About SA20 2027 — Durban
SA20 brings match days to Durban through its 2027 season, with the Durban's Super Giants playing their home games at Kingsmead across January and February (check the fixture list for exact dates). Kingsmead, a short walk from Durban's beachfront, is one of South Africa's most atmospheric grounds, and a warm, humid SA20 evening on the Indian Ocean coast — with a lively, knowledgeable crowd and cricket under lights — is a wonderful way to spend a summer night.
Durban is the country's beach capital, with the Golden Mile promenade, warm sea year-round and a rich Indian-South African food culture. Stay along the beachfront near the ground, within easy reach of the sand and the surf, and book early — Durban is busy through the South African summer holidays.

History
SA20, launched in January 2023, has become a highlight of the South African summer, and few venues suit its warm, festive mood better than Kingsmead in Durban. Home to Durban's Super Giants — beaten finalists in 2024 — the ground sits just a short walk from the city's famous Golden Mile beachfront, and a humid evening of cricket under lights beside the Indian Ocean, roared on by a lively and knowledgeable crowd, is one of the great pleasures of the league.
Durban is South Africa's beach capital, with a warm sea all year round, the long promenade of the Golden Mile and a rich Indian-South African food culture that gives the city its own distinctive flavour. Stay along the beachfront near the ground, within easy reach of the sand and the surf, and book early, as Durban is busy through the South African summer holidays. It is a wonderfully relaxed base for a cricket escape.
