Fans can experience the return of the Sevens Series to Cape Town this December, with tickets set to go on sale starting at just R250.
The tournament, taking place at Cape Town Stadium on 7-8 December 2024, will see 24 international teams competing over two days.
Tickets will go on sale through Ticketmaster on Wednesday, 25 September, with prices ranging from R250 to R800. Early-bird options will be available via BokSquad and loyalty club channels.
The tournament will feature the Olympic gold medal-winning French men’s and New Zealand women’s teams, among the 12 teams in each competition, as well as Olympic sensations such as the USA women’s and Fijian men’s teams
SA Rugby chief executive Rian Oberholzer said the local organising committee would once again aim to provide the “gold standard” when it comes to combining rugby and entertainment.
“Over the years, we’ve invested an enormous amount of thought and effort into producing this event and making it worthwhile for our supporters, and one of the areas we’ve had good feedback on is the cost of tickets, which is why we’ve ensured tickets are accessible and attractively priced for all fans,” said Oberholzer.
“Although fans from all over the world flock to Cape Town for this event – which has been voted the Best Live Experience in South Africa twice – we have to keep in mind our local supporters who love to attend this celebration of rugby and entertainment, and we’re certain tickets to this popular event will once again be a highly sought after item.
“The Springboks have sold out five Tests so far this year and to return to the venue of their last clash on local soil, the DHL Stadium, will be wonderful. The whole experience on 7 September will be remembered for a long time and we’re going to try and raise the bar in December, giving fans a unique Cape Town experience while they enjoy seeing 24 of the world’s best teams in action.”
Oberholzer also repeated the warning to supporters to not be tempted to purchase from resellers, other online agencies or companies offering tickets and hospitality packages, as these cannot be guaranteed.
“Tickets will only be available from Ticketmaster and we urgently warn fans not to buy from online ‘re-sellers’ such as Viagogo and others, who charge inflated prices without any guarantee of tickets at the end,” said Oberholzer.
“People have lost money and been left disappointed and angry when they don’t receive these expensive tickets, and our message remains loud, clear and very simple: only buy through the official channels, in this case Ticketmaster.”
