Joburg's Festive Showstopper: Betway SA20

Joburg Admin / December 17, 2025

This festive season, give the gift of a family fun-filled experience with a day out at Betway SA20, where cricket culture and entertainment collide. Johannesburg is gearing up for its biggest summer celebration as The Wanderers transforms into a vibrant festival playground. The fun starts on 26 December, with SA20 blockbuster match days from New Year’s Day to 23 January 2026 for the play-offs! This is a full-scale lifestyle experience built for families, sports fans and anyone ready to start the new year with unforgettable energy. Here's everything turning The Bullring into the hottest entertainment corner of the city.

What's In Store

Local Performers: Expect bursts of local entertainers bringing the sound and spirit of the city to the concourse. They'll be delivering colour, rhythm and big Joburg energy.

Fun-filled activities for kids: Gates open 3 hours before the start of each match. Young fans are invited onto the field for the first hour and are encouraged to bring a bat and a soft ball. They'll have a unique chance to play and be part of the action before the match begins (weather dependent). In addition to cricket, the fun includes stilt walkers, balloon artists, and face painters.

Festive Action

Festive Giveaways & Surprise Activations: Get hype for Christmas cheer, New Year’s Eve excitement, and plenty of extra summer surprises. Expect merchandise drops, festive pop-ups, and memory-making moments throughout the stadium. This isn't something you want to let pass you by!

Switch will be giving away R5K at each match, and Castle Lite is back with their spin-and-win wheel.

Plus, fans can join the #PutYourHandsUp stadium moment and follow the official Betway SA20 Spotify playlist, packed with tournament favourites.
