The published capacity is 19,000. Ground facts on this site are published figures only, and the capacity figure carries a note that SA20 has not reconfirmed it for 2027, so it is shown as published rather than as a current official figure.
These two sides already met in match 22 on 06 Feb 2027 at Boland Park. This game is the return meeting, with the home side switched. It is one of two games on Saturday: the other is match 28, Durban's Super Giants against Joburg Super Kings at Kingsmead, starting at 13:00 SAST in a different city, so the two games cannot both be watched in person.
