It is customary for the NRL Women's Grand Final to begin with a rendition of the Australian National Anthem in which both teams line up opposite each other. Most grand finals thus far have been accompanied by a musical entertainment act that has performed before the match or at half-time. At the conclusion of the match, an award ceremony is held for individual awards, which include the Karyn Murphy Medal and premiership medals awarded for each participant. The captains of both sides are invited to make a speech, and the NRL Women's Premiership Trophy is presented to the captain and coach of the winning team. Following the ceremonies, players of the winning side assemble on a podium for team celebration photographs with the premiership cup and premiership medals.
