Stadium Information

The Kings Park Sporting Precinct is one of the official World Cup Stadiums for South Africa 2010. The Kings Park Stadium was originally built in 1891 and extensively renovated in the 1990s. It has a capacity of 55,000 and is used for both rugby union and football.

For the 2010 World Cup a second Stadium is being built called the Moses Mabhida Stadium. The stadium will have the capacity to hold 70,000 spectators during the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Its design allows the stadium seating to be reduced to 54,000 for local matches or up-scaled to 80,000 for events such as the Olympic Games.

It will reportedly host five group games, one second round game, one quarter-final and a semi-final match.
