Ellis Park Stadium Johannesburg Sports

Arena / Stadium · Johannesburg, Gauteng

Ellis Park Stadium is one of the most historically significant sports venues in South African history — a 61,000-capacity Johannesburg arena where the 1995 Rugby World Cup Final between South Africa and New Zealand produced one of the most emotionally transformative sporting moments of the 20th century, when President Nelson Mandela wore Springbok captain Francois Pienaar's jersey to present the World Cup trophy and symbolically unite a deeply divided nation. The "rainbow nation" moment at Ellis Park remains one of the most powerful intersections of sport, politics, and national healing in world sporting history.
