For the past month, local prop builders and artists have been painting an 80-metre backdrop depicting a rugby stadium to convert ICC Durban for the South Africa vs Scotland rugby world cup match on October 3. The backdrop will be wrapped around the walls and stage area to ensure that guests enjoying the coverage of the game on giant 8-metre screens will feel they are actually at the real thing.

Local entertainers Aaron McIlroy and Lisa Bobbert will be giving a surprise rugby send-up following the discussions on the match, conducted by Alan Khan, Ian Macintosh, Hugh Reece Edwards and Andre Joubert. Tickets from Ticketweb include parking, food and drinks with a buffet available after the match.
