The arena brings Soweto’s football history into the present through Orlando Pirates home fixtures. The site dates from 1959, while the stadium was completely rebuilt and reopened in 2008. It also hosted the 2010 World Cup Kick-Off Celebration Concert, adding an international event to a venue with a long local sporting identity.
What to look for
The site’s sporting history began with the original stadium in 1959.
