BOXING DAY TEST TICKETS 2025/2026

About

Summer in Australia means long, sunny days, warm evenings, and the return of cricket—particularly the iconic Boxing Day Test.

For England supporters, there's no greater occasion than the Boxing Day Ashes Test. In 2025, the fourth Test of the Ashes series will take place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), and it’s set to be a monumental clash between England and Australia. With an anticipated crowd of over 95,000, this is the ultimate setting for one of the sport’s fiercest rivalries.

This is the pinnacle of Test cricket, played on the sport’s most iconic day. The MCG’s Boxing Day fixture is legendary, with the stadium's rich history showcasing some of the most memorable Ashes moments. From Scott Boland’s magical 6/7 spell against England in 2021 to Shane Warne’s 700th Test wicket, and Don Bradman’s immortal 270 not out, the MCG has hosted countless unforgettable moments in Ashes history.

For England supporters, the MCG is a venue with personal significance. While Australia has the upper hand with 28 wins to England’s 20, it’s also a place where England has risen to the occasion, creating iconic moments of their own. The MCG always brings out the best in both sides, and who knows—this could be the match where England clinches the Ashes!

Located just 1km from Melbourne's city centre, the MCG stands at the heart of one of the world's greatest sporting precincts. For England fans making the journey down under, this is an unmissable experience. Whether it's your first visit or you're returning to see the English team in action, being there to witness the Ashes on Boxing Day is an unforgettable moment in any cricket lover's life.

For England supporters traveling to Melbourne, it's not just about watching the match—it’s about soaking up the atmosphere, sharing the excitement with friends and family, and being part of a cricket tradition. It's the ultimate way to spend Boxing Day in Australia, and there's no better place to do so than at the MCG.

From Andrew Symonds' debut century to the 'Nice Gary' moment and even Warnie’s 700th wicket, the Boxing Day Test has seen it all. It's an essential day for every cricket fan, and being there to experience it live is something no true supporter should miss.
