The wait is over! Tickets for the most anticipated fixture in the South African football calendar—the second and final Soweto Derby of the 2025/26 season—are officially on sale. As Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates prepare for their 185th official meeting, fans are urged to act quickly to secure their seats for the ultimate battle for bragging rights.
Following a historic 3-0 victory for the Buccaneers in February, Amakhosi will be looking for revenge in front of a capacity crowd at the iconic FNB Stadium.
New Date, Public Holiday Atmosphere
To accommodate logistical requirements around the Nasrec precinct, the derby has been officially rescheduled to Sunday, 26 April 2026.
