The new Green Point Stadium in Cape Town was lit up last night for the first time as part of the build up for next summer’s world cup.

Cape Town will be host to 6 first-round matches, one second-round match, one quarter-final and one semi-final.  As you can see from the picture, the new 70,000 seater stadium looks spectacular and is only a stone’s throw from the popular Victoria and Alfred Waterfront.

With Table Mountain as its backdrop and the Atlantic Ocean nearby, the stadium has one of the most picturesque settings of any sporting arena anywhere in the world.
