South Africa is the proud host of the Football World Cup 2010. It's a good idea to start planning now for your trip to the first African World Cup. As Africa's most powerful tourist magnet, South Africa draws thousands of international visitors each year.
Combine this with the 2010 Football World Cup — billed as the biggest sporting event of all time — and you have a situation in which masses of people are going to be trying to book a limited number of flights, accommodation, tickets and more.
The FIFA 2010 World Cup will be held in nine cities across South Africa from 11 June 2010 and it will be concluded with the final game, 11 July 2010. Thousands of people will visit South Africa during this period, and the matches will have an estimated cumulative worldwide audience of around 6 billion people.
