While the Serie A season kicks off in August, unfortunately the opening round of fixtures hasn't been kind to Melbourne Milanisti. Keep an eye on our events page to see when we will be hosting our first live event of the season as new fixtures are released. Otherwise, if you think we are missing an event that we should host, please let us know!

Annual Melbourne Italian Fan Club’s Cup
Save the date! The Annual Melbourne Italian Fan Club’s Cup is back and confirmed for 13th Nov @ Ultra Football! The event has previously been a big success and as always is to be hosted by the Milan Club Melbourne. The day will kick-off at 2pm.
The event is all-inclusive, and is designed as a way to engage the local Italian community. This year, to ensure a fair competition, there is a rule that each club must have x1 30+ year old and x1 40+ year old on the field at any given time. Anyone who wants to play can play!
Any questions about the day can be directed to contact@milanclubmelbourne.com.au and you can register for your dinner / playing spot here. Positions in the team are for club members-only and limited to 15 spots.
Following the tournament, there will be a dinner and presentations between the competing clubs, spectators, and friends from 6.30pm (pizza + bites incl. arancini etc) which you can book for here.
