Sport Games Live Rugby & Events at DHL Stadium -- A Cape Coliving Nearby Experience The Experience DHL Stadium — originally built for the 2010 FIFA World Cup — is the home ground of the Stormers and WP Rugby, hosts the annual South Africa Sevens rugby tournament, and has a seating capacity of 55,000.
