List of Victorian Football League grounds

Since its formation in 1877, the Victorian Football League (VFL) – known as the Victorian Football Association (VFA) until the end of 1995 – has played its matches at numerous grounds.^[1]^[2]

As a second-tier Australian rules football competition, the VFL typically plays its matches at suburban grounds.^[3] However, some larger grounds are occasionally used, including for curtain-raisers to Australian Football League (AFL) matches.^[4]^[5]

This list comprises current and former grounds. It includes grounds where teams have or had agreements in place to play home matches but are/were not full-time tenants of those grounds; in these cases, the club is shown in italics.

Current

In some instances, the listed capacity is the venue's record attendance.
