The Cape Town Stadium in Cape Town, South Africa is a newly built stadium that was used for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
Construction of the Stadium began in March 2007. In 33 months, joint contractors Murray & Roberts and WBHO completed the project at a cost of R4.4billion – or approximately US$600million. The project architects were an association between GMP Architects of Germany and two local firms, Louis Karol and Associates and Point Architects.
Following the World Cup, the stadium capacity was reduced to 55,000, enabling it to cater for all types of sports, including rugby, as well as music concerts and other major events. The stadium features corporate hospitality suites, medical, training, and conferencing and banqueting facilities.
Ajax Cape Town are currently using the stadium as their home ground during the 2010-11 Premier Soccer League season till present.
