Johannesburg Stadium, Multi-purpose stadium in Doornfontein, South Africa

Johannesburg Stadium sits along Van Beek Street and is a multi-purpose venue marked by a distinctive sweeping roof. The building holds glass-fronted hospitality suites overlooking the field and accommodates around 37,500 spectators.

The stadium opened in 1992 on a 37,000 m² site east of Johannesburg's city centre, about 500 metres north of Ellis Park Stadium. In September 1998 it hosted the eighth IAAF World Cup in Athletics, and a year later its track and the football final of the 1999 All-Africa Games were held there. In 2002 Ellis Park Stadium (Pty) Ltd. became its operator.

The stadium is not the home ground of either club: Orlando Pirates play at Orlando Stadium and the Golden Lions at Emirates Airline Park. Both use Johannesburg Stadium as a training base. The ground also hosts concerts, boxing, wrestling, exhibitions, banquets and school competitions, and its 39 glass-fronted suites look out over the pitch and running track.

The stadium lies in Doornfontein, about 500 metres north of the Emirates Airline Park, east of the city centre. Its grounds cover 37,000 m² including a warm-up area, parking and footpaths, and the complex also holds the 6,300-seat Ellis Park Arena, an outdoor pool and tennis courts. The main stand is covered by a roof.

Major international artists including Michael Jackson, Bon Jovi, Tina Turner, U2, and Kendrick Lamar have performed here, establishing this place as a major entertainment hub. These concerts show how the venue extends well beyond athletics and sports.
