Introduction

Moses Mabhida Stadium is Durban most iconic modern building, built for the 2010 South Africa World Cup and named after former South African Communist Party general secretary Moses Mabhida. The stadium can accommodate about 56,000 spectators, with design inspired by the Y-shape of the South African flag, creating a unique and elegant form. The landmark feature is the 106-metre high arch roof, where visitors can take a cable car to the top for panoramic views of the city and Indian Ocean. The stadium also has a sports museum and conference centre, hosting football, rugby, concerts and other major events. It is not only a sports temple but also a Durban landmark and outstanding example of modern architectural art.
