I have a disabled friend who has tickets to Ellis Park. Where can we park as he uses a wheel chair.
If you are being dropped off at Abel and Joe Slovo Road by a car, what do you do next? They keep telling me we are taking a shuttle bus, but do not understand the pick up point, drop off point or if we are going to need tickets for the shuttle. It seems very close to the stadium so not exactly sure why we would need a shuttle from that point. Wondering if I’m completely mixed up?
