The AFL is pleased to advise a four year contract extension with Crown Melbourne that will see the Brownlow Medal Count remain at Crown Palladium Melbourne until 2021. 

One of the highlights of Toyota AFL Grand Final Week, the Brownlow Medal Count brings the AFL industry together to celebrate the season’s fairest and best player. 

The Brownlow Medal Count is the AFL’s biggest off-field event with 1500 guests, the Swiss Red Carpet Arrivals and a live television broadcast. 

AFL General Manager Growth, Digital and Audience Darren Birch said Crown Melbourne will continue to be a close associate of the AFL. 

"Crown Melbourne has been an outstanding partner of the AFL not only for the Brownlow Medal Count but for many other Australian Football events over a long period of time," he said. 

"The AFL is thrilled to extend our partnership with Crown Melbourne and we look forward to delivering outstanding events with them in the future. 

"The Brownlow Medal Count transcends the game with great fashion and the best in football. It’s an iconic event."

The 2017 Brownlow Medal Count was held on Monday night in the Crown Palladium.
