Our Club /

Engaging with experts, community leaders and partners to educate ourselves and our community, we utilise the strength of our brand and reach to celebrate and provide voice to underrepresented communities, and create accessible and welcoming environments for our people and the Victorian community.

Storm Inclusion Festival

The Storm Inclusion Festival is delivered each year on Gosch's Paddock leading into Storm's Multicultural Round match.

The festival engages fans in a celebration of all abilities, Māori & Pasifika music, culture, dance and food.

NRL Indigenous Round

Every year Melbourne Storm participates in the NRL's Indigenous Round. The Round celebrates First Nations traditions, culture and community on the NRL platform.

NRL Multicultural Round

The NRL Multicultural Round takes place every year, and on many occasions is played against the New Zealand Warriors.

This Round is further opportunity to celebrate Māori & Pasifika traditions, culture and community on the NRL platform.

Storm Inclusive Match Days

Melbourne Storm is proud to be the Club of choice for a broad cross-section of the Victorian community. As we develop our inaugural Disability and Inclusion Action Plan, the Club is already implementing programs to provide all members and fans with a welcoming and inclusive environment.

Partnering with The Inclusion Project, Storm is making game days at AAMI Park more inclusive and accessible for people living with hidden disabilities. The program provides:

• Casual employment opportunities at Melbourne Storm for staff living with hidden disabilities
• Supported delivery of a Sensory Room at AAMI Park by a qualified Occupational Therapist
• Community seating bay for people living with disability close to support in the Sensory Room
• Sensory program packs (inclusive of earmuffs, social stories and fidget toys) to support the match day experience for neurodiverse fans at Storm match days
