The city is boiling with the 2010 soccer world cup coming...We, as South African, are so proud of holding the Soccer World Cup this year!

It's going to kick off in South Africa and so in Cape Town on the 11th of June 2010 for nearly a month! Everybody gets excited and 2010 worldcup tickets are mostly sold by now! One of the last ways to try to get worldcup tickets may be with the Fifa which releases tickets at different phases and from now, it is on the 'first come, first served basis' so please be the first one during these 2 last phases: from the 9 February to 7 April 2010 and 15 April to 11 July 2010.

Where to see the 2010 Soccer World Cup in Cape Town

Obviously at the stadium or at Fan Fest(FIFA's official Public Viewing Area)at the Grand Parade in Cape Town city centre which can accommodate 25000 fans, open from 10am to midnight.

They have started in March 2007 and it is now completed thanks to 2,500 workers!

The stadium is in the heart of Cape Town (1,8km walk from the Cape Town station) close the V&A Waterfront, a perfect location for tourists. Do you know that 4 out of 5 visitors in South Africa are expected to come to Cape Town! It’s going to be amazingly busy! The city will be boiling!

Obviously, the stadium has been built with this number in mind and therefore will have 68,000 seats which will be reduced to 55,000 seats and it will used for a variety of events after the world cup. How to get to the stadium?

On match nights, there will be a Fan Walk which will start at the Grand Parade in Cape Town city centre and finish at the Stadium (1.8kms). This walk will be well secured.

More information on Green Point Stadium.

For Green point stadium tour options, go to the Green Point Visitor Center.

Fan Parks have been planned for supporters to watch all games for free. In the Western Cape, they will be situated at:

• The Grand Parade Somerset West Road

Make some noise with a vuvuzela! Get the famous air horn or approximately 1m in length, commonly blown by fans at soccer matches.

WHERE TO STAY DURING THE 2010 SOCCER WORLD CUP?

Knowing Cape Town, I really advise you to stay as close as possible such as Green Point as the traffic is going to be horrific.
