The National Rugby League's Easter Monday Game is held annually on the Easter Monday holiday in Australia between the Parramatta Eels and Wests Tigers. It is generally played at Stadium Australia, however was held at Western Sydney Stadium in 2019.

The match has traditionally drawn large crowds, including selling out the opening of the new Western Sydney Stadium, where the Parramatta club defeated the Wests Tigers by a record-breaking 51–6.[1]

No event was held in 2020 due to the season being suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
