Where to play team sports Johannesburg

This stadium, which has been completely rebuilt, is the most important one because it hosted the opening match and the World Cup final! One of the most artistic stadiums, the design is inspired by the calabash, an African pitcher.

Close to Soweto, it is a symbol for the millions of black people who live in this township. Nelson Mandela gave one of his most famous speeches there when he was released from prison in 1990. It was here again that South Africa won the historic 1996 African Nations Cup final against Tunisia.

Located near the CBD in the Doomfontein district, its development is strategic to rehabilitate the surrounding area, which is still difficult to access. Built in 1928 to host rugby matches, it was completely rebuilt in 1982. It is known by its former name, Ellis, in honor of the mayor at the time. This stadium hosted the final of the 1995 Rugby World Cup, which South Africa won. It is the home of the local rugby team, the Lions, as well as the Orlando Pirates soccer team. It has a capacity of 62,567 spectators.
