Western Cape Department of Cultural Affairs and Sport hosts Netball World Cup at public viewing centres

Support the Netball World Cup at public viewing centres across the province

The highly anticipated Netball World Cup starts in Cape Town on Friday, 28 July 2023. This tournament will not only be the first to be hosted on African soil, but it will also play an important role in giving the local economy a boost of an estimated R68 million. 

While all matches are being played in Cape Town, the Western Cape Department of Cultural Affairs and Sport (DCAS) has partnered with municipalities across the province to host public viewing centres, so that residents everywhere can have access to watching the live matches.
