Celebrating the cultural diversity of Melbourne, the Western Bulldogs will play North Melbourne in the first ever Harmony Game at Etihad Stadium on Saturday 23 June.
Australian Football is a game for everyone, where many cultures unite. As part of the celebrations, fans will be welcomed to the stadium with live performances from several countries and a flag ceremony on ground prior to the commencement of the game that celebrates 10 countries representing the diverse backgrounds of both the North Melbourne and Western Bulldogs supporter bases and community programs. The countries that will form part of the flag ceremony include India, China, Vietnam, Iraq, Myanmar, Ethiopia, Eritrea, South Sudan, New Zealand and Australia.
A range of cuisines will be available for purchase throughout the game plus those attending are encouraged to experience footy the Aussie way with a $3 Aussie pie. Make sure you are in your seats before the game to witness the incredible performance that highlights the Western Bulldogs and North Melbourne’s diverse communities. If you are yet to experience an AFL game, make sure you mark Saturday 23rd June in your diary.

Dear Reader,The Indian Sun is an independent organisation committed to community journalism. We have, through the years, been able to reach a wide audience especially with the growth of social media, where we also have a strong presence. With platforms such as YouTube videos, we have been able to engage in different forms of storytelling.

We believe community journalism is very important for a multicultural country like Australia. We’re not able to do everything, but we aim for some of the most interesting stories and journalism of quality. We call upon readers like you to support us and make any contribution.
