North Melbourne will play Richmond in the first of three Hobart games in the AFL next season.
The newly redeveloped Blundstone Arena, with an increased capacity of almost 20,000, will play host to the blockbuster clash in round six.
“The Hobart and Tasmanian public have been unbelievably welcoming and supportive over the past three seasons, and the club can’t wait for a similar reception when we return next year,” North CEO Carl Dilena said in a statement.
“Richmond is one of the biggest clubs in the league, and for this game to be scheduled at Blundstone Arena highlights the impact North Melbourne and the AFL is having within the city of Hobart.”
North will take on West Coast in round 10, and following a sell-out crowd this season, St Kilda in round 20.
