Two CHAN 2014 competitions on today in Cape Town

For fans' convenience, event transport services will include stadium shuttle services, park-and-ride facilities, trunk and feeder services, after-hours bus routes and free train and MyCiTi bus rides for passengers with match tickets.

"International tournaments such as Orange CHAN bring together South Africans from all walks of life and help to grow Cape Town as an international soccer city and the events capital of Africa. This in turn boosts tourism and the local economy as these events draw fans and media from across the continent, placing the city in the pan-African spotlight," said the city's mayoral committee member for tourism, events and marketing, Councillor Grant Pascoe.

Tickets are being sold in three phases as the teams vie for victory, and will range from R40 to R200. The Phase 2 ticket sales campaign currently underway offers fans discounts of up to 15%. Tickets are available countrywide from Shoprite/Checkers stores and Computicket outlets.
