And all the stops have been pulled out to make this event one that the Mother City is going to remember for a long, long time.

Over 3 000 people have been involved in the Final Draw and preparations for this event have been under way for almost a year, a good 10% of whom are volunteers.

A proudly South African event, local companies have rallied around, providing structures, creativity and enthusiasm on a scale never seen before.

The event will be broadcast live at 19h00 to an estimated audience of 150-million viewers in 200 countries.

Over 15 000 fans are expected to gather in the official party area - renowned Long Street - to hear the results ... and celebrate until the wee, wee hours ...
