Cape Town Stadium, Multi-purpose sports venue in Green Point, Cape Town, South Africa
The stadium features a glass and steel structure with a woven fiberglass exterior, situated between Signal Hill and the Atlantic Ocean at Green Point.
Construction of the 58,309-capacity stadium began in March 2007, replacing the previous 1897 Green Point Stadium for the 2010 FIFA World Cup tournament.
The stadium transformed from its initial football focus to accommodate rugby matches, concerts, and community events, reflecting South African sporting diversity.
The facility contains 900 toilets, 360 urinals, 16 elevators, 115 entrance turnstiles, and connects to the V&A Waterfront through Granger Bay Boulevard.
The exterior coating of Teflon-covered fiberglass creates a luminous effect during evening hours through specialized lighting systems.
