What’s On In Sport
September
From Footy Finals to UFC Showdowns...
Varsity Brings you the Ultimate Sporting Experience!
There is nothing like a sporty weekend, right?! And isn’t it even better when it doesn’t involve dragging yourself out for a run? Hell yes! We’re on the same page here. See, at Varsity, we do love sports, but we think it is nicer from a distance. Not that we are a lazy bunch but let’s say that we enjoy sitting in the background, commenting on matches and lecturing the players and the coaches. See, for us that’s what’s sports’ about.
And this month, with the AFL & NRL Finals kicking off, we’re in for a real sporting treat. So we hope you’ve warmed up your voices because we are ON!
Coming in live and loud
AFL Finals are here!
The moment we’ve all been waiting for is here: the footy finals are on! Although Collingwood has been announced by footy experts as the most likely to claim the flag, nothing’s set yet and things could evolve very quickly.
Starting on Thursday 7th September, the finals start with the Pies meeting the Demons. A good way for Collingwood to show if they are worth the hype as they face the second most favoured team at the home of footy. We tell you, this game is going to be intense, filled with twists and turns. You won’t want to miss it.
Gather with your best footy buddy and make the best of the finals at Varsity:
- Thursday, 7th September, 5:20 pm: Collingwood vs. Melbourne
- Friday, 8th September, 5:50 pm: Carlton vs. Sydney
- Saturday, 9th September, 1:20 pm: St. Kilda vs. GWS

UFC 293 & UFC Fight Night
Buckle up, fight fans! On September 10th, we’re bringing you the electrifying showdown between “The Stylebender” Israel Adesanya and the iron-chinned bruiser, “Tarzan” Sean Strickland for the UFC 293. Will Adesanya’s precision prevail, or will Strickland’s relentlessness rule the cage?
We offer your front-row seats to witness jaw-dropping knockouts, ground-shaking takedowns, and an epic battle for the Middleweight belt inside Sydney’s octagon.
On September 17th, WA’s own Jack Della Maddalena will jump in the ring for the UFC Fight Night so you better jump on our early-opening occasion to come watch his fight. Stay tuned to our Innaloo venues’ website and social media to find out more.
