Stadium Information

The Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium is one of the official World Cup stadiums for South Africa 2010.

The five-tier, R1.1 billion Stadium was built overlooking the North End Lake, at the heart of the city. It is one of three coastal stadiums built in anticipation of the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

The stadium will have an eye-catching, unique roof-structure and a spectacular view, overlooking the North End Lake. There are not many stadiums in the world that are designed and constructed overlooking a lake; this in itself is a very distinctive feature of the Nelson Mandela Bay Multi-Purpose Stadium. The stadium building is approximately 40m high and consists of six levels on the western side in addition to five on each of the north, south and east stands.

The stadium will host 8 games during the tournament including a quarter final and the 3rd/4th play off.
