Chart-topping Australian band Sheppard has been confirmed as the headline act for the 48th Blackwoods North Melbourne Grand Final Breakfast.

Sheppard will have the crowd up and about early with their ARIA #1 and triple platinum hit ‘Geronimo’; the longest running #1 single by an independent Australian artist of all-time.

Also on the menu - one of Australia’s favourite comedians, Dave Hughes, will deliver a hilarious stand-up routine to an expected crowd of more than 3,200.

“Grand Final is my favourite day of the year and the best way to start is with the Blackwoods North Melbourne Breakfast. Bring it on!” Hughes said.
