NBA Finals Game One Coming Live to Marvel Stadium – Free for All Fans

Basketball fans, mark your calendars—Marvel Stadium is once again bringing the NBA Finals to Melbourne with a free live site event on Friday 6 June for Game One of the 2025 NBA Finals.

Held in the newly redeveloped Stadium Square (Gates 2 & 3), this fan-friendly activation will deliver an unforgettable experience, broadcasting the game live on a massive 257-inch screen direct from the U.S.

Kicking off at 9:00am, the event is free to enter and open to all ages, with tip-off scheduled for 10:30am. No ticket is required—just show up and soak up the atmosphere.

To complete the experience, Stadium Square will be transformed into a basketball fan’s dream with:

  • Two half courts available for public play

  • A 3×3 Hustle court where fans can shoot hoops during game breaks

  • NBA merchandise available for purchase

  • American-style eats and drinks from 8Bit Burgers, The Johnnie Walker Bar, EARL Canteen, and more

Marvel Stadium GM Scott Fitzgerald says the venue is proud to once again offer Melbourne a unique way to connect with the NBA Finals.

“After the incredible turnout last year, we’re excited to welcome fans back to enjoy the atmosphere, food, and basketball action all in one place,” Fitzgerald said. “With Aussie stars like Dyson Daniels and Josh Giddey making waves in the NBA, the local passion for the game is stronger than ever.”

Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just NBA-curious, Marvel Stadium’s free live site is the place to be on June 6 for Game One of the Finals.
