South Africans will be able to watch 2010 Fifa World Cup matches at no charge via national broadcaster South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) at public viewing events and in bars after the SABC agreed a deal with FIFA.
Fifa general secretary, Jerome Valcke, said that the SABC did not need a licence to broadcast the Fifa Confederations Cup in 2009 or the 2010 Fifa World Cup.
Pubs, clubs, restaurants and bars would also not need to apply for a broadcasting licence if these establishments did not charge admission fees or participate in sponsorship activities.
"It is extremely important for us that the first Fifa World Cup in Africa touches as broad an audience as possible, not only those inside the World Cup stadiums, in the most meaningful way” , Valcke said.
The announcement comes after months of negotiations.
