Fan Parks

[DarkDenim]

Who's going? What's the best time to go?

I'm going to the Innis Free Fan Park at 13:00

Any other great places (bars maybe) one could go to?

Well all I can say is that the Fan Park in the CPT CBD was filled to capacity before mid day yesterday.

Metro police & SAPS had to funnel +15 000 people away from the parade into Adderly street and Long Street (btw Long was also full) so my advice is go early VERY early.

Enjoy the match mate

I was at the fan fest in cape town at 10 o'clock, and there was already a bunch of people. I think from about 1pm the places will be packed.... but then again, SA not playing.

Long Street wasn't officially closed last night, but when I went through just after the Bafana game, fans basically closed the streets themselves. There were just so many of them that they had to walk in the streets. And not many drivers minded too much, just turned around and found another way round.

I mean afterall, they didn't do too badly in their first match.

i think prices are the same as the stadiums, R15 for a coke, 30 for a beer (i think)
lots of food places too

Ouch, we're paying R14 for a beer at out fan fest. It's rebranded castle in generic cans, not Bud, so that might account for the difference.

i dont drink so could be wrong with the beer price, could be in the price at the stadiums only
