Concert organisers are expecting record-breaking figures for the South African leg of U2’s 360 Degree tour.
Tickets for the two shows in South Africa, one in Johannesburg and one in Cape Town, will go on sale this weekend.
Cape Town Stadium can hold 55,000 people while the FNB Stadium, where U2 will perform on 13 February, can hold more than 100,000 people standing.
This would make it the country’s single biggest show ever, pipping Robbie Williams who performed to 60,000 people at Loftus in Pretoria in 2006.
According to organisers, it would also make it U2’s biggest concert surpassing the 96,000 people the super group performed to in California last year.
Computicket will sell tickets from 9am on Saturday for U2’s first show in South Africa since they toured the country in 1998.
