Tickets for Scorpion Kings Live at FNB Stadium went live on Monday, May 5, 2026, and the excitement is high among fans.
Immediately when the website went live, patrons were lining up ready to purchase their tickets, creating a whole queue room with thousands waiting. This prompted the available tickets to be sold out, leaving many hopefuls disappointed.
DJ Maphorisa addressed fans in a Live on Instagram and TikTok, where he addressed the cries from fans about the tickets. He thanked fans for the support, revealing almost 500000 people were in the queue waiting to buy tickets.
He also explained that they had a strategy that would accommodate those who have pay dates on the 15th and 25th of the month.
The hitmaker left the decision-making in the hands of the fans, giving them two options. He gave the people a choice between the two options: add a second date or release 40% of the remaining tickets.
At the end of the live, it was decided that the link would be reopened at 5.00 pm to sell the remaining 40% of tickets. But some fans are still pushing for a second date for the concert, which will only be decided once the tickets all sell out.
After pulling off a landmark show at Loftus Versfeld Stadium last year, Scorpion Kings, who consist of kings of amapiano Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa, are attempting to fill up FNB Stadium, which has a capacity of 80,000 fans
Despite all the complaints last year’s concert had, people are eager for another installment of the concert, which delivered performances of the hitmakers’ top songs featuring their collaborators and international act Davido.
