Hiring the Bullring

The cost to hire Wanderers Stadium varies depending on the specific area, the type of event, and the facilities required.

The DP World Wanderers Stadium didn’t respond to The Citizen’s price enquiries at the time of print.

People can also book a spot in the Sun Zone or the Family Area, where prices ranged between R3,750 and R7,500 per day in 2022, according to the Gauteng Cricket Board’s website.

A few hours before her son’s birthday, Alakhe, Wanderers Stadium hosted the Women’s Day concert, which US singer Anthony Hamilton headlined alongside Mzansi crooner, Vusi Nova, Sjava and Zonke. The US’ Joe Thomas was also part of the line-up.

Star-studded 10th birthday

The party, which was filled with Alakhe’s friends, also had the likes of Trevor Noah and Sizwe Dhlomo in attendance.

Sharing photos of Alakhe from the past, Mdoda posted pictures of her son with Noah, Dhlomo and another with former Formula 1 driver Daniel Ricciardo.

When someone commented on the photos of Alakhe with some of the world’s most recognisable faces, Mdoda said, “I don’t know anyone who likes cars more than him.”

Sunday also saw Madoda’s father celebrate his 70th birthday.
