Own a Genuine Piece of MCG History

For decades, these authentic metal halide globes illuminated some of the greatest moments in Australian sport. From unforgettable AFL Grand Finals and Boxing Day Tests to international concerts and historic events, they stood high above the Melbourne Cricket Ground as witnesses to generations of sporting history.

Following the MCG's upgrade to LED lighting in 2020, a limited number of the original light tower globes were carefully retained during the decommissioning process. Now, for the first time, just 200 of these authentic globes have been made available.

Each globe is individually mounted on a premium timber display. No two globes are the same, every piece bears its own unique markings, reflecting years of illuminating the moments that have shaped the MCG's rich history.

Complete with a Certificate of Authenticity, this is an extraordinary opportunity to own a genuine piece of one of the world's most iconic sporting venues.

With only 200 available, this is a truly limited collector's item that celebrates the enduring legacy of the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
