One of the best stadiums in the world. Not very far off from the Capetown center. Beautiful view of table mountains in the backdrop. Nice food counters , electric atmosphere with a good sound system . Attentive & responsible staff. Remember to not to take any metallic items in a bag ( drop even deo , sunscreen ) .

My Anyhoo's....it's been a while since I've been to Newlands, 9 years to be exact. And I must say that it's not the Newlands I remember. The seats were dirty, they had old massive signs stored at the back of the seats. Two food stalls open, toilet paper didn't get replaced in the ladies room...I was quite taken a back and a disappointed. The president's suites were spotless though...😒😏 the least they could have done was clean the seats...So 👍...and Until next time...😉
