MEN’S CRICKET WORLD CUP 2027 VENUES AND BRAND REVEALED
ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup makes its much-anticipated return to Africa after 24 years, with the event set to take place across three countries.
Twelve venues across South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia were announced as the hosts for next year’s ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup.
A spectacular ceremony in Johannesburg saw eight cities across South Africa, three in Zimbabwe and Namibia’s capital Windhoek unveiled as co-hosts for the tournament.
The 12 host venues are:
South Africa
- Wanderers Stadium (Johannesburg)
- Centurion (Tshwane)
- Newlands Cricket Ground (Cape Town)
- Kingsmead Cricket Ground (Durban)
- St George’s Park (Gqeberha)
- Mangaung Oval (Bloemfontein)
- Boland Park (Paarl)
- Buffalo Park (KuGompo City, formerly known as East London)
- Harare Sports Club (Harare)
- Queens Sports Club (Bulawayo)
- Mosi-oa-Tunya International Cricket Stadium (Victoria Falls)
- Namibia Cricket Ground (Windhoek)
Set to host the world’s top 14 teams, the three host countries for 2027 are united by a spirit of optimism, diversity and community under the ‘Three Nations, One Heartbeat’ brand.
The 14th edition of the showpiece event is set to host the cricketing community from across the world, imbued with the African message of ‘Ubuntu’, a philosophy that translates to “I am, because we are”, the belief that we as humanity are defined by our compassion, kindness and connection to one another.
This is in line with the ‘Make the Circle Bigger’ philosophy, which is at the heart of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2027, bringing together a rich tapestry of cultures, 29 officially recognised languages and a lifestyle and vast mosaic of identities that unite the region.

They put one of those in at Newlands over the last couple of months. I was wondering WTF they were doing.
I tell you I am absolutely shocked that India and Pakistan are in the same group. Absolutely shocked

None of them are likely to be used for the WC.
