Collingwood will invest $3 million to redevelop Victoria Park's playing surface.

The Magpies' spiritual home hosts AFLW, VFL and VFLW games, with works on the surface to begin later this year and be wrapped up by mid-March 2027.

The Magpies AFLW side's last game at Victoria Park this season is on Sunday.

“Victoria Park is an historic ground for the Collingwood Football Club, community football and the local community," chief executive Craig Kelly said.

“Investing in Victoria Park remains a key priority and pillar for our football club and our partnership with the Yarra City Council ensures Victoria Park remains accessible to everyone.

“Our plans always commit to supporting the community and a full redevelopment of the playing surface ensures the ground will support all traffic and programs, grassroots to elite, across the course of a year.

“As part of this significant investment, the Club, in conjunction with the AFL, will be responsible for maintaining the playing surface once the works are complete.

“We will continue to invest in our ovals and facilities from our heartland at Victoria Park to our headquarters at the KGM Centre in Melbourne Park.

“We look forward to more football being played across our two homes.”
