The 1999 AFL Grand Final was an Australian rules football game contested between the Kangaroos Football Club and the Carlton Football Club in the annual grand final of the Australian Football League (formerly the Victorian Football League), staged to determine the premiers for the 1999 AFL season. The match, attended by 94,228 spectators, was won by the Kangaroos by a margin of 35 points (the second consecutive year in which the premiership decider was determined by that margin). It was the club's fourth and (as of 2026) most recent premiership victory.
