Loftus Versfeld Stadium (Loftus) is one of South Africa's oldest and most established stadiums. The site has been used for sports events since 1903 and the first concrete structure, which could accommodate 2 000 spectators, was built by the City Council of Pretoria in 1923. Since 1948 it has been upgraded continuously and has hosted numerous international events, sporting and otherwise. As such, Loftus underwent relatively minor upgrades to meet the stringent FIFA requirements.
Loftus is home to the Premier Soccer League clubs, Mamelodi Sundowns and Supersport United as well as the rugby union club, the Blue Bulls.
Loftus seats 50 000 fans and will host five group matches and one round of 16 match.
Seeff Properties has a specialised division, Seeff Rentals, with dedicated and highly trained rental property agents able to assist you with any queries you may have in finding accommodation in Pretoria for the duration of the 2010 soccer tournament.
