British rapper, Dizzee Rascal, has cancelled his show at Cape Town’s Biggest Football Party at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC) on Wednesday night, and has been replaced by Cape zef rap-rave crew, Die Antwoord.
Die Antwoord, who became famous through their YouTube videos, energetic concerts and amusing personae, have a huge following in South Africa and other parts of the world. Their controversial singles, such as Enter the Ninja and Fish Paste, will have you bobbing to the beat and laughing at the same time.

In addition to the party, there are three 2010 FIFA World Cup™ matches taking place on the day: Honduras vs Chile at 13h30, Spain vs Switzerland at 16h00 and South Africa vs Uruguay at 20h30. While these games are taking place outside Cape Town, those in the Mother City can watch on one of the six big screens in the CTICC arena, which will be open from noon until 03h00 the next morning.
Tickets are R400, available from Computicket.
