Stadium management targets 25 000 tickets for MTN8 final

The stadium has a capacity of 56 000 and will host half the number on Saturday night.

“We are very confident of reaching 25 000‚” stadium manager Vusi Mazibuko told SowetanLive.

“We know that 60% of our supporters have this culture of buying tickets on the day of the match. So we are banking a lot on that and the fact that some people will only get paid on the 13th (Friday).

“We are doing everything we can to encourage the fans to buy their tickets early.

“The gates will be opened at 4pm and the PSL will provide entertainment which should include a lot of Gqom music with the likes of Babes Wodumo forming part of the acts.”
