Essendon is making its return to Friday night footy after the rest of the 2023 fixture was unveiled on Thursday.
The Bombers will play their first Friday night fixture for 2023 against the Western Bulldogs.
Essendon will also feature in two Saturday night prime time games against Geelong (round 18) and Sydney (round 20).
The side will travel interstate only once to visit GIANTS Stadium in round 23, with the Bombers' only other match outside Melbourne will take place at GMHBA Stadium to face Geelong.
