TASMANIA DEVILS AFL TICKETS 2028

About

They said it would never happen. After more than 150 years of passionate, gritty Tasmanian football, and decades of lobbying, dreaming, and believing, the AFL's 19th licence was officially awarded on 3 May 2023. On 18 March 2024, Tasmania Football Club unveiled its name, colours, logo, and foundation jumper to the world: the Tasmania Devils had arrived.

Born from an extensive community consultation that spanned nine forums across the island, from Queenstown to Scottsdale, Hobart to Devonport — the Devils are truly a club built by Tasmanians, for Tasmanians. Their values of connection, commitment, character, consolidation, and contribution aren't boardroom buzzwords; they're the fabric of a state that has waited a long, long time for its moment in the sun.

The Devils are currently competing in the VFL, making their competitive debut on 21 March 2026 against the Coburg Lions at a sold-out North Hobart Oval — a 96–79 win in front of 10,634 passionate fans. It was the first of many. Their inaugural AFL season is set to kick off in 2028, and when that day comes, Ticket Merchant will be right there with you.

Stay tuned, Tasmania Devils AFL tickets will be available here the moment fixtures are released. In the meantime, bookmark this page and be first in line when the Devils take the national stage.
