small tourist township savaged by the Black Saturday Bushfires is turning it on for footy fans to provide a unique day of entertainment.

In the morning the Marysville Golf Club is running a Grand Final Brunch starting at 10.00am until 12.00 noon.  Early bird keen golfers will start the Grand Final celebrations with nine holes at 8.00am or bowls from 9.00am.   

The afternoon will kick off in the township when the Grand Final will be live on the original big screen from Federation Square with the local community and visitors gathering in the village.

Marysville Golf Club Grand Final Brunch organiser Rob Christie said, the Brunch will commence at 10.00am preceded by nine holes of golf and provides a unique sporting experience, which this year will be complemented by access to the Big Screen in the town in the afternoon.

Bridget Lloyd-Jones, Regional Arts Victoria's Project Manager for the Marysville Big Screen, said the screen provides a major meeting place for the community and is scheduled to be used for a range of sporting, arts and community events.

All AFL Finals including the Grand Final are being screened at Marysville on the Marysville Big Screen.
