Should you be experiencing a problem with your neighbour’s volume please contact the Venue Operations Centre on 031 314 1646.

VODACOM DURBAN JULY – EARLY CLOSING TIME
Because of its size and the difficulty of policing such a large property a decision was taken some years ago, on advice from a variety of safety and security role players, to close the event at 22h00. After consultation, a decision has been taken for the 2012 event, to relax this restriction and to close at 23h00 sharp.

Although this decision will allow party goers to enjoy an extra hour the event will close at 11h00 under the control of Event Security and the South African Police.

Members of the race-going public are requested to respect these efforts to protect their safety and are asked to comply with the above arrangements. We appeal to all to respect these efforts.

BEREA S.A.P.S.
Berea S.A.P.S. will have an operating Community Service Centre on site for your convenience located behind the Grandstand near the Avondale Road Entrance.

AFTER ELEVEN
Please be advised that, although there are many after parties planned in other areas of the city aimed at Vodacom Durban July attendees, there is only one Official After Party. This will take place within the Greyville Racecourse area at the DLI Hall. The after party will have its own parking arrangements and no vehicles will be allowed into the golf course or racecourse parking areas after 19h00.

For your safety a VOC (Venue Operations Centre) will be in operation at Greyville Racecourse on raceday. Please report any unruly or suspicious behaviour or other incidents to the VOC on 031 314 1646.
