If you're asking yourself: 'when will the tickets for the 2010 Soccer World Cup be for sale':

The CEO of SA's 2010 FIFA World Cup local organising committee, Danny Jordaan, urged South African football fans to get into the habit of buying their world cup tickets in good time. He warned that from as early as 2008, South Africans would be "fighting" for2010 World Cup tickets with fans from all around the world.

It is estimated that about 2.7-million World Cup 2010 tickets worth about R4.6-billion (600 million euro) will be on sale for the prestigious sports event.

Jordaan explained there was a tradition within South Africa's football fraternity of buying tickets only a few hours before kick-off.

"If one wakes up on the morning of the match and decides to go and watch a game between Bafana Bafana and Brazil, for instance, they should not be surprised when they are forced to go and watch that game on television", Jordaan said.
