Royal Bafokeng Stadium

Only minor renovations will be required to bring the Royal Bafokeng Sports Palace in line with requirements for a stadium able to host first and second round matches for the FIFA™ World Cup in 2010. (Seating capacity to be increased to just over 40,000).

Located in Rustenburg in the North West Province, the Royal Bafokeng Sports Palace was opened in 1999 and completely funded by the Royal Bafokeng community. (An administrative entity presiding over the world's richest platinum mines). The Stadium is already well equipped and will require only minor renovations to bring it up to FIFA™ standards.

The capacity of the stadium will be increased to 40,000 with the construction of two additional rows of seating on the second level. New electronic scoreboards, floodlights and a new public address system will fullfill all the requirements for it to host the first and second round matches of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
