West Coast will return to Norwood Oval to face Richmond for the 2027 edition of Gather Round.

The AFL confirmed the fixture on Monday, with the Eagles scheduled for a 4.05pm start (2.35pm AWST) on Saturday, April 10 against the Tigers.

The ‘home’ and ‘away’ team for each game over Gather Round - except for Adelaide and Port Adelaide's matches - will be determined through a random selection process.

West Coast familiarised with Norwood in last season’s Gather Round against Geelong in a 46-point loss.  

Next year’s Gather Round will run across Thursday, April 8 to Sunday, April 11 and will align with school holidays across Australia.

Gather Round will be held over round four of the 2027 AFL Premiership Season, with the inaugural Players Parade to be held on Friday in Adelaide.

Tickets for Gather Round will go on sale for Club and AFL members in the First Priority Window at 7.30am AWST on Wednesday, December 9.

The second window opens at 7.30am until 10.30am the following day before general public sale at 12.30pm AWST on Thursday, December 10.
