2010 FIFA World Cup (Cape Town)
The much anticipated 2010 FIFA World Cup will be held in South
Africa, with matches scheduled at 10 stadiums in nine cities. This
is the first time Africa will play host to the tournament and while
local infrastructure is being upgraded to meet the demands of the
estimated 3 million international spectators, tickets, flights and
accommodation are best booked well in advance. The Cape Town 2010
FIFA World Cup matches will take place at the African Renaissance
Stadium (Green Point Stadium), which is currently being transformed
to hold 70 000 spectators in an all-weather, retractable dome. The
new African Renaissance Stadium is set to host one of the
semi-finals of the FIFA World Cup on 6 July 2010. With a guaranteed
entry to the 2010 FIFA World Cup as the host nation, South Africa
is ready to do the 'Diski' dance, blow on those Vuvuzela trumpets
and play ball!
Venue: African Renaissance Stadium (Green Point Stadium);
Date: 11, 14, 18, 21, 24 and 29 June, 3 and 6 July 2010;
