Since its formation in 1877, the Victorian Football League (VFL) – known as the Victorian Football Association (VFA) until the end of 1995 – has played its matches at numerous grounds.

As a second-tier Australian rules football competition, the VFL typically plays its matches at suburban grounds. However, some larger grounds are occasionally used, including for curtain-raisers to Australian Football League (AFL) matches.

This list comprises current and former grounds. It includes grounds where teams have or had agreements in place to play home matches but are/were not full-time tenants of those grounds; in these cases, the club is shown in italics. In some instances, the listed capacity is the venue's record attendance.

Attendance records Many attendance records are higher than the present-day capacity of grounds because of redevelopments or modern safety regulations that have reduced the maxiumum capacity.
