IF you hear of any other Fan Malls please let MyZA know where in the comments section below.
Eight of the biggest shopping malls in South Africa will be decked out in green and gold in the next couple of months as fans will be given the opportunity to share in the gees at the MTN Springbok Fan Malls in Gauteng, KZN, the Free State, and the Western Cape.
Springbok Fan Malls will be set up in conjunction with SA Rugby and some of its commercial partners at Menlyn Park (Pretoria), Mall of Africa, Nelson Mandela Square, Eastgate (Johannesburg), Gateway (Durban), Mimosa Mall (Bloem), as well as Canal Walk and Tyger Valley Shopping Centre (Cape Town).
All these malls are fitted with generators and therefore not impacted by loadshedding, which means Bok fans can enjoy the Tests without any unnecessary interruptions, while creating a unique atmosphere – almost similar to that of a live stadium experience – as they get together to support their favourite team in action in France.
Apart from the rugby, which will be shown on a big screen, there will be live entertainment, professional punditry, and loads to eat and drink.
Springbok headline sponsor MTN, as well as other SA Rugby partners in Betway, Toyota, Switch Energy Drink and FlySafair will be involved.
Castle Lager and Klipdrift will be providing liquid refreshments, Freddy Hirsch will be showcasing their special Bok Wors and BokWurst, Betway will be giving all fans a free bet – up to R1000 – Toyota will be giving away a vehicle in an exciting competition and FlySafair will give away flight tickets.
MTN Springbok Fan Malls:
- Pretoria: Menlyn Park
- Johannesburg: Mall of Africa, Nelson Mandela Square and Eastgate
- Durban: Gateway
- Bloemfontein: Mimosa Mall
- Cape Town: Canal Walk and Tyger Valley Shopping Centre

Japan was the first Asian nation to reach the knockout stages of the Rugby World Cup – In 2019, Japan hosted the Rugby World Cup. Not only were they the first Asian nation to host they Rugby World Cup, they also shocked the world by beating Scotland to reach the knockout stages for the first time in history. Though they were eventually stopped by South Africa in the quarter-finals, they stole our hearts with the way they played. They also showed that taking rugby to new nations is the way forward to grow the game’s popularity.
