The LOC is optimistic that the local hospitality industry will be the biggest winner from the absence of fan parks for the tournament.
“Although there will be no official fan parks for the Confederations Cup, the atmosphere around the host cities, and also the rest of the country, will be electric as the top teams in the world battle it out on our own soil,” says an optimistic LOC spokesperson Rich Mkhondo.
The LOC says those in the hospitality industry can do good business during the tournament in June.
