Cape Town is set to underline its reputation as South Africa's sports crowd capital this weekend, with two major fixtures expected to play out in front of packed stadiums across the city.
Newlands Cricket Ground will be a sea of supporters when it hosts the SA20 final, with tickets already snapped up and a full house confirmed for the showpiece event. DHL Stadium, where the Stormers' highly anticipated United Rugby Championship clash against the Sharks, will also feature a sell-out crowd.
The double-header weekend has sparked a wave of excitement across the Mother City, with fans preparing to flood into Cape Town for what promises to be a festival of elite sport. From cricket tees to rugby jerseys, the city is expected to be alive with colour, noise and anticipation long before the first whistle or opening delivery.
