See Cape Town Stadium for yourself

06/08/2010

If you were in Cape Town during the World Cup, you could be forgiven for thinking that the Cape Town Stadium – rather the football itself – was the main event. Graceful, elegant and avant-garde, the stadium is everything FIFA and Capetonians expected it to be.

Curious residents and visitors who missed out on the opportunity to go to a game, can now see this iconic landmark in all its glory thanks to the newly re-opened visitors’ centre. The centre closed its doors to the public during the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

Interesting, hour-long walking tours, run by the stadium operators, SAIL STADEFRANCE, started on 3 August, and will continue every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, at 10:00, 12:00 noon and 2:00. Wednesdays are reserved for school tours.

The tour takes visitors through the vast thoroughfares and multi-levels of this brand-new stadium and of course, a visit to the hallowed turf itself.

Tours cost R60 per adult and R30 for children under the age of 12, and pensioners.

For more information or to book a tour, please email visitors@sailstadefrance.co.za or visit www.stadiumcapetown.co.za.
