Vodacom Challenge football fever is taking SA by storm, and while Orlando Pirates, Kaizer Chiefs, TP Mazembe and ASV Club lace up their boots for big time on-field action, the nationwide Vodacom Challenge Parties are set to up the jive in preparation for this year's football extravaganza.

With the Vodacom Challenge match tickets on sale at Computicket at R30 (Mmabatho), where Orlando Pirates will face ASV Club and defending champions Chiefs take on TP Mazembe on July 11, the stage is set for the final of all finals to be held at Soccer City, Johannesburg on July 17, with tickets on sale at Computicket at R50 each.

The Vodacom Challenge Parties kicked off in Bloemfontein at La Rocka on June 26 at 20:00, with DJ's Glen Lewis, Tubais, Sefate and DJ Fresh spinning the disks, before the beat moves to Cape Town's Match on July 2, with Oskido, Monde, Odwa and Slender mixing the music.

The Vodacom Challenge Parties will stop over in Durban on July 3, with DJ's Tira, Socks, T-bose and Monde in action, before making a turn at Nine Thirty in East London on July 9, with Christos, Monde and T-bose on the decks.

Vodacom Challenge beanies will be given to the first 500 persons to go through the door at each of the Vodacom Challenge Parties, so football fans are advised to arrive early at the entertainment venues to avoid disappointment.
