Today is 1 year to the opening of the FIFA World Cup in South Africa.
Ticket sales started today
8 months ago
The on-line ticketing system went live today. A very fair system is in place where a lottery will decide who gets tickets, if any match is oversubscribed. So whether you put in a bid today or on the last day of this 1st round of ticket sales, your chance of success is the same.
Later on, any tickets still available can be bought on a first-come, first serve basis.
PS the Stadium in Durban is starting to look good.
