Four'N Twenty Legends Game for Prostate Cancer

Football's Biggest Charity Match Returns

One of Australian football's most iconic charity events is back in 2026 as the Four'N Twenty Legends Game for Prostate Cancer takes over Marvel Stadium on Thursday 27 August.

Held on the eve of the AFL's Wildcard Round, the annual showcase reunites some of the game's biggest names and most popular personalities for a spirited contest that celebrates football while raising vital funds and awareness for prostate cancer. The match will be broadcast live around Australia on Seven and 7plus Sport, allowing fans across the country to be part of the occasion.

A Proud AFL Tradition

The Legends Game made a highly successful return in 2025 after a six-year break, attracting more than 30,000 fans to Marvel Stadium and raising more than $1 million to support prostate cancer care, research and awareness. Its return also delivered one of the most-watched AFL broadcasts of the season, confirming the enduring popularity of the event.

Originally known as the E.J. Whitten Legends Game, the match continues the legacy of AFL great E.J. Whitten Sr, whose advocacy helped bring national attention to prostate cancer. Today, the event continues that mission by supporting the Australian Prostate Centre and helping improve the lives of Australians affected by the disease.

Whether you're a lifelong football supporter or simply looking to support an important cause, the Four'N Twenty Legends Game for Prostate Cancer promises a memorable evening of AFL nostalgia, family-friendly entertainment and community spirit.
