Betway SA20 Cricket Festival at Wanderers

Joburg Admin / December 17, 2025

December 26 – January 25, 2026

This January, Johannesburg turns up the heat as Betway SA20 brings cricket, culture and full-on family fun to Wanderers Stadium. The space becomes a high-energy festival playground this season, so you're in for days packed with sport, entertainment, and unforgettable vibes. Click here to see all the fixtures!

What Can I Expect At Betway SA20?

This is so much more than just cricket. It's a full-scale lifestyle experience designed for families, sports fans and anyone keen to start the year on a high. From the moment gates open, local performers will deliver big Joburg energy through music, rhythm and street-style entertainment. Expect colour, movement and an electric atmosphere that keeps the buzz going all day long.

Kids are front and centre at Betway SA20. Gates open three hours before each match. For the first hour, young fans are invited onto the field to play. Have the kids bring a bat and a soft ball; they'll enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime chance to be part of the action before the pros take over (weather permitting). Off the field, there’s even more fun with stilt walkers, balloon artists and face painters keeping little ones entertained.

The festive spirit runs throughout the tournament with giveaways, surprise activations, and pop-up moments. Fans can expect merchandise drops, interactive experiences, and plenty of memory-making moments across the stadium.

Feeling Lucky?

There’s also a serious chance to win big. Betway’s Catch R2 Million competition rewards a clean one-handed catch. That's not all, either. Suzuki is also giving away a brand new Suzuki Swift GL+. Absa cardholders enjoy ticket discounts and stand a chance to win up to R200 000 at every live match. Switch is handing out R5 000 at each game, and Castle Lite is back with its always-popular spin-and-win wheel.

Music lovers can join the iconic #PutYourHandsUp stadium moment and follow the official Betway SA20 Spotify playlist. It's full of tournament favourites to keep the jol going between overs.

For those wanting something extra, premium hospitality packages are available with elevated catering, premium seating and a next-level match-day experience. Numbers are limited, so book at http://www.sa20.co.za/!
